Gallinée, a trailblazer in microbiome-friendly skincare, is launching its latest innovation in April: the Calm & Microbiome holistic duo. Consisting of a serum and a dietary supplement, this new line is designed to soothe the skin effectively while addressing psychological stress. Marie Drago, a Pharmacist and the founder of Gallinée, which was acquired by Shiseido in 2022, emphasizes the direct impact of our lifestyles on our bodies and microbiomes. Factors such as excessive washing, pollution exposure, sleep deprivation, and UV ray overexposure contribute to skin stress.
The emerging skincare brand, known for its pioneering work in microbiome-friendly cosmetics, has introduced its newest creation: a duo that addresses both skin and mental well-being. Marie Drago, the founder of Gallinée, provides insights into this innovative product.
The Calm & Microbiome serum harnesses the benefits of a marine prebiotic complex, derived from red and green algae, seawater, and bioavailable fermented oat. Abundant in lactobacilli, this potent blend of active components deeply penetrates the skin barrier and helps stabilize it through its composition rich in fatty acids and phospholipids.
“When sensitized, skin ends up reacting by developing inflammation, redness and irritation. In an increasingly anxiety-enhancing environment, 73% of consumers believe that their skin is more sensitive than three years ago. The microbiome is key and soothing it helps the skin to regain serenity,” Marie Drago, the founder of Gallinée said.
