Now Trending: Biotic Skincare
Have you heard about biotic-infused skincare? If you haven’t, you will soon.
While biotic skincare may seem like a new hot-topic in the skincare and wellness industry, Amala has been formulating with unique biotic infusions for 15+ years, and is what we believe to be the best way to achieve healthy, radiant skin. Each product we formulate is aimed to balance the skin's microbiome, the diverse ecosystem of microorganisms living on the skin surface, which plays a crucial role in maintaining its barrier function and overall health.
By promoting a healthy microbiome, biotic infused skincare can help reduce inflammation, prevent acne, and improve hydration and skin texture. The inclusion of beneficial bacteria and nutrients supports the skin's natural defenses, making it more resilient to environmental stressors and aging. If you’re searching for natural skincare solutions that work (and are clinically proven) - our carefully crafted rituals are a perfect place to start.
PROBIOTICS: LIVING MICROORGANISMS
Live beneficial microorganisms like Lactobacillus, when applied to the skin, help balance the skin's microbiome. This balance is key for reducing inflammation and preventing skin issues. Probiotics strengthen the skin's barrier, potentially easing conditions like acne and eczema.

Five Benefits of Fermented Ingredients
A Balanced Microbiome
Probiotic, fermented skincare helps balance the skin’s microbiome by increasing good bacteria, which improves conditions like acne, dermatitis, and eczema, while increasing hydration and reducing inflammation.
Powerful Skincare Ingredients
The fermentation process produces peptides, lactic acid, and hyaluronic acid while also enhancing ceramide production and stimulates the production of natural antimicrobials to regulate bacterial levels.
Increased Concentration of Bioactives
Studies show fermented skincare ingredients provide greater anti- aging benefits by amplifying the efficacy of skin beneficial ingredients
Enhanced Bioavailability
Fermentation breaks down the molecules into smaller parts, making them more easily absorbed by the skin.This increases the potency and antioxidant potential of the ingredients while also helping to maintain the microbiome’s natural balance.
Extended Formula Shelf Life
Fermentation can extend product shelf life by producing antibacterial and antifungal byproducts. Lactic acid and acetic acid promote a low pH environment that inhibits pathogenic bacterial growth, reducing the need for preservatives.
