Faced with this clear market trend and scientific demand, upstream raw material innovation has become key to driving industry progress. AOWEN has conducted in-depth research on the skin's circadian rhythm mechanism and developed a series of targeted raw material solutions, aiming to provide brands with a precise "toolbox" for regulating the skin's "biological clock":

1. Internal Synchronization and Revitalization: A ZENAKINE™ technical engineer explained to reporters that this ingredient from Croda's active ingredient series, distributed by ZENAKINE™, focuses on synchronizing the skin's internal rhythms and enhancing its self-repairing ability. This Croda Beauty product works by targeting the RORα/FOXN1 pathway, promoting epidermal differentiation and the synthesis of key barrier proteins, while also helping to increase the skin's endogenous melatonin levels. Research shows that it not only strengthens the skin barrier but also promotes restorative sleep, achieving a holistic approach to rhythm regulation.

2. External Defense and Calibration: SynchroLife™ offers a specialized defense solution against one of the biggest external sources of interference—blue light. Distributed by Aoyuan, SynchroLife™, a product of Sederma, France, helps rebalance the expression of opsin 5 (OPN5) and the core circadian rhythm protein PER2, which are disrupted under blue light stress. This stabilizes the skin's local biological clock, thereby enhancing the skin's self-repair ability, combating oxidative and inflammatory damage, and specifically improving tired-looking skin caused by blue light exposure.

3. Combating Fatigue and Damage: Prodizia™, also distributed by Aoyuan, is a functional active ingredient from Sederma in France. Prodizia™ focuses on addressing visible signs of skin fatigue caused by circadian rhythm disruption. By balancing melatonin, inhibiting advanced glycation end products (AGEs), and protecting the microvascular network, this ingredient effectively improves problems such as dark circles, eye bags, and dull skin tone, restoring radiance to the skin.

Updated 5th Feb 2026, 15:56 GMT

Students at the University of Sunderland were surprised this week when acne-fighting products were delivered from the sky in a Valentine’s-themed drone stunt, highlighting issues around confidence, dating, and skin health among young people.

The drone dropped skin supplements in a heart-shaped package close to the iconic Keel Crossing to Blossom Gill, 18, Rosie Foster, 19, Erin McKale, 19, and Morgan Taylor, 18, who are all Film Production students at the university.

According to the survey commissioned by Newcastle-based AxisBiotix, one third of Gen Z men and women in the North East (33%) admit to sleeping in makeup after dates or when staying over with a partner.

Gen Z LOVE Rosie (19), Blossom (18), Morgan (18), and Erin (19) receive AxisBiotix acne-fighting products from above as part of a high-flying Valentine’s Day stunt at Sunderland’s Keel Crossing

The main reasons for this are; they want to feel more confident (33%), they are ashamed about their acne or spots (23%) or they want their skin to appear more “glowy” (23%).

Half of the respondents in the North East (50%) also say they use filters or editing tools on dating apps, with confidence cited as the main reason (40%), followed by feeling self conscious about acne or spots (31%).

Dr Emma Wedgeworth, a consultant dermatologist at AxisBiotix, said: “Cleansing in the evening is an essential skincare step to remove pollution, excess oil and dead skin cells which can otherwise damage skin and block pores.”

Blossom Gill, 18, said the research reflected conversations she has with friends: “There’s definitely more pressure around Valentine’s and dating in general. A lot of people worry about their skin and how they look, especially when you’re meeting someone new or staying over.”

Despite this, the survey findings also point to a growing shift towards authenticity, with over a quarter of Gen Z women in the North East (27%) saying they prefer to wear minimal make-up on dates so their partner can ‘see the real me’.

Recent webinar

Dr Catherine O’Neill (Professor of Translational Dermatology, University of Manchester, UK)

“The use of models for assessing host-microbiome interaction in the skin”

The skin is home to a diverse and complex microbiome consisting primarily of bacteria, fungi, viruses and mites, which differ in abundance depending on the anatomical site. Historically, skins microbiome was considered a ‘passenger’, but it is now clear that the micro-organisms inhabiting the skin are critical to overall skin health. The microbiome of skin is implicit in several functions of the skin including epidermal barrier homeostasis, prevention of colonisation by pathogens as well as skins response to ultraviolet radiation. Detailed understanding of these interactions requires robust models that recapitulate the in vivo situation.

In this talk I will describe what is known regarding the structure and function of the skin microbiome and discuss some of my work in the context of how well simple models mimic the in vivo situation.

For those that don't like clicking links

Exposure to the blue light emitted by screens which disrupts the skin’s biological rhythm, is one of the most frequently discussed challenges in today’s trend reports.

We spend more time online, we don’t get enough sleep, and screen light throws off both our skin’s regeneration cycle and our overall wellbeing.

Modern skincare simply hasn’t kept pace with the speed of our lives. That’s why Scandia Cosmetics responds to these global challenges with Morpheus - a line whose formula is rooted in skin chronobiology.

In practice, this means a science that studies the skin’s natural cycles of activity and regeneration, assuming that during the day the skin defends itself, and at night it repairs.

By harnessing Zenakine™ biotechnology, Morpheus cosmetics support both of these processes, working in harmony with the skin’s biological clock.

Because smart skincare isn’t just the kind that hydrates and fights the signs of fatigue. It’s the kind that understands the biology, rhythm, and emotions of the modern person.

and

Why is the impact of blue light visible on the skin, and what potential does it create for your beauty brand?

The everyday reality of today’s consumers involves constant exposure to screens and LED lighting which means they are subjected to the negative effects of blue light not only on the skin but also on overall wellbeing and the body’s ability to regenerate and rest during sleep.

Disrupted skin rhythm, slowed regeneration, micro-contractions and accelerated ageing are real problems of the modern world. Problems that brands need to respond to.

Research that underpins the creation of the Morpheus line by Scandia Cosmetics shows that ➡️ 37% of people experience chronic stress, which visibly affects the appearance of the skin and its resilience.

Traditional skincare is no longer sufficient to meet these challenges. This is why a new category is gaining importance: neurocosmetics - products that respond to stress, communicate with skin cells, and restore the skin’s natural balance.

This is exactly the direction Scandia Cosmetics sets with its new Morpheus line.

Because beauty today is more than just a skincare effect.

It is balance, regeneration, and resilience - Longevity Beauty.

Scandia Cosmetics 💎

We create innovations that don’t just respond to trends. They stay ahead of them.

A number of recent LinkedIn posts (3 - 7 days)

including extracts from two below (there are others inc one with mentions exposure to blue light)

Did you know that the Zenakine™ technology used in the new Morpheus line is a biotechnological secret behind smart overnight skincare?

It was created with inspiration from the brain–skin axis and discoveries on how stress affects cellular biology.

Zenakine™ is a breakthrough and an absolute game changer. It is a next-generation postbiotic derived from a culture of Lactobacillus rhamnosus GG, a strain well known from studies on communication between the nervous system and the skin.

Why is it groundbreaking? Because Zenakine™ doesn’t just care for the skin. It’s an innovative activator that communicates with skin cells, triggering their natural regeneration rhythm.

Applying our Morpheus products works like a biological interface. It helps the skin respond better to blue-light exposure, stress, and lack of sleep.

We have solid evidence showing that Zenakine™ increases:

🔬 melatonin production—the hormone of deep skin regeneration: +818%

🔬 Sirtuin 1 gene activity—the “longevity” protein of cells: +91%

🔬 oxytocin: +61% and dopamine: +33%—neurotransmitters linked to balance and wellbeing.

In other words, thanks to Zenakine™ and the Morpheus cosmetics, the skin regains its natural rhythm and resilience and the consumer gains inner calm.

and

Our new Morpheus line is a smart, system-based night skincare ritual that neutralizes the effects of skin exposure to blue light, combining biotechnology with a luxurious wellness experience.

The Morpheus line consists of four products that together create one complete ritual:

🌙 Moisturizing Night Face Cream - intense, long-lasting hydration, a lightweight formula, and a relaxing scent.

🌙 Moisturizing Serum - deep nourishment and a well-rested, refreshed look.

🌙 Moisturizing Body Lotion - regeneration and improved elasticity.

🌙 Two-Phase Body Oil - a calming, unwinding ritual with an innovative formula that emulsifies with water.

The active ingredients in the line include Zenakine™, Betaine, Aloe vera leaf juice, D-panthenol, Hyaluronic acid 1%, Rose water 2%, Lingonberry extract 1.5%, Hexapeptide 0.5%

We believe the future of the beauty industry isn’t only about masking the effects of living in a screen-filled world. It’s about neutralizing their impact with science, nature, and empathy for human biology.
