At Parallel Health, we're constantly evolving our approach to skin health through the science of the microbiome. Today, we're thrilled to announce the launch of the Skin Barrier Biotic Cream™ (a revitalized version of our previous Skin Barrier Silk Cream) enabled by Parallel's predictive skin microbiome data, alongside comprehensive user feedback.

A New Chapter in Microbiome-Friendly Skincare

Our scientific team has been working tirelessly to elevate our foundational moisturizer to new heights. The Skin Barrier Biotic Cream™ represents our research into sensitive skin protection while incorporating our latest advances in microbiome science.

What makes this reformulation special? We've created a comprehensive biotic approach—combining probiotics, prebiotics, and postbiotics—to nourish your skin's microbiome while delivering powerful barrier repair benefits.

The Biotic Difference

The skin microbiome is your skin's first line of defense, and our new formula works harmoniously with these beneficial microorganisms:

• Probiotics: We've added specific beneficial strains of Lactobacillus to help balance your skin's ecosystem, reducing inflammation and protecting against harmful bacteria that can trigger sensitivity reactions.
• Prebiotics: Special nourishing compounds like coconut extract feed your beneficial bacteria, ensuring they thrive and maintain dominance over problematic microbes.
• Postbiotics: Beneficial compounds produced by bacteria, including Leuconostoc/Radish Root Ferment, provide unique skin-supporting benefits while preserving your product naturally.

Inspired by Our Premium Blue Biotic™ Formula

The overwhelming positive data from the Blue Biotic™ Multi-Effect Peptide Cream inspired us to bring some of its most beneficial elements to our everyday moisturizer.

While our Blue Biotic™ remains our luxury offering with the most advanced, high-quality ingredients for comprehensive skin healing, longevity, and targeted anti-aging effects, we wanted to make these microbiome science benefits accessible in your daily routine.

The Skin Barrier Biotic Cream™ can serve as a robust daily moisturizer, specifically formulated for those with sensitive skin who want to incorporate microbiome support into their everyday regimen while mindfully preventing and supporting skin aging at early stages.

Sensitivity Relief Through Barrier Repair

For those with sensitive skin, a compromised barrier is often the underlying issue. Our reformulation supports your skin health with a powerhouse of barrier-supporting ingredients:

• Ceramide Complex: The inclusion of Ceramide NP, Ceramide AP, and Ceramide EOP helps rebuild your skin's natural barrier, mimicking its natural lipid structure.
• Phytosphingosine: A lipid that occurs naturally in your skin, supporting antimicrobial defense and barrier function.
• Allantoin: A powerful anti-inflammatory ingredient that soothes irritated skin, accelerates skin healing, and promotes cell regeneration—perfect for sensitive, reactive skin types.
• Niacinamide: Reduces redness and inflammation while supporting barrier function and minimizing pore appearance.

Longevity Support for Aging Concerns

Skin aging isn't just about wrinkles—it's about the gradual breakdown of skin function and resilience. Our new formula addresses multiple aspects of skin aging prevention:

• Palmitoyl Tripeptide-38: This advanced peptide helps stimulate collagen production and reorganize skin structure for visible wrinkle reduction.
• Hydrolyzed Protein: Provides amino acids that serve as building blocks for skin repair and rejuvenation.
• Sodium Hyaluronate: Delivers deep hydration while supporting collagen structure and preventing moisture loss.
• Rosehip Oil: Rich in antioxidants and essential fatty acids that combat free radicals and support skin regeneration.

The Science of Soothing

Every ingredient has been carefully selected to provide maximum benefit with minimal risk of irritation. The silky texture delivers immediate comfort while working beneath the surface to strengthen your skin over time.

Our quantitative whole-genome sequencing research has shown that maintaining microbiome diversity and barrier integrity is crucial for skin longevity. The Skin Barrier Biotic Cream™ represents our commitment to this principle—creating products that work with your biology, not against it.
