The VD Signature Routine

"For the last nine months, I've quietly been building something in skincare, for all of us. It's called Unhype. I didn't want to launch anything that didn't meet my own standard. Products that work, fully backed by science, where I know exactly what's in them and why. Then I met a team that owns their R&D and manufacturing, and they didn't want me to just be the face, they wanted me to co-build it. I tried every single version on my own face. Nine months later, here we are. No BS. Only what works."
— Vijay Deverakonda, co-founder

Questions

Straight answers.

  • An SPF number means little without proof behind it. The in-vitro test measures the UV filters in a lab; the in-vivo test measures the actual SPF on human skin. Testing both ways is the gold standard. It's how you know SPF 50 PA++++ is real-world protection, not just a calculated figure. Ours is validated both ways by an independent lab.
  • UV darkens every healing breakout. Marks that would fade in weeks become months. Pollution further clogs your pores. Sunscreen isn't optional in an acne routine. It's what stops the loop restarting.
  • 1 · Face wash. Cool water, massage 30 to 40 sec, rinse well, pat dry (don't rub). 2 · Moisturiser. One to two pumps on slightly damp skin, wait 30 sec. 3 · Sunscreen. Two-finger rule across face and neck; reapply every 3 to 4 hours outdoors. PM is the same, minus the sunscreen. Patch-test before use. Used morning and night, the routine lasts about 30 days.
  • Patch-test before use. The base is sulphate-free and paraben-free, no alcohol, no soap base, so it cleans without stripping. If your skin is new to actives, start once a day and build up.
  • A short adjustment period can happen when introducing active ingredients like salicylic acid. You may notice a few small breakouts initially as existing congestion comes to the surface. This is referred to as purging. However, not every reaction is purging. If your skin feels irritated, or you experience persistent redness, burning, stinging or discomfort, stop using the product and give your skin a break. Patch-test before use and introduce the routine gradually.
  • Yes. That's menthol and menthyl lactate, kept below the sensitivity threshold. It's a fresh, cooling feel, not your skin reacting; cooling the skin even helps it make less oil. If you'd rather ease in, use the wash once a day to start.
  • Up front we name every active with its %, No BS. The complete INCI for all three products is on our INCI page.
  • Skin doesn't run to a schedule. And results don't happen overnight. What you can expect is progress over weeks. First, less shine. Then, fewer breakouts. Finally, marks fading.
  • Active cystic or Grade 3 to 4 acne is a dermatologist's call, not a skincare routine. See one first. And if you're on prescription retinoids or actives, check with your doctor before layering.
