When our skin flares up, finding a solution can be really tricky and can often involve chopping and changing between various different products.
And through no fault of our own, some products can simply make it worse.
In recent years, personalised skincare has taken the beauty world by storm, with a number of brands offering customised skincare solutions, hand-picked by doctors to assist with your unique skin concerns.

Rather than getting in line at the GP or popping your name on a waiting list see a dermatologist, these brands are able to assist you over the phone — so you don’t even need to leave the house.
Tailored to treat a wide variety of skin conditions such as melasma, acne and rosacea, the aim of personalised skincare is to help you feel comfortable and confident in your skin again.
QR8 Mediskin
For those with specific skin conditions who want to reclaim their confidence as we enter 2025, QR8 may just be the next step in your skin journey.
Founded by Dr Michele Squire, PhD scientist and former healthcare executive and registered nurse, QR8 (pronounced curate) offers personalised skin consultations, expert advice and tailored skin treatments.
One-on-one consultations with a team of Aussie-registered doctors and nurses are provided, after you submit a range of high-quality photos of your skin. The medical experts are able to determine which treatment is best suited and guide you along the way.
The Secret Skincare
Home to Australia’s first medical-grade skincare range, The Secret Skincare also offers customisable products specific to a variety of concerns.
Offering a simple three-step process to personalised skincare, you’ll have the option to choose between medical grade skincare or custom formulas. The Secret requires a medical questionnaire to be filled in so that a doctor can decipher and tailor products to best suit your skin’s needs.
Once approved, they will arrive at your door! All of the formulas are vegan, cruelty free, and made without parabens or fragrances.
Software
For those who have a better understanding of their skin, Skin Software is a great option to create a custom formula.
Start by answering a quiz regarding your skin goals, type and concerns, then a practitioner will review your information and prescribe a personalised product. You’ll receive regular online check-ins, which are included in the price.
Software has a reformulation promise, so if you’re not happy with your formula, they can reformulate it at no extra cost.
