DSM_Microbiome_Friendly_IngredientRoyal DSM launches Tilamar® PDO with NØØVISTA™, a 100 percent bio-sourced ingredient from non-GMO feedstocks and also certified as Microbiome-friendly according to the industry-recognized MyMicrobiome test for dry and oily skin areas.

First European-made Cosmetic PDO


Earlier this year, DSM and METEX NØØVISTA, the industrial subsidiary of METABOLIC EXPLORER, announced a global strategic collaboration to deliver the first European-made cosmetic PDO to the market.

TILAMAR® PDO with NØØVISTA™ is a multifunctional ingredient suitable for all cosmetic applications. The ingredient is produced at METEX NØØVISTA’s new, state-of-the-art production site in Carling Saint Avold, France and its benefits and performance as a sensory enhancer, solvent, humectant and preservative booster are proven in tests.

We believe research into the skin microbiome has the potential to revolutionize how we approach skin care and possibly hair care” said Bruno Trinquart, head of global marketing technical and performance ingredients, DSM Personal Care & Aroma.

Minimal Impact on Skin's Microbiome


An independent control body that checks products for their impact on the skin’s microbiome, MyMicrobiome performed a test on TILAMAR® PDO with NØØVISTA™. The ingredient has a proven preservative boosting effect to respect the balance of the skin microbiome.

Specifically, when tested at 2 percent in-vitro, the results confirmed that TILAMAR® PDO with NØØVISTA™ has a minimal impact on the diversity of the skin microbiome, respects its sensitive balance and has a negligible influence on the growth or number of different key organisms. These results have earned it a positive 1.2 ranking.

Today, we see a growing market need – both among our customers and consumers for microbiome-friendly products and we are delighted our product is not only sustainable and high-performing, but also microbiome-friendly,” added Trinquart.
