Tiny Bubbles Drive Massive Benefits in Beauty and Beyond | Cosmetics & Toiletries

Oct 29, 2024

Water is the basis for life on Earth. It is second only to oxygen as the most essential substance for survival, yet we take it for granted that it will always function the same.

What if it could be improved?

Hydrosome Labs did just that.

Using the science of ultrafine bubbles – pioneered in Japan – Hydrosome Labs developed a process to create some of the smallest bubbles ever detected. So small in fact, that one trillion can fit inside of one champagne bubble. Why is this important? The process allows the delivery of active ingredients to cells without the aid of chemicals. This opens new possibilities for utilizing water in ways previously unimagined across multiple verticals including beauty, beverages and fermentation.

Hydrosome Labs’ unique ultrafine bubbles are excellent transporters to cells. In essence, with this technology, the company is improving the power of water, turning it from a filler to a functional ingredient.

These bubbles, invisible to the naked eye and among the smallest ever detected, have unique properties. Hydrosome’s ultra-fine bubbles, “Hydrosomes,” have four characteristics no other water technology has.

Meaningful Beauty by Cindy Crawford has introduced Hydrosome technology in its best selling product – Youth Activating Melon Serum – Advanced Formula. “We’re excited to introduce Hydrosome H2O® as the latest technology innovation in our hero product,” said Laura Lum, Co-President of Meaningful Beauty. “We’re the first in the beauty industry to supercharge our revolutionary serum with this breakthrough technology designed to deliver best-in-class ingredients deeper into the skin for better absorption,” said Lum.

Hydrosome H2O combines with Meaningful Beauty’s proprietary Melon Leaf Stem Cell Technology to visibly plump, firm, and deeply hydrate skin and increase elasticity as it helps protect from environmental aggressors. Other skin benefits include radiance and an overall more youthful look.

In a related development, new research using RNA sequencing of cells reveals how Hydrosomes can also work as “supercarriers” in precision fermentation, a process involving the customization of yeast and/or bacteria to produce specific molecules for use in a wide variety of applications including beauty, food, ingredients, biofuels, industrial enzymes, and pharmaceuticals.

Research reveals that substituting Hydrosome H2O for regular water in a fermentation results in:

The bottom-line benefits to the industry include faster fermentations, higher yields, lower energy and nutrient inputs, lower labor costs, and higher efficiencies with no added chemicals.

Hydrosome Labs is a Chicago-based B-to-B biotechnology company on a mission to change lives by changing water. Its technology, Hydrosome H2O, is a natural and chemical-free process that improves the power of water through the emerging science of ultrafine bubbles. The innovative process delivers active ingredients to cells more efficiently and completely with multiple applications across precision fermentation, personal care and cosmetics, beverages, and controlled environment agriculture. The company and advisors include business and R&D execs from Fortune 500 companies like P&G, Constellation Brands, Goldman Sachs, Nestle Health Sciences, and the Intercontinental Exchange, owner of the New York Stock Exchange.
