The skin's hydration is often impacted by an unhealthy microbiome, and this moisturizer has active ingredients that helps feed a select group of bacteria to promote overall balance.
This clean formula features chicory root derived inulin which functions as a prebiotic to feed a specific type of bacteria. These bacteria then improve productivity of the entire microbiome food web as they feed fungi and other bacteria. Clinical data shows that this material can counteract the negative action of preservative systems by promoting growth of the skin's natural flora, while also hydrating the skin 28% more effectively than hyaluronic acid.
This product is fragranced with grapefruit peel oil.
This product is cruelty free, 99% natural, and 100% free from:
- Parabens
- PEGs
- Sulfates
- Silicones

To use, apply to cleansed and toned skin, morning and/or night.
This gentle, creamy facial cleanser is designed to not harm the skin's delicate microbiome.
The base uses conditioning amino acid surfactants and does not strip away protective oils. Many organisms rely on sebum for food, which they convert into fatty acids to help maintain the skin's pH.
The base is also pH balanced to match the skin, further reducing potential harm to the skin's microbiome.
This cleanser features Sophorolipid, a glycolipid produced from fermentation that has prevented the overgrowth of c. albicans in clinical trials, as well as a biosurfactant that is produced by bacteria, yeast, and fungi.

This soap-free bar soap is intended to help balance the skin while cleansing, without stripping the skin or negatively impacting the microbiome.
This bar features Sophorolipid, a glycolipid produced from fermentation that has prevented the overgrowth of c. albicans in clinical trials, as well as a biosurfactant that is produced by bacteria, yeast, and fungi.
This formula also features noni extract, which has microbes that interact with each other using a system called quorum sensing. Biochemicals known as quormones are excreted and dispersed to the surrounding area, communicating with nearby microbes. Noni helps preserve the diversity of the skin's microflora by shutting down interspecies communication signals, promoting a balanced system.
Apple cider vinegar, a fermented product, contains bacteria that can support a healthy microme, much like yogurt does for the gut.

Soap-Free Base
Over-exfoliation and acidic toners can cause damage to the skin's microbiome. This toner is designed to minimize potential harm by slowly releasing AHAs in a manner that doesn't compromise the skin's pH.
This natural toner features 2% Resurfacid CR, an active ingredient made up of AHAs trapped in a lamellar gel network. At this level, it has 0.56% active AHAs which are stabilized in the gel format and released onto the skin's surface over time, and because of this performance, they have the chemical exfoliation power of a formula with 8% AHA activity. The slow release of this active ingredient minimizes irritation and impact to the microbiome, and the material is proven to reduce the appearance of acne scars, pigmentation, and blackheads, and in vivo testing shows no impact on skin's pH over time.
