The most advanced, natural solutions for skin & scalp care.
Welcome to the future of skin health
Our journey of discovery starts in our lab.
9 Years of microbiome research has strongly linked healthy, beautiful skin and hair with the composition of our microflora. Advances in genomic technology have enabled us to sequence hundreds of different bacterial strains from healthy people. This has allowed us to identify gaps in the microbiome and how these differences in bacterial strains impact individuals. The future of healthy, youthful skin lies in your microbiome.
Skin flora tested
Microbes live on us, in us and around us. While some of these are annoying and nasty, others such as probiotics, are essential to our life and we couldn’t live a day without them.
Your skin’s microbiome is an ecosystem comprised of microbes and is incredibly complex, massively varied, dynamic and changes with age and the environments it encounters. It includes trillions of bacteria, yeast, fungi, viruses and other microorganisms residing within the epidermis, dermis, glands and hair follicles.
At Skinara® we’re continuously developing our understanding of them – particularly good bacteria such as probiotics. For instance we call upon very diverse fields of science and their role in skin health and the dermatological challenges that can disrupt our skin’s microbiome.
For example conditions such as dry, prematurely aging or inflammatory skin including atopic dermatitis, acne or psoriasis can be effects of alterations in this microbial balance. Also your skin care regimen can either promote or damage this ecosystem. At Skinara® we create and test our products to ensure they support your skin’s microbiome, for maximum results and zero irritation.
Cruelty free
None of our ingredients or formulations are tested on animals and never will be. 100% Ethical, Vegan and Gluten free.
No allergens
Allergies are a modern epidemic. With fragrances being the number one cause of skin sensitivity and allergic reactions in skin care. Don’t shop with your nose, it makes no scents.
For instance fragrances, either natural or synthetic, can have up to 200 different chemicals in them that cause irritation well before it’s seen on the surface. Meanwhile below the surface they can create cracks invisible to the naked eye. These break collagen down worsening dryness, hindering your skin’s ability to heal. ’Essential oils’ included in skin care often contain artificial fragrances not listed on the packaging, that make aromas last longer. These pro aging skin care products are ones to avoid.
Natural & Organic
At Skinara® we understand sensitive skin. We go beyond skin soothing to build up the skin’s tolerance. We formulate with skin’s natural microbiome in mind. Boosting your skin’s protective barrier function and avoiding all of the pro aging chemicals and irritants.
There are some products out there that impair the skin and have completely opposite effects to their claims. They do not preserve skin’s integrity, balance of lipids, fats or ceramides. They don’t support all important skin barrier functions, healthy cell communication and microbiome activity. Watch out what cleansers and exfoliators you’re using too. Some are superficial and change the physiological balance of your skin. A cascade of events could follow including less UV protection as the antioxidant network in your skin breaks down, leading to drier, irritated, sensitive skin.

In harmony with our planet
Our health is directly linked to the health of our planet
In everything we do we ask 2 fundamental questions: how will people really benefit from this product and how might it affect our fragile planet. It other words we have to search longer and harder to ensure what we offer is not only in harmony with you but also our Earth. It’s a small price to pay to be guilt-free guardians of this beautiful world we live in.
