Gallinée is the pioneer of microbiome skincare that takes care of the skin’s protective ecosystem – the microbiome – using innovative patented prebiotics, probiotics and lactic acid complex based on the latest research in microbiology.
Launched in 2016, this sustainable and 100% cruelty-free, French skincare brand was built on the ethos of preserving our biodiversity and keeping our complex ecosystem healthy, resilient and happy.
“We see skin as a living, breathing ecosystem full of wonders and it makes so much sense to work with our skin rather than against it. This is the future of beauty. With our unique understanding of the skin’s microbiome, we have created products that help our skin to help itself, for immediate results.” – Dr. Marie Drago, the founder of Gallinée.
Using products that contain probiotics, prebiotics and postbiotics (Lactic Acid), Gallinée ensures that the beneficial bacteria remain intact and the skin stays protected from free radicals and oxidative stress. In addition, pH levels become consistent and the microbiome receives the support system it needs to function at its optimum. By nourishing your skin with the biotics it needs, it creates the perfect ecosystem for the beneficial properties of skincare to work its magic.
Gallinée developed a multitude of face, body and hair products that has been the talk of the town – and two hero products that have captivated the hearts of users and skincare specialists alike are the Face Vinegar Toner and the Face Mask & Scrub.
Face Vinegar Toner
The Face Vinegar Toner (RM120/200ml) creates the perfect pathway between cleansing and caring for the complexion. When sebum and dead skin cells block pores, they inhibit bacteria which can prompt spots, acne, dry skin and dullness. It also means that other ingredients applied topically have a difficult time entering the stratum corneum – the outermost layer of our skin – impacting everything from how radiant skin appears to how protected it is from free radicals. The Face Vinegar Toner contains the following ingredients that leaves the microbiome feeling refreshed and rebalanced.
- Hibiscus Vinegar – Known for its astringent, exfoliating and soothing properties.
- Algae Prebiotics – A brand new ingredient using extract from green and brown algae, sea water and marine polysaccharides. Together they act against signs of stress on the skin.
Face Mask & Scrub
The Face Mask & Scrub (RM120/100ml) provides skin with an instant radiance boost by delicately exfoliating the skin and stimulating microcirculation. An innovative biotic complex contains lactic acid to help smooth the skin, and prebiotics to nourish the skin’s protective ecosystem – the microbiome. This biotic complex is combined with a high-performance formula containing mattifying and purifying kaolin white clay, revitalizing sea minerals and antioxidant vitamin E that come with the following skin benefits:
- Vitamin E – Known for its astringent, exfoliating and soothing properties.
- Kaolin – A brand new ingredient using extract from green and brown algae, sea water and marine polysaccharides. Together they act against signs of stress on the skin.
Gallinée’s full range of face, body and hair products are available for purchase in-store at Sephora nationwide and online at Sephora.My.
