This is a giant load of horse shit lol. Firstly there's no way that dead skin cells could be biologically active in order to even be an active ingredient. Secondly, it's just common sense that medically they'd never get their hands on removed foreskin. This is some futurama type parody shit right here
You're actually wrong. They clone the foreskin and use the stem cells from it.

Culturing cells from living cells is not the same as cloning.
"It should be noted, however, that the makers of SkinMedica insist no actual human tissue is included in their final product" Because it would be a biohazard for one, and abhorrent.
Once it was developed they no longer need any foreskin cells. It's the same as the recent advent of creating "human embryos" for the stem cells without actually using human embryos.
... how does she get them en mass for the cream? Holy shit this is some evil stuff. I thought willingly mutilating your baby's penis was bad enough, but now YOU CAN RUB CUT UP BABY DICK ON YOUR FACE.
Most likely it’s a cell line derived from foreskin. You could start with one and just culture the cells.
Full stop...
Who thinks this bovine looks "fantastic"?
