PROTECT: zero preservatives for maximum softness
Water-based cosmetics contain preservatives. These are antimicrobial agents: they prevent bacteria, yeast and mold from contaminating your treatment. Except that these antimicrobial agents are also found on your skin and can therefore create stress for your resident flora. Hence one of the solutions to protect it: banning conservatives.
This is what the DUOLAB brand has managed to do with its Absolute Purity Process protocol. This patented technology is based on years of R&D around formulas, packaging and manufacturing processes. The idea: split your moisturizing cream into 2 capsules ( 1 Moisturizing Base + 1 Concentrated Booster ) whose contents are then emulsified without contact by a formulator, the LAB.
This innovation allows you to apply a daily moisturizing treatment to your skin entirely without preservatives. DUOLAB treatments are labeled “KIND TO BIOME”, which means that they respect the balance of the skin microbiota. They thus act as closely as possible to the nature of the skin, which is why 100% of users consider them more effective than their usual treatment from the first use (*).
If you want to start a 0% preservative moisturizing routine, opt for one of the brand's Starter Sets. You can choose yours according to your current skin concerns: Firming, Soothing, Radiance boost, Anti-dark spots or even Skin perfector.
MODULATE: care with prebiotics and probiotics
You can integrate cosmetics into your routine that will help maintain the balance of your microbiota and prevent any disruption. In other words, these treatments are there to pamper your “good bacteria”! Most of the time, they are enriched with prebiotics (food for your friendly bacteria) and/or postbiotics (inanimate substances of microbial origin).
Absolution brand Health Cream , for example, is formulated with BioEcolia® extract. It is a prebiotic ingredient intended to harmonize the skin ecosystem by encouraging the development of “good” bacteria in the microbiota. Also enriched with soothing hyssop, this fluid cream is ideal for sensitive skin prone to blemishes.
If you prefer serums, check out the Holidermie Global Day & Night Serum . Its mix of prebiotics and organic beech bud extract combines with the brand's signature antioxidant complex to provide a global response to skin aging. To optimize its anti-aging effectiveness, do not hesitate to combine it with the Firmness food supplement.
The Antipodes brand, for its part, has developed a series of 3 treatments dedicated to strengthening the surface microbiota. Crédo serum is a fermented revitalizing treatment that fights against redness. Also see Culture, a pink gel-cream to apply in the evening to soothe your stressed skin. For a more specific treatment, choose the Flora repair mask: 15 minutes of application, 2 to 3 times a week.
