Our Science
The Biotechnology Of Our Natural Skincare
Good microbes are our skin's best friends. We have trillions of microbes on our skin, many of which are beneficial. A well-balanced skin microbiome is vital to skin health. When our skin microbiome is out of balance and lacking certain good microbes, issues like Eczema can flare up.
The good news is that nourishing your skin microbiome with the right ingredients can help maintain a healthy balance. The SkinBiome Co.'s products contain our proprietary active ingredient: Dermafixium, which does exactly that!

Our skin is our largest organ, and it's teeming with trillions of microorganisms, like bacteria, fungi, and viruses. These invisible lives form an ecosystem known as the skin microbiome, which, like your gut microbiome, is a critical component of our health.
Our skin microbiome is an important part of the physical layer that protects you from damages from the outside world, and it works with other parts of your skin to fight infections, heal wounds, and control inflammation.
Through his research, Dr Pennino discovered Dermafixium, which is a beneficial extract from one of the good microbes on the healthy skin of children and adults and is deficient in individuals affected by skin disorders like Eczema. Importantly, this microbial strain of Lactobacillus behind Dermafixium lives specifically on human skin, unlike the other members in the same family that are normally found in the gut.

Dermafixium is a natural source of essential molecules and nutrients for the skin, consisting of short-chain fatty acids and microbial metabolites, that promote healthier skin when re-introduced onto the skin. Dr Pennino and The SkinBiome Co. team spent close to 10 years developing a highly effective formula for people affected by skin disorders. Our scientific data here strongly supports that our formulation can lead to visible skin improvement within one day of application.
Dr Pennino has over 15 years of experience researching the role of the skin microbiome in inflammatory conditions like Eczema. While at St John's Institute of Dermatology at King's College London, one of the world's leading centers for skin disease research and healthcare, he participated in analyzing one of the largest skin microbiome datasets in the world for skin disorders.
The SkinBiome Co. team analyzed millions of human datapoints using artificial intelligence (A.I) and other scientific experimentation. From this, the team first identified several families of microbes which were missing in the skin of affected patients which enables Eczema.
The team continued to build several analytical models- which led to the prediction and assessment of many beneficial effects of these good microbes using thorough data analyses and rigorous laboratory testing in their laboratory in Cambridge, UK.
After years of research and validation, Dr Pennino discovered the proprietary all-natural active ingredient: Dermafixium, which contributes to skin collagen formation and promotes reparatory and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
At The SkinBiome Co., Dr Pennino and his team are keen to continue using A.I to supercharge the discovery of skin specific good microbes and develop new transformative products to tackle multiple skin disorders.
