“Clinically Tested Ingredients, Dermatologically Tested Products”
The Formulation Genome
Each Miko product combines bioengineered actives + naturally-derived molecules
to build a skincare ecosystem that’s both clinically smart and biologically respectful.
Here’s what powers your Miko products — decoded in biotech terms:
Serum:
Marine PolySaccharide Complex + PhytoStem Cell Actives
Marine PolySaccharide Complex
Extracted from red algae and oceanic microflora, these complex sugars form a biofilm on the skin, reinforcing the epidermal barrier and enhancing hydration retention. They also signal the skin to increase its moisture-binding proteins, mimicking the skin’s natural extracellular matrix.PhytoStem Cell Actives
Derived from plant stem cells, these actives are rich in epigenetic factors and metabolites. They stimulate dermal regeneration, delay senescence (cell aging), and reduce oxidative stress—helping your skin stay resilient and youthful.
Moisturizer:
CryoPolysaccharide Hydration Matrix + PhytoBarrier Repair Actives
CryoPolysaccharide Hydration Matrix
These sugar-based hydrators are cold-processed to preserve bioactivity. Once applied, they create a hydration reservoir on the skin, stabilizing moisture and enhancing skin elasticity by improving intercellular cohesion.PhytoBarrier Repair Actives
A blend of botanical lipids and peptides that actively support your stratum corneum’s lipid matrix. They help rebuild tight junction proteins, enhance microbial defense, and repair environmental barrier damage.
Sunscreen:
Nanotechnology-Enabled UV Defense + PhytoBarrier Support Actives
Nanotechnology-Enabled UV Defense
Utilizing ultrafine mineral filters (like nano zinc oxide or titanium dioxide), our sunscreen ensures even dispersion and maximum surface coverage without leaving a white cast. These nanoparticles form a photostable shield, reflecting UV rays and reducing free radical formation on cellular structures.PhytoBarrier Support Actives
A secondary layer of plant-derived antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents that strengthen the skin’s biochemical defense system. They reduce UV-triggered inflammation and mitigate post-sun pigmentation.
Toner:
PhytoBright Tyrosinase Control Complex
PhytoBright Tyrosinase Control Complex
A synergistic botanical blend that targets melanin synthesis at the tyrosinase enzyme level — the key enzyme responsible for dark spot formation. This biotech complex includes compounds like arbutin, licorice root extract and stabilized Vitamin C, working to modulate pigment production without cytotoxicity or barrier damage.
