Problem
Traditional sunscreens often contain chemicals that can be harmful to human health and the environment, and may require frequent reapplication. Current UV filters also lack disruptive innovation, potentially compromising efficacy, tolerability, and ecological impact.
Solution
Skinosive is developing a bio-adhesion technology platform for dermo-cosmetics, with its first application focused on a new generation of UV filters. These bio-adhesive UV filters aim to provide broad-spectrum and long-lasting sun protection while minimizing skin absorption and maximizing eco-friendliness. The bioadhesion technology allows UV filters to maintain efficacy and remain on the skin's surface for an extended period, reducing the need for frequent reapplication. Skinosive's filters are designed to be well-tolerated and offer a safer alternative to existing UV protection products.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes cosmetic companies and consumers seeking safer, more effective, and environmentally friendly sun protection solutions.
