What You'll Discover

The Invisible Ecosystem Living On Your Skin

Your skin hosts 1.5 trillion microorganisms. When this ecosystem is balanced, your skin glows. When it is disrupted — by skincare products, antibiotics or stress — the result is acne, eczema, rosacea or accelerated ageing.

01
Acne Microbiome Profile
Cutibacterium acnes strain analysis — identifying whether you carry inflammatory RT1/RT2 strains or protective RT3 strains. This determines whether antibiotic treatment is appropriate or whether microbiome restoration is the better approach.
C. acnes RT1 · RT2 · RT3 · RT4
02
Skin Barrier & Protective Species
Staphylococcus epidermidis and Cutibacterium avidum levels — the primary defenders of your skin barrier. Low levels are directly linked to eczema, chronic dryness, rosacea and increased sensitivity to cosmetic ingredients.
S. epidermidis · C. avidum · Corynebacterium
03
Fungal Balance (Malassezia)
Malassezia is a naturally occurring skin fungus — but overgrowth causes seborrhoeic dermatitis, dandruff, Malassezia folliculitis and worsens rosacea. Species and strain profiling determines the right antifungal approach.
Malassezia globosa · M. restricta · M. furfur
04
Eczema & S. aureus Load
S. aureus overgrowth is the primary bacterial driver of eczema flares — detected in 90% of active eczema lesions. Your S. aureus load determines whether topical or systemic intervention is needed.
S. aureus · S. epidermidis ratio · Beta-toxin
05
Skin Ageing Microbiome
Age-related shifts in skin microbial diversity — specifically declining S. epidermidis and increasing Proteobacteria — that accelerate photoageing, collagen degradation and skin thinning.
Proteobacteria · Actinobacteria · Firmicutes ratio
06
Skincare Ingredient Compatibility
Which common cosmetic ingredients — preservatives, surfactants, fragrances and actives — are disrupting your specific microbiome, and which probiotic skincare actives are supported by your profile.
 Parabens · SLS · Niacinamide · Postbiotics
C. acnes Strain Analysis

Not all acne bacteria are equal — RT3 strains are actually protective. Our strain-level analysis tells you whether antibiotic treatment is the right approach or whether it will make things worse long-term.

Eczema Driver Identified

S. aureus colonisation drives 90% of eczema flares. Knowing your exact S. aureus load enables targeted intervention — probiotic sprays, barrier creams and specific actives that directly suppress it.

Malassezia Profiling

Malassezia folliculitis is frequently misdiagnosed as acne and does not respond to antibiotics. Identifying your Malassezia species enables correct, effective treatment from day one.

Ingredient Intelligence

Your report identifies which preservatives and cosmetic chemicals are disrupting your skin bacteria — letting you reformulate your routine with precision.

Inside Your Report

Skincare Built on Your Biology

Generic skincare advice ignores that your skin microbiome is as unique as your fingerprint. Two people with acne may have completely different bacterial drivers — requiring completely different treatments. Your Skin Microbiome report makes your routine scientifically precise.
Acne Root Cause
Know whether your acne is driven by inflammatory C. acnes strains, Malassezia overgrowth, S. aureus colonisation or barrier disruption — each requiring a different treatment approach.
Ingredient Audit
Every ingredient in your current skincare routine evaluated against your microbiome — what is helping, what is disrupting and what needs to change.
Probiotic Skincare Guide
Which topical postbiotic and probiotic ingredients are scientifically matched to your specific microbiome deficiencies.
Skin-Gut Diet Link
Specific dietary changes that shift your gut microbiome in ways that measurably improve your skin — the science-backed gut-skin axis protocol.
Eternell Microbiome
Skin Microbiome Report
Sample — Skin Ecosystem Analysis
C. acnes Inflammatory Strain (RT1) High — Key Acne Driver
S. epidermidis (Protective Species) Low — Barrier Compromised
Malassezia Overgrowth Risk Low — Balanced
Key Microbiome Insight High RT1 C. acnes abundance (78% of C. acnes population) combined with critically low S. epidermidis — classic inflammatory acne with compromised barrier. Antibiotic resistance risk elevated. Recommended: bacteriocin-producing S. epidermidis probiotic mist + niacinamide barrier repair.

Your kit includes sterile swabs for gentle facial collection. You swab the T-zone, cheeks and forehead following the simple illustrated guide. Takes under 5 minutes and is completely painless.
Especially in this scenario. Antibiotic-resistant acne is increasingly common because antibiotics target all C. acnes strains including the protective RT3 strains. Our strain analysis identifies whether antibiotics are appropriate for your profile or whether microbiome restoration is better.
Yes. Your S. aureus load and S. epidermidis ratio are the most clinically validated markers of eczema activity. Your report provides the exact intervention — specific moisturiser ingredients, probiotic sprays and dietary changes — with the strongest evidence base for your pattern.
Yes. Rosacea is strongly linked to Malassezia overgrowth and specific Demodex-associated bacteria. Our test identifies both fungal imbalances and bacterial patterns associated with rosacea — enabling targeted treatment rather than generic anti-redness approaches.
Yes. Your Skincare Compatibility Guide rates common cosmetic ingredients against your microbiome — identifying which preservatives, actives and surfactants are disrupting your skin bacteria, and providing a microbiome-matched skincare routine.
We recommend retesting after 12 weeks of following your Personalised Skin Protocol. Skin microbiome shifts are measurable within this timeframe — retesting confirms which interventions are working and allows the protocol to be refined.
