Introducing Lactopalm PARA – A Next-Gen Active for Pigmentary Disorders & Age Spots
May 14, 2026We are pleased to introduce Biomindol, an innovative active ingredient developed by Contipro for modern sensitive skin and barrier-repair formulations.
Biomindol is a next-generation, microbiome-inspired postbiotic based on a stabilised hexylester of indoleacetic acid (IAA), a naturally occurring metabolite produced by the skin microbiome. Through esterification technology, Biomindol offers enhanced stability and improved biological activity compared to standard indoleacetic acid, making it suitable for advanced skincare applications focused on skin resilience and comfort.
Key benefits demonstrated through in vitro and in vivo studies include:
- Enhanced skin barrier function and hydration
- Soothing and calming effects for stressed or irritated skin
- Support of collagen synthesis and anti-ageing performance
- Reduction of transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and visible redness
- Collagen-boosting and improved skin elasticity
- Reduces wrinkles by 26% in 3 weeks
- Support of antioxidant defence mechanisms
- Microbiome-friendly positioning.
Biomindol is an oil soluble active and preservative free. It is particularly suitable for barrier-repair serums, sensitive skin formulations, daily moisturisers, eye care products, and firming or lifting creams.
