Mibelle Biochemistry is highlighting two new products during In-Cosmetics. SLVR’Coffee is based on upcycled coffee silverskin to moisturize and comfort dry skin. The coffee silverskin is the innermost layer of the coffee cherry surrounding the coffee beans. Between 200 and 400 million kilos of coffee silverskin are generated yearly as a main by-product during the roasting process, according to the company.

Mibelle Biochemistry's waste solution is the upcycled high-value SLVR'Coffee ingredient, which contains recovered valuable molecules from coffee for skin. Following a biomimetic concept for skin hydration, SLVR'Coffee protects the epidermis from internal and external stressors as well as transepidermal water loss resulting in improved skin hydration. Therefore, SLVR'Coffee enhances the overall comfort of delicate skin, according to Mibelle.

Also at In-Cosmetics, Mibelle presents NovoRetin, a plant-based, stable and safe alternative to retinol. It is based on mastic, which is an aromatic resin from the bark of a tree that grows only on the Greek island of Chios. NovoRetin is able to increase the amount of naturally occurring retinoic acid in the skin, leading to retinol-like effects without the need to apply retinoids topically on the skin. As a unique all-in-one product, it increases skin density and elasticity, reduces pore size and wrinkles, refines skin texture, and creates a smooth and matte finish, according to Mibelle.
