POSTBIOLIFT™ is a bioactive ingredient derived from the biofermentation process of Lactobacillus crispatus. It contains dormant cells of the living bacterium, which contributes to more elastic skin, a smoother appearance of wrinkles around the eyes, and an even complexion. As skin microbiota diversity changes with age, certain beneficial lactic acid bacteria decrease in mature skin. BASF researchers found that Lactobacillus crispatus is one such bacterium, decreasing in specific skin areas and disappearing from the wrinkle hollows of older individuals. POSTBIOLIFT™ is the first cosmetic ingredient to use this "youth bacterium" found naturally on the skin, offering unique benefits that other biotics on the market lack. When used in conjunction with Postbiolift, which contains the fermentation supernatant of Lactobacillus crispatus, POSTBIOLIFT™ offers a comprehensive solution for maintaining youthful-looking skin.

Mat-XS™ Clinical was created by the experts at BASF in response to the widespread consumer concern over oily skin. This product provides a clearer, smoother complexion. The daily use of Mat-XS™ Clinical has been demonstrated to reduce the oily appearance of the skin, the appearance of the size of pores, and improve the evenness of the complexion. This product is especially suitable for Asian and European skin types.

PROBIOLIFT™ is a probiotherapy cosmetic ingredient made of millions of live but dormant Lactobacillus crispatus bacteria, which are naturally found on the skin. As skin microbiota diversity changes with age, certain beneficial lactic acid bacteria decrease in mature skin. BASF researchers found that Lactobacillus crispatus is one such bacterium, decreasing in specific skin areas and disappearing from the wrinkle hollows of older individuals. When activated by water on the skin, PROBIOLIFT™ increases dermal density, improves the appearance of forehead wrinkles, and protects skin from oxidative stress. Unlike other biotics on the cosmetic market, PROBIOLIFT™ uses a bacterium that is naturally present on the skin. PROBIOLIFT™ is perfectly complemented by Postbiolift, which is derived from the same biofermentation process.

Hyaluronic Filling Spheres® are based on the use of a hygroscopic material to make a sphere. These spheres are dehydrated at first and fill up with water within the skin. This hydration process causes a change in volume proportional to the spheres’ moisture-retaining capacity. Hyaluronic Filling Spheres™ help to smooth the look of deep wrinkles through biotechnology in eye application for mature skin, anti-wrinkle skin care, deep wrinkle skin care ("elevens" wrinkles, forehead wrinkles, nasogenian folds), and intense moisturizing skin care.

Oligolin® BC10028 is a skin rejuvenation ingredient that supports the skin’s natural processes of densification, helping the skin have a firmer appearance. Thanks to the progress of medicine and technology, the aging of populations is a global phenomenon. Longer life expectancies mean more time to help prolong the skin’s youth. Indeed, with age, the skin becomes thinner, the dermal epidermal junction (DEJ) flattens, and dermis density decreases. Skin loses its capacity to restructure tissue; its firmness drops, and it becomes drier.
