skin secret,

by Pascale founder of BIOSME

 I developed allergies to certain detergents, I suffered from unexplained attacks of itching, regularly red patches appeared on my face. I didn't know it then, but I was suffering from a microbiota imbalance (dysbiosis) that had triggered skin sensitivity.

The worst ordeals, I lived them with the deodorants that I no longer supported. Natural or not, they irritated my skin, triggered the appearance of red patches, almost burns. A trial ! With a scientific mind by my side, this kind of inconvenience quickly became a challenge. We decided with my dear and tender (and partner in this adventure) to develop an effective deodorant formula that respects my sensitive skin.

After several months of research, a lot of intuition and the help of young pharmacists (thank you Alison, Morgane and Morgane), we patented in 2015 a complex combining saccharomyces and lactobacillus ferments offering remarkable protection against body odors , the pro-active deo complex. In early 2016, we launched Biosme and the first probiotic deodorants were put on the market.

Today, we continue to innovate by imagining effective, simple and short pioneering formulas that best respect the skin microbiome and strengthen the skin's defences. Thanks to the probiotic formulas we are developing, my skin sensitivity is just a memory. The range is enriched month after month with new vegan formulas, certified natural and organic and always 100% French, which allow the skin to regain its balance. Bet won! "

 

BIOSME is committed to sensitive skin

Irritations, itching, atopy, ultra-sensitivity, the balance of our skin is altered on a daily basis by pollution, stress, the aggressive formulas of most of the cosmetic products we use. At BIOSME we have made the protection of the most sensitive skin our priority. Today, all our hygiene and care products are designed to have optimal tolerance and protect the natural ecosystem that develops from birth on our skin, the microbiome.

 

What makes us different

To ensure this optimal protection, we have chosen to work with COSMOS-certified ingredients. This allows us to ensure complete traceability of all the elements used in our formulas, even the most modest ones. We can track down traces of CMR, impurities, which slip into raw or processed materials. We are able to follow an ingredient from its place of cultivation, transformation into our cosmetic vats. This complete traceability very few cosmetic brands, including major brands, can guarantee it. It is not enough to show pretty photos of flowery fields and farmers to ensure this commitment. Concretely, we select, buy, transport, transform all our ingredients ourselves.

Our formulas are developed internally in our Parisian mini-laboratory under the responsibility of Charlotte, our R&D manager, then we have our products made with OUR ingredients at two partner manufacturers based in Brittany and Vendôme. It's very restrictive for a small structure like ours, but it's what allows us to guarantee the safety and quality of our formulas. A commitment that we make for our customers, but also for ourselves, to be really proud and sure of what we do!

We have banned from our formulas all potentially irritating ingredients and active ingredients, such as alcohol, essential oils, allergens and PRESERVATIVES. We obviously do not use any of the controversial ingredients regularly denounced by consumer associations or beauty apps. Our products are ultra-protective and natural while being easy to use. No need to put them in the refrigerator or throw them away after a few days, we have developed unique know-how in the use of PROBIOTICS which allows us to ensure complete safety of our formulas and long conservation.

With Biosme, it has never been so easy to take care of your sensitive skin, without fear and with respect for the environment.

What is the microbiome?

The skin microbiome is both the ecosystem and the millions of microorganisms that populate the surface of our skin. The richer it is, the more it is preserved. Its biodiversity is a sign of good health.

Traditionally called "cutaneous flora", it helps our skin to carry out its main function: to serve as a protective physical barrier. When an imbalance occurs in this bacterial ecosystem, our skin becomes fragile and problems appear.

We now know that all skin conditions are linked to the depletion of the diversity of microorganisms that inhabit it. In short, our skin suffers like the environment from a loss of its biodiversity!
