Introducing Biomindol: A Microbiome-Inspired Active from Contipro
May 21, 2026We are pleased to introduce two innovative ingredients Lipoid Kosmetik designed for modern skin and scalp care formulations: PHOSPHOLIPON ® 90 H IP and Cascara Pro. Both ingredients are COSMOS certified and align strongly with current trends in skin resilience, scalp wellness, sustainability, and high-performance natural formulations.
In addition to this, both ingredients took 1st place in the BSB Innovation Awards in their categories. Cascara Pro was awarded for sustainable scalp care powered by upcycled coffee cherry shell and PHOSPHOLIPON® 90 H IP took 1st place for biomimetic skin barrier support and exceptional skin feel.
PHOSPHOLIPON® 90 H IP is a highly pure fraction of phosphatidylcholine sourced from non-GMO soybeans. In vivo studies demonstrated significant reductions in TEWL and skin redness, whilst also effectively strengthening and regenerating the skin barrier.
Cascara Pro is an upcycled, caffeine-enriched cascara extract developed for scalp health and follicle longevity applications. Combining caffeine, trigonelline, polyphenols, flavonoids, and tannins, the ingredient delivers antioxidant protection together with scalp stimulation and vitality support.
The ingredient additionally delivers a rich, silky, non-oily skin feel, making it ideal for sensitive skin, barrier-repair, after-sun, and premium moisturising formulations.
Consumer studies demonstrated improvements in scalp comfort, reduced irritation and dryness, enhanced vitality, and an immediate sensation of scalp activation.
