The wellness industry is predicted to rise to an estimated $7.2 trillion in 2025. Astounding, but not surprising, given the popularity of wellness in the sectors of personal care, tourism, and even the workplace. Health is the new wealth!
Enter the Era of Biohacking
Biohacking, or ‘garage biology’, is the trending movement for self-imposed lifestyle changes aimed at improving overall health and wellness.
Everyday Biohacks
Some examples of smaller changes that fall under the biohacking banner include:
- Wearing a smartwatch with targeted apps
- Infra-red and LED therapies
- Cold water therapy
- Supplements and dietary changes
- Results-driven skincare
Tech & Data-Driven Biohacks
On a broader scale, biohacking can tap into tech and data through DNA and blood testing to provide raw insights and focused guidance on improving biological makeup.
Epigenetics and Biohacking
Epigenetics is a relatively new field studying how chemicals inside your body’s cells control gene activity (1). Understanding epigenetics can help improve and shape our health - including our skin!
Using skincare that helps sway biological processes, such as the ageing process, may be one way to teach your skin to ‘behave younger’. Epigenetic skincare includes ingredients that may boost cellular health, such as:
- Potent vitamins (e.g., Vitamin A)
- Polyphenols
- Antioxidants
Biologi’s Plant-Based Approach
Because Biologi is plant-based skincare, each of our products can contain specific and varied plant actives including phenolic acids - a class of polyphenols, Vitamins A, D, E, K, potent antioxidants like Vitamin C, and amino acids like tryptophan (an alpha amino acid).
-
Bm Regenerate Anti-ageing Serum: contains protocatechuic - a great source of polyphenols.
-
Bk Vitamin C Face & Eye Serum: contains Vitamin C - a superior antioxidant.
-
Br Rosehip Oil: contains plant-based Vitamin A - a naturally regenerative ingredient.
-

- Bf Restore Face & Body Serum: contains amino acids - skin-replenishing ingredients.
Making Biohacking Work for You
Whether you’re looking to simply improve the health of your skin, or make considered changes to your overall lifestyle, some aspects of biohacking may suit your goals. However, before undertaking larger lifestyle or health biohacking changes, we recommend a simple check-in with your medical practitioner.
