Frequently Asked Questions

What is "Elastisome" in Firmalift?

Elastisome is Distinction's name for the elastin-based blend at the core of the Firmalift serum, built around Hydrolyzed Elastin along with Soluble Collagen and Silk Amino Acids to condition and support the look of firmer skin.

Are Distinction Skincare products tested and safe for all skin types?

Distinction products are formulated to be non-allergic and non-toxic, and are dermatologically tested. As with any skincare product, we recommend a patch test before full application, especially if you have sensitive skin. Browse our full product range to find the right fit.

What's the difference between Firmalift and Skin Renewal Booster?

Firmalift is a firming serum built around Elastisome (elastin, collagen, and silk amino acids) for fine lines and firmness. Skin Renewal Booster is a lightweight daily moisturizer with an MSM delivery system, Shea Butter, and botanical extracts, designed to hydrate and follow the serum in your routine. Save on both together in our Firmalift & Booster Duo.

How do the Mask Powder and Mask Activator work together?

Mask Powder (an albumen-based powder with corn starch, acacia, and vitamin C) is mixed with Mask Activator (an AHA-based liquid with glycolic acid and botanical extracts) to form a tightening treatment mask. The two are designed to be used together, not separately โ€” shop them as a set in our Instant Firming Combo.

What's included in the NSFL (Non-Surgical Facelift) Five-Piece Kit?

The NSFL Five-Piece Kit bundles all four core formulas โ€” Firmalift Serum, Skin Renewal Booster, Mask Powder, and Mask Activator โ€” plus a fan brush for mixing and applying the mask, giving you the complete Non-Surgical Face Lift System in one set.
