Did you know that US skincare is ten years behind Japanese?
Reason 1: the highest production quality. It’s no secret that Japan is extremely technologically advanced, and Japanese people are super pedantic regarding their job.
Meaning when Summus is produced, the purity level in a lab is higher than in a typical US medical factory. All personnel wear a special sterile (which can be used just once) suit and must go through the full body disinfection procedure before entering the production area.
Reason 2: active ingredients. When a generic US brand has 2 or 3 active ingredients in a single product… Summus has up to 12, from Niacinamide and 3D Hyaluronic Acid to Collagen and Vitamin C.
Moreover, US brands often outsource its production to cheap Chinese manufacturers, leading to worse quality control.
Does it make the production cost higher than a typical mass-market brand? Yes. But does it make the effectiveness tenfold higher? Absolutely. Instead of using dozens of products, you can use just 2-3 and have even better results.
Reason 3: this point is irrelevant to skincare’s effectiveness but is super important from the ethical side. The thing is, all skincare made in Japan is completely cruelty-free and made sustainably. It’s illegal by law to harm animals during the production process.
Moreover, all-natural ingredients used in Japanese products are harvested locally and in an environmentally friendly way. On the downside, yes, it raises the cost of production. But, at the same time, whenever you buy Japanese skincare, you ensure you do not multiply evil in the world.
