Vytrus launch Kannabia Sense PLF - The Microbiota Whisperer
![](news_and_press/clip_image002.jpg)
Following on from last year’s triple award winning performance Vytrus are launching the latest addition to their product portfolio, Kannabia Sense PLF. Kannabia Sense PLF is a new natural active ingredient made from Cannabis sativa stem cells that interacts with skin’s microbiota postbiotic generation to modulate the skin neurochemical networks and enhance the feeling of comfort and self-confidence through the Microbiota-Skin-Brain Axis (MSBA). It has been developed using ‘Phyto-Lipidic Fractions’ technology based on a process designed to enrich the cell culture in signalling lipids which activate the positive MSBA.
Kannabia Sense PLF plays a key role in the brain activation through the skin as our ingredient activates the same brain areas as oxytocin. In this webinar watch Vytrus CEO, Oscar Exposito, present this novelty to the cosmetic community.

CLR introduces Cutibiome CLR, “Calibrating the Skin’s Ecosystem”
CutiBiome CLR has been developed to balance the skin’s microbiota for those who have skin conditions caused by Cutibacterium acnes. While C. acnes is a commensal species and certain genetic variants, e.g., phylotype I-A1, are important for the skin, C. acnes can also cause problems. CutiBiome CLR prevents film-forming activity while inhibiting the growth of C. acnes I-A1. These effects reduce sebum, comedones, pustules and pimples, as shown instrumentally and in volunteers.
Other in vivo studies for hair care showed a reduction in dandruff. For four weeks, the ingredient was used three times weekly in a hair tonic. Results indicated similar efficacy to piroctone olamine, the standard used to treat fungal infections and dandruff, and greater efficacy than the standard for reducing scalp oiliness, sensitivity and itch.

Hallstar Beauty announce the launch of their newest active natural, BIOME Oléoactif®
![](news_and_press/202003.jpg)
BIOME Oléoactif® both reinforces the integrity of the epidermal barrier and preserves the microbiota of healthy skin to prevent cutaneous discomfort and disease. Hallstar Beauty's newest active natural, BIOME Oléoactif® (INCI: Simmondsia Chinensis Seed Oil (and) Avena Sativa Kernel Oil (and) Bacillus Ferment)), is the first ingredient obtained by capturing rare lipids from a wild extremophilic microorganism.
BIOME Oléoactif® is the first post-prebiotic fatty acids complex.
-
Fatty acids complex - an innovative combination of fatty acids coming from the bacterial and vegetable worlds.
-
Postbiotic - it contains non-viable fractions of bacteria that have a biological effect on the skin.
-
Prebiotic - it confers a health benefit by supporting the maintenance of the normal skin microbiome associated with a modulation of some species of the microbiota related to healthier skin conditions.
Hallstar Beauty conducted a cosmeto-genomic in vitro test on skin as well as a clinical test on cutaneous microbiota (16S rDNA sequencing) that proved BIOME Oléoactif® preserves the bacterial diversity and microbiota global composition of healthy skin, thus balancing and protecting the critical [skin-microbiome] ecosystem.

DANIEL WHITBY PRESENTATION
INFORMED INSIGHTS INTO FUTURE BEAUTY
Daniel Whitby (Lake Personal Care)
What will the future of beauty look like and how can we predict this?
The beauty industry is driven by innovation, not only in formulation and
packaging but also in terms of new formats, claims and a need for new ways of
engaging with increasingly savvy consumers. As the market grows and we see the
emergence of new, often independent brands who are highly mobile and agile, the
demand for innovation is relentless. Staying ahead of the curve and being able
to identify the breaking trends which will influence the future of product
development enables maximum use of resources in the best possible way. Taking
extensive research from the latest scientific publications and combining this
with analysis of new product launches and global product trends can give us some
idea of what to expect from the next generation of beauty. Add in to this key
developments in other industries such as healthcare, construction and nutrition,
new thinking in marketing and retail and a thorough understanding of consumer
needs and we can begin to build a picture of where we may be as we approach the
third decade of the 21st century. In this talk the multifactorial
approach described above will be used to provide an informed view of both where
our industry is heading and why it is going that way.

OLEA VITAE PLF - Awarded Gold for Innovation Zone Best
Ingredient 2019
Utilising their brand new and exclusive Phyto Lipidic Fraction (PLF) technology
platform which extracts the essence of lipids from the plant cell membrane,
Vytrus Biotech have created OLEA VITAE PLF.
Derived from plant stem cells of Mediterranean Wild Olive tree shoots,
OLEA VITAE PLF is a powerful revitaliser of mature skin and
fights energetic ageing using a new mechanism of action; stimulation of
Mitochondrial Synapses.
This hybrid oil replicates the activity of cellular lipids, protecting and
optimising the energy of skin cells and increasing production of structural
proteins. Tested on menopausal women, OLEA VITAE PLF
delivered an astonishing anti-wrinkle, firming and repairing effect.
OLEA VITAE PLF represents the first generation of
biomimetic plant cell membrane lipids, the PLF whose unique composition works
synergistically stimulating communication between mitochondria resulting in the
formation of the Mitochondrial Synapses, thus igniting the energy and vitality
levels of the epidermal cells. OLEA VITAE PLF
activates energy rejuvenation cycles, helping cells to fight the programmed
obsolescence of mitochondria. The final result is skin revival.
It is recognised that mitochondrial activity occurs at night; OLEA VITAE
PLF delivers an authentic link to circadian rhythms and an
overnight / sleep repair claim
New ! starter formulations containing OLEA VITAE
PLF are available for Micellar Oil, Silicone-Like Matte Gel,
Hydroglycolic Gel, Hydroglycolic Serum and an O/W Emulsion.

the concentrated metabolome of totipotent cells from Noni (Morinda
citrofolia). Rich
in Anti-Quorum Sensing molecules (Anti-Quormones) specially designed for �dermohacking�,
Quora Noni PRCF acts synergistically against Quorum Sensing mediated
microbial dysbiosis and blocks the microbiome communication signals to avoid the
formation of biofilms and the development of virulence, without killing or
threatening the microbiota. Quora Noni PRCF does not contain
antibiotics thereby avoiding the potential resistance that microbes can develop,
it is bacteriostatic and works by maintaining the microbiome balance. Quora Noni
PRCF perfects skin�s appearance by reducing sebum, minimising pores
and improving the appearance of acneic lesions.

Last but not least, a
bit about our stand - our most sustainable, environmentally friendly and energy
efficient exhibition space to date and 95% re-useable. We deliberately avoided a
traditional timber / mdf design and the associated dust and huge wastage
associated with this type of construction which impacts upon the environment.
Our stand was an aluminium display system with printed substrates and a recycled
carpet. Construction was quick and easy saving time, the lightweight materials
can easily be compacted down into cases which saves on labour and transport
costs and minimises pollution. We used LED lighting to reduce our power
consumption � even our plants were real and have all gone to loving homes !

July 2018 - Society of Cosmetic
Scientists �Science in a Bottle�
![](news_and_press/SIAB_header.jpg)
Petra Sturgeon and Daniel Whitby from Lake Personal Care
attended the two day SCS �Science in a Bottle� event.
The event programme comprised of 24 talks, covering four
main themes and attracted an audience of 100 delegates, which included
representatives from retailers, brands and academia.
Our supplier partner CLR Berlin was a key sponsor of the
event and our team joined John Lofthouse, Director Global Sales and Marketing,
at their top table exhibition during the intervals and networking breaks.
John gave a presentation on the new active from CLR, �MultiMoist�,
entitled �A New Multifaceted Approach Toward Skin Moisturisation�.
Synopsis
The role of vitamin D, in the skin is well described in
scientific literature. Particularly interesting is its role in skin processes
relevant to moisture levels. Vitamin D deficiency is common in people suffering
from atopic dermatitis, a skin disease that is associated with reduced skin
barrier function and skin dryness. Additionally, vitamin D is an important
initiator of filaggrin production, which is of particular note in this context,
filaggrin being the most important raw material for the production of NMF.
MultiMoist, the latest product to be developed by CLR
Berlin, has been shown, in-vitro, to have significant activity in stimulating
the efficiency of Vitamin D receptors in skin cells.
In-vivo it was shown through 6 different in-vivo tests
to improve the moisture levels in the skin and improve qualities, such as skin
smoothness, which are indicators of well moisturised skin.
Daniel's presentation followed this, outlining how
digital beauty will help new products meet the needs of the modern consumer.
Synopsis
As the skincare industry shifts away from anti-ageing
and the traditional bricks and mortar sales model, new opportunities are arising
for the application of technology in the beauty marketplace. The presentation
explored the current landscape in terms of the �Quantified Self� trend,
explained how augmented reality can drive increased sales, and reviewed a recent
study exploring consumer expectations of the industry.
Looking to the future, the key trends which will
contribute to brand delivery was shared along with a detailed analysis of
influences from industries as diverse as construction, technology and food.
Future claims trends was analysed and a WTF (What�s The Future) approach taken
to show how all these factors will combine and contribute to Beauty 2.0, with
efficacy at its heart.
Many thanks to all who came to see us at the show and if
you would like any further details on the presentations please

also potentiates the effect of vitamin D. As a consequence the skin
becomes more moisturized.
By making use of 5 different objective instrumental approaches, the
immediate and long term moisturizing properties of MultiMoist CLR� were
convincingly proven.
A further consumer study proved that subjective improvement of skin
moisture content, skin smoothness and the look of skin were all
improved.

NEW! Quora Noni PRCF � hacking the microbiome.
Quora Noni PRCF is a concentrated metabolome (a collection of
metabolites that are produced by cells during metabolism) of totipotent
cells from the Noni plant (Morinda citrifolia): www.vytrus.com/quora-noni.html
It is rich in anti-quorum sensing molecules (Anti-Quormones) specially
designed to act synergistically against Quorum sensing mediated
microbial dysbiosis and its side effects.
The active offers a new mechanism of action against acne and other skin
conditions; blocking the microbiome negative communication signals,
without killing or threatening the microbiota.
The active�s effect is bacteriostatic and not bactericidal which allows
it to maintain the balance of the skin�s microbiome.
NEW! SarcoSlim Re-Shape PRCF
Sarcoslim Re-Shape PRCF is a new concept for liposculpting.
This skin re-modelling system helps reduce fat while taking advantage of
the intercellular energy released through the burning of this fat to
tighten and firm tissue, so specific parts of the body can be sculpted.
Made from the callus culture of the close to extinction South-Iberian
plant Sarcocapnos crassifolia, the active is a metabolome rich
in plant lipid management related factors specially designed to produce
fat burning, generate an increase of cell energy metabolism, and
reactivate the mechanical properties of skin.
