Wearable Skincare? HeiQ Skin Care Is Billed as ‘Probiotics-Infused’ Textile Tech via Happi

HeiQ— a spin-off from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology Zurich that is listed on the London Stock Exchange Main Market—has introduced a “cosmetic finishing” technology for textiles that is said to harness active probiotics and selected prebiotics to enhance the skin microbiome.

HeiQ Skin Care technology for “next-to-skin apparel” and home textiles is aimed at providing a “balanced microbiome for glowing skin,” even after repeated use and washing of textiles, according to the company. It is said to utilize slow-release prebiotics and probiotics that are seamlessly integrated into a biobased textile matrix, enriching the skin’s microbiome diversity, and offering long-lasting cosmetic benefits.

The combination of prebiotics and probiotics—known as synbiotics—delivers a soothing cosmetic skin treatment while consumers relax, work, or sleep.. Synbiotics promote skin renewal, rebalancing, and improved appearance, reducing the signs of aging and establishing a favorable environment for the skin’s natural repair mechanisms.
