Codex Beauty Labs has launched a new product line—Shaant—and the products are formulated to support the skin’s microbiome.
 
“Shaant is the first ‘MyMicrobiome-certified’ collection for acne-prone skin,” the brand says.

The products address oily and acne-prone skin by helping to reduce sebum production, exfoliate, encourage skin turnover, and soothe irritation.

The brand’s name, Shaant, means “peace” and “calm” in Hindi, and is often paired with “connectedness” in Ayurvedic philosophy. 
Dr. Barb Paldus, founder and CEO of Codex Beauty Labs, says,  “Shaant also leverages our patented PreservX™ preservation system that supports microbiome health – so we are proud that Shaant is the first MyMicrobiome-certified collection for acne-prone skin.”
The Shaant products were formulated in partnership with Dr. Raja Sivamani, an integrative dermatologist and certified Ayurvedic practitioner. The formulas leverage biotech-manufactured plant stem cells from Indian plants long valued by Ayurvedic healers for their calming, soothing and balancing properties.

The Shaant collection includes Balancing Foaming Cleanser, Refining Toner, Balancing Clay Mask, and Balancing Oil Control Cream.
The first four Shaant products are certified MyMicrobiome, Vegan, Leaping Bunny, and EWG Verified. The cleanser and toner are also certified EcoCert COSMOS natural.    

The packaging includes plant-based polyethylene tubes and 50% PCR PET bottles.
