It’s an all too-familiar phenomenon: your hormones go haywire and your skin goes along for the ride. To combat these monthly dermal fluctuations the Swiss offer the Imago skin care line, daily serum capsules calibrated to meet the varying demands of skin during your hormonal cycle.

A rotating disk holds colorful sperm-shaped capsules that you spread on each day. Three different formulas treat a variety of skin types: The Cyclogram disk has a tri-phased approach with blue, pink and white capsules applied at various times during your menstrual cycle to provide strength, prevent moisture loss, and regulate natural lipid production; and there’s the dual-phased Menogram disk, which restores moisture to mature or dry skin, and the Dermagram disk which works best for sensitive skin.
