How it works

How one serum does the work of a routine.

Applying the Phree Skin serum
01

Strengthens

Niacinamide and lipids rebuild the barrier for deep, lasting hydration.

The Phree Skin range
02

Balances

Prebiotic inulin feeds, and probiotic lactobacillus rebuilds a healthy microbiome.

The Phree Skin serum packaging
03

Protects

Lavender and immortelle calm reactivity, so skin builds lasting resilience.

What comes next

Your first 30 days.

  1. Week 1

    Comfort returns

    Tightness and that dry, stretched feeling ease off. Skin takes in its first layer of hydration.

  2. Week 2

    Calmer, less reactive

    Redness and sensitivity begin to settle as the microbiome steadies.

  3. Week 4

    Resilience you can feel

    Soft, even, steady skin that copes with cold, water and everyday stress. One step, in place of a shelf.

*Self-assessed, over four weeks of use. Results vary.

Real reviews

Real words, from real skin.

“Every non-corticosteroid cream had failed my skin. This one worked — it cleared the lichenification in about a week.”

“It feels great on the skin, with a soft, fine scent. Over 8 hours of hydration.”
Verified · Stanimira G.
“It softens quickly. I love the two components — inulin and lactobacillus, which I have used for years for the gut microbiome. The scent is unexpectedly pleasant.”
Verified · Albena P.
“Wonderful! It smells divine, of herbs. It softens, hydrates, and sits like a second skin. Good quality at a good price.”

Everything about the serum.

Description

A hydrating 2-in-1 serum that rebuilds the barrier and balances the microbiome in one considered step. 30 ml, airless pump. Niacinamide, inulin, lactobacillus, lavender and immortelle. For dry, reactive and atopy-prone skin.

Who it is for

For dry, sensitive, reactive and atopy-prone skin that reacts to cold, water and stress, and for anyone who wants one honest step in place of a shelf of half-working products. Suits every age and skin type.

How to use it

Real skin

The same skin, one week apart.

One considered step, photographed in the same light.

Before
After

The science

The science
behind Phree.

Skin is a living ecosystem. We formulate with its biology, the barrier and the microbiome. Here is what that means, and the evidence behind it.

Peer-reviewed actives
Formulated in Sofia Tech Park
100% natural origin

Microbiome 101

An invisible ecosystem living on your skin.

Trillions of microorganisms cover every centimetre of skin. Kept in balance, they are your first line of defence. Feeding them is the step that changes how skin behaves.

1000+

species

Bacteria, fungi and more, all sharing the surface of your skin.

pH 4.5–5.5

acid mantle

Good microbes keep skin slightly acidic, which is its natural defence.

24/7

living defence

A balanced microbiome trains the immune response and settles reactivity.

How balance is lost, and how it returns

1

In balance

Diverse, well-fed microbes. Calm, resilient, comfortable skin.

2

Disrupted

Harsh cleansers, stress, over-treatment. Diversity drops and the reactive microbes take over.

3

Restored

Pre- and probiotics feed the community again. Balance, and comfort, return.

Skin surface · close up

The barrier

A wall that holds while the mortar holds.

The skin barrier is brick and mortar. Cells sit in a lipid mortar of ceramides, cholesterol and fatty acids. Thin that mortar and water leaves, irritants enter, and reactivity starts.

  • SealsRebuilds the lipid mortar so water stays in and irritants stay out.
  • HydratesDraws water into the outer layers and holds it for 8+ hours.
  • CalmsLowers water loss and reactivity, breaking the flare-up cycle.
See the actives that rebuild it

The actives

Three actives, each with one role.

Three evidence-backed actives, with room for each to work. Together they rebuild the barrier and balance the microbiome.

Barrier activator

Niacinamide

Vitamin B3

Prompts skin to build its own ceramides, the lipid mortar, strengthening the barrier and visibly calming redness.

  • Rebuilds ceramides
  • Lowers water loss
  • Calms redness
Prebiotic

Inulin

Prebiotic fibre

A prebiotic that feeds skin's beneficial bacteria selectively, so the good microbes outnumber the reactive ones.

  • Feeds the good microbes
  • Restores diversity
  • Supports the acid mantle
Probiotic

Lactobacillus

Probiotic lysate

A probiotic ferment that strengthens the good community directly, signalling skin to calm inflammation and rebuild its defence.

  • Strengthens the microbiome
  • Signals calm
  • Builds resilience

Niacinamide seals the wall, inulin feeds the ecosystem, lactobacillus strengthens it. Barrier and microbiome, restored in one step.

Where it starts

Skin trouble starts in a disrupted microbiome.

Dryness, redness and reactivity share one root. They begin when the skin's living community falls out of balance. Restore it, and skin relearns how to look after itself.

How the microbiome works

The lab

Developed in Sofia Tech Park.

Phree Skin is a biotech programme. Every active is tested and tuned in a leading Bulgarian research lab, and ships once the science is settled.

Formulated with the biology

Actives chosen for the way skin's own systems work, alongside the barrier and the microbiome.

Measured in the lab

Concentrations and stability are measured in the lab. A formula ships once the data supports it.

One formula at a time

One serum today, tuned for dry, reactive skin. Each next formula ships when the evidence is there.

The evidence

Read the research behind every active.

The peer-reviewed research behind each active is open for you to read. Barrier repair, prebiotic action, probiotic action.
