Personalized Skincare Protocol Builder
Build science-backed skincare protocols customized to each client's skin type and concerns
What You Can Do
You can develop complete, individualized skincare protocols that account for skin barrier function, ingredient compatibility, and realistic client compliance. The skill generates morning and evening routines, weekly treatments, professional product recommendations with usage instructions, and realistic timelines for visible results—all customized based on client skin type, specific concerns (acne, hyperpigmentation, sensitivity, aging), and treatment goals. This accelerates your consultation process by 15-20 minutes while improving client outcomes and retail recommendations.
Features
Assess and categorize client skin as normal, dry, oily, combination, or sensitive to inform ingredient selection
Address multiple skin issues simultaneously by sequencing treatments into phases based on priority and ingredient compatibility
Recommend actives and products that work synergistically while avoiding conflicting ingredients that compromise results
Structure product application order (cleanser, toner, serums, treatments, moisturizer, SPF) for maximum efficacy and absorption
Align at-home skincare with professional services (facials, peels, laser) with pre/post-care protocols
Suggest realistic routines clients will actually follow, with simplified alternatives for busy schedules
Provide realistic timelines for visible results with progress milestones to keep clients engaged
Flag contraindications and build in barrier-repair phases for compromised or reactive skin

Activate Loki Mode to orchestrate a multi-agent team that autonomously takes any product specification—whether a Markdown PRD, GitHub issue, OpenAPI doc, or Jira ticket—and drives it through to deployment. The system makes decisions independently, coordinates across multiple AI providers (Claude, Codex, Gemini, Cline, Aider), and tracks progress through phases while maintaining state and handling failures gracefully.
