Custom Skincare Business: Learn Pharmaceutical Compounding
Skincare Formulation: From Basic to Advanced Levels
Delve into Dr.TWL’s apothecary as you are coached by the expert herself on how to start your very own customised skincare business. This 4 hour 44 minute course is split into 2 main modules, each with several subsections. The first jumps right into the practical aspects of how an effective small scale compounding business model works, the second is a complete grounding in basic to advanced theory of skincare ingredients. In this course, you’ll not just learn about the essentials in cosmeceutical theory, but also be empowered with tutorials designed for advanced practitioners, complete with pdf notes by the dermatologist herself.
Part 1 Crash Course in Compounding
*N.B. This course takes you through protocols meant for individuals with an intermediate to advanced understanding of skincare, for use in professional settings. DIY home made cosmetics are not within the scope of dermatologist-recommended skincare and do not qualify as cosmeceuticals. There will be links provided for raw material sourcing, though participants are recommended to also do their own research on availability based on their location.
There are two key small-medium scale business models you will be taught, based on Dr.TWL’s expertise as the head of Asia’s first dermatologist-led custom compounding skincare pharmacy. These two models are clinically tested in a dermatology practice with high efficacy and client retention rate. They are selected on the basis of its suitability for small-scale beauty entrepreneurs who may wish to offer a custom skincare service, specialising in cosmeceuticals.
Custom Medi-Essence Service

Skincare Plus Accelerate Program
Stand out from your competitors by guaranteeing an instant glow-up, with measurable results. Learn to manage client expectations with a solid grounding in skin science and evidence-backed skincare technologies. Offer outstanding service, establishing yourself as the go-to skin expert in your region. The program includes strategies on upselling high-yield skincare devices backed by the latest advancements in aesthetic medicine. The program is designed to complement the Custom Medi-Essence Service—building on the step-wise strategies of a unique, personalised skincare service offered by a trained expert. Dr.TWL teaches you how to select dermatologist-recommended skincare technologies and home-use devices that synergise with your customised essence service.
