Our products are designed specifically for different indications:
Everyone’s microbiome is unique. This means everyone’s microbiome will respond differently when biomiq’s bacterial strains are introduced. Some individuals may see results within a few days, for others it may take a little longer.
Our products are live and active formulations of beneficial bacterial strains. Therefore, once reanimated, the taste of the formulation may differ slightly from day to day over the 7-day consumption period. This is normal.
We ran numerous tests and found that cell counts (CFUs) did not drop when left for several hours at room temperature (25^C). However, we recommend storing our bacteria in a refrigerator for optimal stability and longevity.
As we have not carried out clinical testing in specific disease states, we cannot recommend the use of our product for treatment of serious medical conditions. Please consult your GP for specific medical advice.
There are no formally acknowledged detrimental interactions between prescription medicines and ingestion of our bacterial strains. The bacteria in our products are human-associated species and are generally regarded as safe for use. However, as these interactions have not been formally tested, we always recommend consulting your GP for specific medical advice.
This will depend on the amount of water used. If you have added too much water you will simply have diluted the product too much; therefore if you stay under 20ml per day you should not feel any side effects. To avoid this happening, we recommend using our biomiq branded glass storage container which will prevent over dilution of the product. You will receive a free biomiq Starter kit when you make your first biomiq purchase.
This product has not been clinically tested on pregnant women or children. Therefore, this product is not indicated for use in children or pregnant women. As always, please read the label warnings before use and consult your medical practitioner for specific medical advice.
Biomiq skincare empowers your skin to be clear, healthy, radiant, and naturally beautiful. Using carefully selected skin-microbiome enhancing ingredients, biomiq harnesses the brilliance of nature, working with your skin, not against it. Read more here.
The skin microbiome is a collection of microorganisms that live on the skin. These microorganisms play a vital role in maintaining your skin health and protecting it. Read more about the skin microbiome here.
The great thing about our biomiq products is you can choose to use as a stand alone product or incorporate into your daily skincare routine.
If you are going to use a cleanser, apply this before using the biomiq products, but why not remove this step and try the biomiq wipes instead. After you apply your biomiq skincare product, allow a few minutes to air dry before applying other products. You may find that over time as your skin health improves you need fewer products than before.
You should always consult your dermatologist if you are prescribed acne medication before using biomiq Skincare. The order of application dictates how various products are absorbed, and therefore, their efficacy. Any topical medication that your dermatologist has prescribed should be applied first after you cleanse. Applying a serum or moisturiser before a topical medication may dilute the medication.
Some people may experience mild tingling shortly after use. This is just the product working! However, if extended or severe irritation develops, please discontinue use. We always recommend patch testing on a small area 24 hours prior to use.
Some people’s skin is more sensitive than others. It is always recommended to patch test prior to use when using a new product, especially those with extremely sensitive skin. However, some users may experience very mild temporary redness upon the first few uses. This should pass quickly. If any redness or tingling persists after the first few applications, discontinue use.
This is known in dermatology as “purging”. Often when introducing a new skincare product into your routine, you may experience some mild breakouts or dry, flaky skin within the first few days of product use. While this may seem like you should stop using the product, it is usually a sign that the product is starting to work. The term ‘skin purging’ refers to a reaction to an active ingredient that is increasing skin cell turnover rate. As skin cell turnover speeds up, the skin starts to shed dead skin cells faster than normal. As the surface layer of the skin is shed more quickly, our skin is expediting its recovery pushing everything to the surface. Therefore, before new and healthy cells can cycle to the surface, excess sebum, flakes and ‘build-up’ (clogged pores) aka pimples rise to the surface first.
Purging will occur in a more defined area where you frequently breakout. Pimples that arise from purging will appear and disappear faster than a normal pimple. If you’re experiencing breakouts (or dryness) in an area where you don’t normally break out, it is most likely a response to a new product you’re using. In these cases, and if irritation persists, please discontinue use, as there is a difference between purging and having a bad reaction to a topical product.
Everyone’s skin is unique, so the timeframe of this cycle will differ from person to person. Typically, this cycle can last from a few days to 28 days (a full skin cell cycle).
Biomiq believes that by restoring the foundational health of your skin your skin will look naturally beautiful and radiant without the need for additional/artificial enhancements. In other words, by improving your natural skin health from within, you may eventually find that you don’t need all those expensive creams anymore!
Caring for your skin health is important and that means protecting your skin and its microbiome from the damage of sunburn. Our products do not contain any SPF; therefore, you will need to apply sunscreen as per normal before spending time in the sun. Apply sunscreen after you have used your biomiq skincare product. Allow 5 minutes minimum in between biomiq skincare application and sunscreen application.
