Our Research Center
Rootborne™ operates as an independent, closed-loop research studio with a focus on exploratory formulation science. Our work centers on molecular interaction, delivery system development, and long-term skin compatibility assessments using plant-based compounds.
​
We conduct structural and behavioral evaluations of delivery systems under variable conditions to support consistency, compatibility, and performance across formulation phases. All research is conducted in-house, using controlled protocols and direct ingredient sourcing. Rootborne™ does not outsource development or contract manufacturing.
​
Our facility is not open to the public and is not affiliated with retail or wellness services.
Our Approach
We work slowly and methodically, guided by scientific integrity rather than speed or hype. Each study explores the structural and behavioral properties of natural compounds in context—within lipid layers, hydration mechanisms, and formulation matrices designed to model real-world skin environments.
​
This isn’t skincare marketing. It’s exploratory science, rooted in respect for the skin and the botanicals we study. Our findings inform system design, not consumer trends.
About
Rootborne™ is led by an independent research formulator with a multidisciplinary background in applied science, sustainable systems, and molecular design. The lab is private and does not offer in-person access, tours, or retail services. All communication is handled through direct inquiry.
​
We are a private research initiative focused on independent formulation and delivery system development. All formulation work is conducted in-house, with no outsourced manufacturing or retail sales.
