Microbiome-friendly, minimalist skincare for reactive skin

Founded by Irene Chong — a former Singapore Registered Nurse, skincare formulator and certified Pastiche skin consultant — Sage & Ylang (SAY) began from a personal need for skincare that felt genuinely safe for sensitive skin. Rather than chasing fast results, Irene formulates microbiome-friendly products built for skin stability, predictability and long-term comfort. Guided by its Tri-Barrier Biome Method, the label supports the microbiome, reinforces the barrier and targets concerns without disrupting balance.
