coperni releases C+, a series of regenerative clothing infused with probiotics and prebiotics

"Skincare within regenerative clothing defines Coperni's C+, a series of everyday wear infused with probiotics and prebiotics. Capable of restoring the skin's microbiome, each garment contains living microorganisms that interact with the skin during wear, support the skin's natural balance and help it repair itself over time. The C+ line includes a bodysuit, a top, and leggings, all of which are made using a biobased fabric that holds a special treatment called HeiQ Skin Care."

"Inside each thread of the textile is a bio-based matrix, which acts as a storage layer for the probiotic and prebiotic ingredients. This layer protects the microorganisms until the clothing is worn. When the fabric touches the skin, body heat, friction, and movement start a slow process of release. The microorganisms transfer from the textile surface to the skin's surface through this contact. This process supports the skin's microbiome, the layer of natural bacteria that protects the skin from irritation and damage."

Coperni's C+ line comprises a bodysuit, top, and leggings made from a light, biobased, stretchable textile treated with HeiQ Skin Care. Probiotics are embedded live in the fabric and prebiotics provide nutrients to support their growth. A bio-based matrix inside each thread stores and protects the microorganisms until contact. Body heat, friction, and movement trigger a gradual release that transfers microorganisms from textile to skin. The transferred microorganisms support and help restore the skin's microbiome, improving natural moisture retention and protection against irritation and dryness during wear.
