myrto Naturkosmetik sets new standards in research
We are happy to announce great news: myrto has been awarded a 2024 funding prize by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) in cooperation with the Biological-Medical Research Center (BMFS) for our groundbreaking research work!
This prestigious award, which has been presented annually since 2020, recognizes companies whose innovations provide decisive impetus for the life sciences. For us, this award is a significant milestone and a confirmation of our mission to shape the natural cosmetics of the future.
Our research project: Hypoallergenic natural cosmetics without conventional emulsifiers
The focus of our award-winning project was the development of a new generation of natural cosmetic products that do not contain any traditional emulsifiers. Our goal: maximum skin compatibility, stability and long-term support of a healthy skin microbiome.
We have achieved a real breakthrough with an innovative emulsification technology in which we replace classic emulsifiers with finely ground plant fibers. This technology avoids the skin-stressing side effects of conventional emulsifiers and relies on purely biological quality.
Innovative emulsification technology
Our approach completely avoids chemical emulsifiers, fatty alcohols or emulsifiers based on esterified fatty acids - substances that can be found in almost all natural cosmetics. Instead, we use purely plant-based fibers that offer a variety of benefits:
- Strengthening the skin barrier
- Promoting a healthy skin microbiome
- Improving the skin's own defenses against harmful environmental influences
- Highest tolerability, even for highly sensitive skin
Skin compatibility redefined
Our products have been specially developed for sensitive skin - even for challenges such as neurodermatitis or other skin diseases. The focus is on strengthening the skin barrier, preventing inflammation and supporting the skin's natural self-healing powers.
Thanks to the use of plant fibers and additional natural active ingredients, our products not only offer long-lasting care, but also activate the skin's ability to regenerate. The pleasant textures ensure a pleasant skin feeling, are economical in use and make a real contribution to the health of the skin.
A milestone for natural cosmetics
Receiving the award is both a great honor and an incentive for us. It confirms our scientific excellence and our commitment to sustainable, innovative and compatible natural cosmetics.
But we see this not only as a success, but also as a responsibility: We want to use our knowledge to continue developing products that care for, balance and protect your skin in a natural way. Together with you, we are shaping the future of natural cosmetics!
A big thank you to everyone who accompanies and supports us on this journey. We look forward to continuing to share our innovations with you.
