Formulated to treat.
Built as a system.

Visible concerns are rarely one-dimensional. Neither are our formulas.

Define the Concern

Advanced actives selected for visible objectives—from discoloration and dryness to texture and resilience.

Build the Formula

Whole-food ingredients and ferments chosen for both biological function and provenance.

Support the Foundation

Prebiotic and postbiotic technologies designed to support the ecosystem behind barrier function + hydration.

Evidence-Driven

Formula-specific studies, dermatologist testing and clinician review—with results reported with precision.

A living foundation.

The body’s largest organ is also a living interface—constantly responding to climate, friction, UV exposure and the products applied to it. Its outermost layer is home to a diverse community of microorganisms collectively known as the skin microbiome.¹

This ecosystem works alongside the barrier and the body’s natural defenses, helping support hydration and resilience against everyday stressors.² Its composition is dynamic, shaped by factors including environment, cleansing and pH. We formulate to support the conditions in which it can function well.³

THE BODY, REGION BY REGION

No two ecosystems are alike.

The skin microbiome is shaped by biology and by the world around it. Age, climate, humidity, cleansing, friction, UV exposure and product use can all influence the barrier, pH and microbial community over time.

That variability is why we formulate for the system—not one pathway alone. iota treatments pair targeted actives with barrier-supportive and microbiome-supporting technologies to address visible concerns without overlooking the foundation beneath them.
