Microalga Solutions (MAS) has launched Synbiötik Phycoskin. This is described as a bioactive, multifunctional ingredient based on biofilms called phytoplankton holobionts found in the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea, which are sourced via a combination of bioengineering and green lab-grown systems.
Synbiötik Phycoskin, the company says, “cooperates with the skin’s microbiota to achieve a perfect synbiotic combination”. It combats the effects of dysbiosis, an imbalance of the skin microbiota caused by stress, overexposure to UV rays and pollution, such as an increased pH level and overproduction of sebum.
The product provides oligosaccharides and functional molecule, such as vitamins, protein, and antioxidants. The former nourish microbiota, promoting the growth of beneficial bacteria and preventing the proliferation of pathogenic bacteria, while the latter help to reduce sebum and skin pH and protect against dehydration.
Synbiötik Phycoskin is supplied as a encapsulated ingredient and is easy to combine in serum and creams in the cold phase at the end of the manufacture process, MAS added.
