Bacterial porphyrins in healthy skin: Microbiota components impact melanogenesis and age‐related processes leading to Porphyr'ageing

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 186-199, February 2026.
Porphyrins, previously linked only to acne inflammation, are now implicated in skin ageing. Their presence correlates with increased melanin, inflammation, and oxidative stress, contributing to premature ageing signs. This study introduces the concept of “Porphyr'ageing,” highlighting the detrimental effects of bacterial metabolites on skin health and ...

Bioretinoids from microalgae: Boosting retinol performance and tolerability

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 146-160, February 2026.
A novel microalgae‐derived bioretinoid (MBR) enhances skin regeneration, improves pigmentation, and reduces signs of ageing more effectively than bakuchiol and comparably to retinol—without the irritation. MBR also synergizes with retinol, boosting hydration and safety. A powerful, gentle alternative for advanced skincare.
