MINO Labs, LLC(“MINO Labs”), a privately held specialty pharmaceutical company, is proud to announce that its patentedCannaXR™cannabidiol (CBD) cream,DNA Defense Daily Cream, has been named “Best Skin Care Innovation” by the 2025 Marie Claire Skin & Hair Awards.
After five months of rigorous testing, swatching, massaging and swiping on the latest options in the skincare and hair categories, theMarie Claireteam, along with an esteemed panel of industry judges, recognized the year's most effective, cutting-edge products across skincare and haircare.
In November 2024, MINO Labs published a groundbreaking clinical study in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology (JAAD), marking the first-ever in-human clinical trial to demonstrate that a CBD-based topical can reduce ultraviolet A UVA-induced DNA damage at the cellular level. The study found that the CielementsMD® DNA Defense Daily Cream helps prevent both nuclear and mitochondrial DNA mutations associated with accelerated skin aging and skin cancer.
“When CBD is stabilized, delivered effectively, and retained in the skin, it unlocks a new level of protection,” said Brian Berman, MD,PhD, principal investigator and past Vice President of the American Academy of Dermatology. “For the first time, we have clinical evidence that a CBD-based topical can reduce UVA-induced DNA damage in human skin cells. That means we're no longer just talking about blocking sun exposure from the surface, we're talking about in combination, actively defending the DNA within skin cells. This could signal a paradigm shift in how we think about anti-aging and cancer prevention in dermatology.”
Created by pioneers in dermatology, this formula is backed by rigorous science and real-world clinical studies. Unlike traditional products that rely on superficial barriers to prevent damaging UVA rays from wreaking havoc on the skin, CielementsMD® works synergistically with sunscreen to protect from within. This non-nano Daily DNA / UVA Defense Cream harnesses the groundbreaking combination of CannaXR® and Z-pod® Technology to transform skin protection and rejuvenation. This patented delivery system is designed to penetrate deeply, maximize absorption of active ingredients and ensure their stability for long-lasting results.
With this advanced formulation, the CBD in CielementsMD® is 12 times more potent than other products, even six hours after application, providing unparalleled mitochondrial defense against UVA-induced damage.
“Effective delivery has been the missing link between CBD's proven benefits and real-world skincare results. CielementsMD® leverages advanced Z-pod™ technology to overcome this barrier, unlocking CBD's protective and rejuvenating properties and opening the door to a new generation of effective, science-backed skin care,” stated Adam Friedman, MD,FAAD, Professor and Chair of Dermatology at The George Washington University School of Medicine and Health Sciences and co-inventor of the Z-pod™ technology.
“We are incredibly honored to be named as the Best Skin Care Innovation by the 2025 Marie Claire Skin & Hair Awards,” said Manuel Cosme Odabachian, CEO of MINO Labs. “This recognition affirms the years of research and innovation that went into developing CannaXR™ and the CielementsMD® DNA Defense Daily Cream. We're proud to offer a product that not only enhances the skin's defenses but supports long-term skin wellness at the cellular level.”
