Tecniche

Tecniche specializes exclusively in sensitive skin care. The sensitive skin spectrum ranges from periodic sensitivity to the ultra-sensitive issues of health-challenged skin. This rapidly growing niche of potential spa guests want to experience luxurious and therapeutic treatments without the fear of exacerbating sensitivity. This is exactly what Tecniche delivers. Tecniche products are designed for both short- and long-term care of sensitive skin. In the short-term, the client’s skin will be soothed, comforted and balanced. Long-term, the slow introduction of gentle cutting-edge cosmeceutical ingredients will strengthen and revitalize a sensitive skin.

A group of women with backgrounds in aesthetics, educational training, and product development came together with a shared passion to create the Tecniche brand. Their incentive was seeing their own family members and friends struggle with sensitive skin issues from a variety of reasons, including health problems.
The founders established two goals as the heart of the company’s philosophy:

1. To create products, education and unique empowerment tools for those spas and wellness centers that share the same passion of bringing the pleasure of gentle touch and soothing, reparative treatments to sensitive and health-challenged guests.
2. To make the best products possible at a good value, so that price is not a detriment to someone juggling financial challenges along with red, irritated skin. 

Tecniche features both professional and retail products, including several stand-alone rescue products, which can simply complement, as opposed to replace, other professional lines. It is one of the few professional lines that do official dermatology testing on every product, to help ensure their suitability for sensitive skin. Tecniche products are tested to make a claim of gluten-free, are sulfate-free, paraben-free, and most products are free of added fragrance. When fragrance is added, it is a natural fragrance. More clients are sensitive to fragrance topically, or find it problematic if dealing with health issues.
When Tecniche was in the early stages, those family and friends with sensitive skin (and health) issues were the original testers of the products. Their testimonials are what accelerated the determination of the founders to build the company and the core goals.
