Why Nearly 50,000 Customers Trust The Skin Proof for Authentic Skincare

Who We Are

The Skin Proof is Bangladesh's invoice-verified skincare marketplace. We were started by a software quality engineer who was tired of watching friends and family buy "branded" serums online that turned out to be fakes — sometimes harmful ones. So we applied the same discipline used to test software to one simple promise: every product we sell is genuine, in-date, and traceable to its source. Nearly 50,000 customers now shop with us for that single reason — they don't have to gamble on whether what they bought is real.

The Problem We Exist to Solve

An estimated 86% of skincare sold online in Bangladesh is counterfeit. A fake "vitamin C" or "retinol" is, at best, inert — it does nothing. At worst it contains mercury, steroids, or industrial bleach. Lab-tested counterfeits here have shown mercury from 1,000 to over 40,000 ppm — the safe limit is 1 ppm. Expired stock is its own trap: the actives break down, the preservatives fail, and a product that was once genuine can now irritate or infect your skin. Online, "cheap and branded" very often means fake or near-expiry.

Why We Only Sell Authentic Products

We don't list a product until we can prove it's real — that's the entire company. When you buy from us, you get:

• A genuine product from a verified supply chain.
• An in-date product, with batch and expiry checked.
• A 2× money-back guarantee — if anything we sell is ever proven counterfeit, we refund double the price and cover return shipping.

That guarantee is only possible because we've already done the verification. We're not asking you to trust a promise — we're showing our work.

Why Our Price Is a Little Higher Than the Fake and Expired Sellers

This is the honest part. A counterfeit or expired product is cheaper to sell because it costs almost nothing to source. We can't — and won't — match that price, because we're not selling the same thing. Our price reflects:

• Genuine product bought through legitimate, invoice-backed channels — not grey-market goods or refilled bottles.
• In-date stock — we don't dump expiring inventory on you at a discount.
• Verification — invoice audits, batch checks, and lab testing cost real money.
• The 2× guarantee — we can only stand behind it because the product is real.

A simple rule: if a "branded" product is dramatically cheaper than everywhere else, it is almost always fake, refilled, or close to expiry. With us you pay a little more and know exactly what you are putting on your skin. That difference isn't a markup on the product — it's the cost of certainty.

How We Verify Every Batch and Product

Authenticity doesn't start at delivery — it starts before a product is ever listed. Every item passes through the same gates:

1. Source & seller verification. We check purchase invoices and supplier documentation. A seller cannot list a product without proving where it legitimately came from. Brand pages are admin-managed, not seller-edited, so no one can misrepresent a brand.

2. Batch & expiry check. Every batch is logged with its batch number and expiry date. Near-expiry stock does not go on sale.

3. Lab batch testing. Where possible, we batch-test samples with third-party labs — the same way you would test a suspicious product for mercury or steroids.

4. Public batch verification. Each parcel carries a code you can check yourself, so authenticity isn't just our word.

5. The 2× guarantee as a backstop. If all of that ever fails, you are protected — double your money back.
