[edit] Company background

Founded in 2004, the line originated from studies conducted by Dr. Joely Kaufman and skincare professionals in an academic research project to develop products for men with athletic and highly-active lifestyles. Since that time, the line has expanded to include shaving, sun protection, acne and anti-aging treatments.

Following the company's mission statement to educate men on new ingredients and grooming techniques in clear terms, the products are packaged in basic white boxes and containers that state the active ingredients as well as directions on how to use the products and what the benefits are. Likewise, the theme of education is continued through MenScience's website. New online articles are uploaded to the site every two weeks, a lengthy Question & Answer section covers inquiries and a monthly newsletter focuses on one aspect of grooming and one highlighted product each month.

[edit] Meaning of "Androceuticals"

The term "Androceuticals" was created by the company from a combination of the word "pharmaceuticals" and the prefix "Andro" (Greek for "men"). Pharmaceuticals are a category of products formulated with active ingredients and used by doctors and skincare professionals to treat skin.
