ROELMI: PROBIOTIC-DERIVED INGREDIENT FOR LONG-TERM SKIN ECOSYSTEM WELL-BEING

HPC Today

The recent discovery of the existence of the ecosystem on the superficial layer of the skin is opening a series of studies on skin microbiota that will allow future developments in personal care field. Cosmetics are no longer focusing only on human epidermis, but considering the effect of products on skin environment, which varies a lot among people. Cosmetics should treat this microorganism’s community by protecting the natural stability and biodiversity, without altering its composition.

 

Targeting modern cosmetics, a new ally has been created. ROELMI HPC presents the brand-new active ingredient of its biotech portfolio: EquiBioticsTM LRh. A probiotic-derived ingredient obtained by L. rhamnosus LRH020, selected for its strain-specific activity focused on protection from skin pathogens and modulation of the immune response and developed through innovative biotechnological processes that preserve its structural integrity and, at the same time, amplify its cosmetic sensorial properties.

 

EquiBioticsTM LRh demonstrates high performing efficacy towards multifactorial aggressive agents such as UV rays, chemical agents also helping avoid pathogens colonization. Thanks to their “prebiotic” effect, it could become nourishment and metabolic support for resident microbiota growth. 

 

The result is the novel ability to strengthen skin barrier and its natural defenses promoting skin ecosystem well-being. The typical benefits that can be verified by traditional cosmetics such as moisturization, skin elasticity and wrinkle reduction are here recorded as secondary benefits that are obtained because of skin ecosystem well-being. 

 

KEY POINTS: 

– Skin ecosystem well-being 

– Skin microbiota defense 

– Skin barrier improvement 

– Molecular biomimetic behavior 

– Inhibition of pathogens proliferation 

– “Prebiotic” effect
