Think of AOBiome's probiotic skincare as nurturing your good bacteria, so they can thrive naturally and improve the look and feel of your skin. It is the same concept as using probiotics to support a healthy gut. Our topical AO+ Mist is a live probiotic formulated to restore important lost bacteria and help you achieve a balanced skin microbiome.
Unfortunately, many of our naturally occurring good bacteria have been lost due to our modern lifestyles. Most soaps and cosmetic products contain preservatives and surfactants, such as sodium lauryl sulfate, that strip away natural oils and disrupt the balance of our skin’s microbiome, leading to dryness, itching, and irritation. That's where AO+ Mist comes in, to naturally replenish the good bacteria needed to improve the look and feel of your skin.
The revolutionary ingredient in our Mist is live ammonia-oxidizing bacteria, or AOB for short. AOBs can be naturally found anywhere a nitrogen process occurs, every plant, every mammal, except for the human body, which is unfair. And yet, the only humans that still naturally have this bacteria on their skin live in areas like the Amazon, without the impact of modern skin care products.
AOBs work by feeding on ammonia and urea in your sweat, unwanted compounds your body naturally produces. In this process, the good bacteria convert these bad byproducts into nitrite, an anti-infective, and nitric oxide, a vasodilator, which all help to restore the natural skin microbiome we were meant to have.
Our AO+ Mist is just that simple - naturally occurring, live ammonia-oxidizing bacteria ready to go to work. Our additional ingredients, water and natural salts, help maintain the bacteria in a healthy state until they are applied to your skin. No synthetic ingredients are used.

Using AO+ Mist to balance your skin's microbiome is easy! The Mist can underpin all skincare routines. To use, shake and spray it 2-3 times directly onto your skin, paying special attention to any areas of concern on your body. It is recommended to spray twice per day, once in the morning and once at night.
Since it is a live probiotic, it’s essential to keep the Mist in the refrigerator for maximum product life, however it can be kept at room temperature for 30-60 days. For the same reason, we take thorough precautions when shipping every bottle, protecting it from potentially disruptive thermal effects by including cold packs when needed.
