The Founder

Formulated by Dr. Anupama Bisaria

Dr. Bisaria has practiced dermatology since 2009. YUBIOME was not created by marketers — it came after years of seeing patients struggle to find products that were effective, gentle and pleasant to use.

In clinic, the choice was rarely simple: a mix of several products from different brands to treat one concern, an imported formula priced beyond daily use, or something never designed for Indian skin and weather. YUBIOME began as an attempt to close that gap.

Nothing is included for the label. Nothing is left out for the margin.

What Dermatologist-Formulated Means

Dermatologist-formulated doesn't mean a name on a label. It means every decision was made the way it's made in a consultation room.

Does this ingredient serve the skin barrier, or work against it?

If the answer isn't clearly yes, it doesn't go in the formula.

Is the concentration clinically proven, or just popular?

Every active is dosed at the level shown to work — not the cheapest level, or the trending one.

Will this still make sense in five years?

Formulas aren't rebuilt to chase a season. If something changes, there needs to be a real clinical reason.

  • Dermatologist-Formulated

    Every formula is designed by a practicing dermatologist — not adapted from a trend, and not handed off to a marketing team.

  • Barrier-First, Always

    Skin and scalp health is treated as the goal, not an afterthought. Results follow from what's healthy, not what's aggressive.

  • Built for Indian Skin & Climate

    Formulated for Indian skin, hair, and weather from the start — not an imported formula adjusted after the fact.

  • No Exaggerated Claims

    Every benefit traces back to a real biological mechanism. If it can't be explained, it doesn't get promised.

Ingredient Philosophy

Every ingredient earns its place. Here's why.

Oil & comfort supportZinc Lactate

Why this ingredient exists

Acne-prone and combination skin often needs oil and comfort support — but reaching for a stronger active risks disrupting a barrier that's already under strain. Zinc Lactate does that job without the trade-off.

How it supports the formulation

It works alongside Allantoin and Panthenol, not instead of them — the cleanser removes the day's buildup, Zinc Lactate keeps oil and comfort in check between washes, and the barrier-support ingredients make sure none of that costs the barrier anything.

Used in: Clarive Face Wash

Fibre strengtheningHydrolyzed Keratin & Hydrolyzed Silk

Why this ingredient exists

Fragile, breakage-prone hair needed the wash itself to stop contributing to the damage — not just a gentler cleanser, but fibre support during the exact moment breakage is most likely: washing and detangling.

How it supports the formulation

They work with Polyquaternium-7 to smooth and detangle rather than fight the mild surfactant base — cleansing and fibre support happen in the same step, instead of being split across two products.

Used in: Strengthening Shampoo, Intense Mask

Botanical supportOnion, Amla & Rosemary Extracts

Why this ingredient exists

These three were chosen because they have a real evidence basis for hair-fall and strength support — not because they're trending ingredients.

How it supports the formulation

They sit at a supportive level within the mask's conditioning base, working alongside the keratin and silk proteins as part of the system — not positioned as a single hero ingredient asked to carry the result alone.

Used in: Intense Mask

Strengthening systemBiome-Strength™ Complex

Why this ingredient exists

Named because Hydrolyzed Keratin, Hydrolyzed Silk, and Panthenol do a specific, measurable job together — strengthening the hair shaft — at the concentrations used here. It's not a separate ingredient; it's what we call this combination when it's working as intended.

How it supports the formulation

The same complex runs through both the Shampoo and the Intense Mask, so fibre-strengthening isn't a one-off claim on a single product — it's consistent through the wash step and the treatment step of the same routine.

Our Philosophy

Eleven principles guide every formula we make.

None of them are secrets. All of them are why YUBIOME looks the way it does.

  1. We work with biology, rather than against it.

    Skin and scalp are not blank surfaces waiting to be corrected — they are living, adaptive systems with their own defenses, signalling processes and microbial ecosystems. YUBIOME formulates to support the skin and scalp's own regulatory processes, not to override them.

  2. Healthy skin and healthy hair produce better cosmetic outcomes than corrected skin and hair.

    A clearer complexion or a stronger strand is not achieved by masking a problem — it is the visible consequence of an underlying system functioning well. Health is the mechanism, appearance is the evidence.

  3. We optimise for long-term skin and hair health, not for temporary cosmetic effect.

    YUBIOME does not formulate for the sensation felt at the sink. It formulates for the condition of the skin and hair three months from now.

  4. Comfort improves treatment compliance.

    A product a patient tolerates is a product a patient will actually use. Comfort is a precondition for efficacy to occur at all, because efficacy requires consistent use.

  5. Barrier preservation is part of efficacy, not separate from it.

    A formula that treats a concern while damaging the barrier has not solved the problem — it has traded one problem for another. Barrier preservation is evaluated as a core measure of whether a formula is working.

  6. Every ingredient should have a clear purpose.

    Every ingredient present must be able to answer a simple question: what is it doing here, and why is it needed.

  7. Every claim should have a biological mechanism.

    If a claim cannot be traced back to a specific, explainable action, it does not get made.

  8. Daily use matters more than aggressive short-term treatment.

    A gentle formula used consistently for months will outperform an aggressive formula used inconsistently.

  9. Consistency creates cumulative improvement.

    Improvement in skin and hair is rarely a single event. It is the accumulation of many small, correctly repeated actions.

  10. We formulate for what repeatedly works in real dermatology practice, rather than following ingredient trends.

    An ingredient's popularity is not evidence of its value. Our formulation decisions begin in the clinic, not on a trend report.

  11. We respect our customers' intelligence and explain why products work.

    A customer who understands why a product works is more likely to trust it, use it correctly, and stay consistent with it. Explanation is part of the product.
