The ART CLUB is the global home of pHformula education, a place where advanced science, creative thinking, and professional community come together. It is here that skin specialists from around the world deepen their expertise, refine their skills, and grow into confident, results-driven professionals.
At its heart, the ART CLUB represents the spirit of pHformula: challenging convention, embracing innovation, and elevating the standard of professional skin health.
ART CLUB Barcelona
Founded in 2010, the pHformula ART CLUB in Barcelona has become a globally recognised centre of excellence in dermatological skin resurfacing education.
Located in the heart of El Born, Barcelona’s historic and artistic district, the ART CLUB reflects the neighbourhood’s legacy of creativity and craftsmanship. Surrounded by inspiring architecture and culture, it provides the perfect setting for advanced learning and connection.
True to the spirit of pHformula, the International Education Team has created a purposeful and welcoming environment where the artistry of formulation is celebrated, knowledge is shared, and skin specialists from around the world come together to refine their skills as part of a global community.
At the ART CLUB, skin specialists undergo holistic training that covers skin histology, biochemistry, cosmetic chemistry, and medical aesthetics. This approach empowers skin specialists with an in-depth understanding of skin health and the resources required to perform some of the most advanced controlled chemical skin resurfacing treatments. These workshops provide a golden opportunity for those who aspire to excel in the realm of professional skincare and qualify as certified pHformula Artologists™.
Becoming a certified pHformula Artologist™ is a prestigious achievement.
pHformula Artologists™ are devoted experts with an unwavering passion for skin. They are not only well-versed in the art of personalised controlled skin resurfacing but also possess a solid academic foundation.
This level of expertise opens doors for skin specialists to refine advanced skills that can be applied worldwide, enhancing their capabilities in their own treatment spaces and aesthetic practices.
A Global Perspective
The pHformula education philosophy has always been about pushing boundaries, sharing knowledge, and empowering skin specialists through advanced training and connection. As the ART CLUB community grows globally, so does the opportunity to experience this philosophy through different cultures, perspectives, and learning environments.
ART CLUB South Africa.
Launched in 2025, the newest ART CLUB education facility in South Africa represents an exciting new chapter for pHformula. Rooted in the birthplace of the brand’s inspiration, South Africa offers a powerful and energising environment for learning.
Rich in culture, creativity, and a spirit of innovation, this vibrant hub is home to an exceptional team of educators who welcome both local and international skin specialists every week.
It is also a meaningful destination for the pHformula community, as founder Petru van Zyl’s journey began here, shaping the philosophy, vision, and passion that continue to define the brand today.
UBUNTU
At the heart of the South African ART CLUB experience is the spirit of Ubuntu: “I am because we are.”
A reminder that we grow through connection, that knowledge is shared not held, and that the strength of our professional community shapes the future of skin health.
Annual Conference
Each year, pHformula Australia hosts an exclusive ART CLUB Conference, bringing together pHformula skin specialists from across the country for an immersive experience of education, innovation, and connection.
This unique event offers the opportunity to deepen clinical expertise, explore new techniques, and connect with like-minded professionals in an inspiring international setting. More than just education, the conference is a chance to share knowledge, spark ideas, and return home re-energised, inspired, and ready to elevate clinical practice.
