The B. Kamins, Chemist History

Ben Kamins, a leading Canadian chemist, developed a cosmeceutical skincare line that bridges the gap between the physician’s office and traditional cosmetic counters. The brand was the first in the market to to address skin conditions associated with menopause and rosacea, and continues to offer innovative products for problematic, sensitive, acne and extra dry skin, while also providing healing benefits for all skin types. The collection includes a wide selection of reparative treatments, moisturizers, cleansers, toners, masques, body and sun care products for men and women of all ages.

While on a winter fishing trip in Northern Canada, Ben Kamins noticed that the hearty maple trees surrounding the lakes were the only plant life to survive and thrive in the unforgiving climate. This incident inspired more than 30 years of research and led to the development of Bio-Maple™ compound, a formula proven to hydrate the driest of skins, fight fine lines and wrinkles and help enhance the turnover of new cells to reveal brighter, more energized skin.

Bio-Maple™ Compound is a synergistic naturally occurring balance of anti-oxidants, polyphenols, polysaccharides, mineral and AHA’s extracted and purified from select Canadian maple trees (acer saccharum).
