Linneo, nourishing beauty
A green and sustainable cosmetic.
Currently, the makeup industry works with large manufacturers and third party fabrication. Cosmetics manufacturers commonly use toxic ingredients as heavy metals, parabens, and phthalates causing serious impacts on people's health and the planet in the long term.
Linneo is a bio-nutricosmetic obtained from fungi biopigments, composed of biocomponents which generate a boost of nutrients to your skin. Color pigments were extracted from microorganisms creating a non invasive, non chemical cosmetic.
Our "Mychroma" bio-pigments perform as nourishing bio-agents, providing antioxidant properties, protection against UV rays and moisturizing the skin. Its organic pigments do not use fertilizers nor insecticides, commonly used in organic-based cosmetics. At Linneo we seek to revolutionize the world of beauty enhancing color and nourishing makeup.
