The industry gold standard of measuring hyperpigmentation potential has been the Fitzpatrick Skin Phototype. Originally intended as a purely visible assessment of eye color and skin tone, it is now easily intermingled in skin care professional vocabulary. However, there are many other scales, some potentially more deductive and useful. In this episode of ASCP Esty Talk, Ella and Maggie explore skin phototyping beyond just the basic (and potentially antiquated) Fitzpatrick Scale.

About Ella Cressman:
Ella Cressman is a licensed esthetician, certified organic formulator, business owner, and absolute ingredient junkie! As an educator, she enjoys empowering other estheticians and industry professionals to understand skin care from an ingredient standpoint rather than a product-specific view.
She has spent many hours researching ingredients, understanding how and where they are sourced, as well as phytochemistry, histological access, and complementary compounds for intentional skin benefits. In addition to running a skin care practice, Cressman founded a comprehensive consulting group, the HHP Collective, and has consulted for several skin care lines, including several successful CBD brands.
