Powered by Phytoclinical formulation
Each Plantkos product is powered by its own Phytoclinical Formulation.
Phytoclinical Formula is a pharmacist-formulated blend that targets all three key layers of the skin. Powered by scientifically proven botanicals and clean clinical ingredients, it helps hydrate, reinforce, and soothe—promoting a healthier, more balanced complexion.
Soothing & Calming (Surface & Just Below): Helps calm visible redness and sensitivity, promoting more comfortable skin.
Barrier Support (Mid-Epidermis): Strengthens the skin’s protective layer to reduce moisture loss and shield from everyday stressors.
Deep Hydration (Deeper Layers): Delivers lasting hydration to improve plumpness, smoothness, and suppleness.
Hydration
Deep dermal layer hydration is essential for maintaining skin health, resilience, and a youthful appearance by supporting collagen production and elasticity. When the deeper layers of the skin are well-hydrated, they help prevent premature aging, fine lines, and wrinkles while enhancing overall skin plumpness. Proper hydration also strengthens the skin barrier, reducing sensitivity, inflammation, and environmental damage that contribute to dullness and uneven texture.
Our products are clinically proven to increase and maintain dermal layer hydration for up to 24 hours.
Skin Barrier Function
The skin barrier is an intricate matrix of keratinocytes that are bound together by fatty acids, sterols, and ceramides, and it is highly dependent on two epidermal proteins: filaggrin and claudins.
These proteins aid in keeping toxins out, sealing moisture in, and balancing skin’s pH levels, all functions of a strong skin barrier. All Plantkos formulas are clinically proven to activate the production of filaggrin and claudin, resulting in a healthy skin barrier.
Skin Microbiome
The skin microbiome is an invisible ecosystem that lives on the outermost layer of the skin.
A balanced skin microbiome is crucial for maintaining skin health, preventing breakouts, and reducing inflammation by supporting the skin's natural defense mechanisms. A thriving microbiome helps regulate pH levels, strengthens the skin barrier, and protects against environmental aggressors that contribute to premature aging and sensitivity. Disruptions in the microbiome can lead to dryness, acne, redness, and conditions like eczema, making probiotic and prebiotic skincare essential for long-term skin wellness.
Each of our certified Microbiome-Friendly formulas are proven to support the microbiome’s natural functions and maintain balance.
Love your layers, nurture your layers
Our Process
Our product testing is conducted on an innovative 3D human skin model. These skin models — developed over 14 years and featured in 30 scientific publications — are made from primary human skin cells (keratinocytes) and collagen-producing cells (fibroblasts). They are developed with vital biological components that restore normal skin function and fully support the microbiome.
Our skin models produce their own extracellular matrix, allowing them to mimic crucial natural processes like the production of collagen. This allows for a new level of accuracy in product testing with no human subjects required.
This scientific breakthrough allows Plantkos® to effectively target, test, and address skin’s most common concerns.
