1. A system for modifying a cosmetic product, comprising:

  • an ingredient-microbe interaction dataset including information associated with growth-promoting interactions or growth-inhibiting interactions between one or more types of reference microbes and one or more reference cosmetic ingredients; and

    a computing device including a processor and circuitry, the circuitry includingcircuitry configured to receive information associated with a microbe profile of an individual, the microbe profile including an identity and a distribution of one or more types of microbes on a skin surface of the individual;

    circuitry configured to receive information associated with an ingredient list of the cosmetic product, the ingredient list including one or more cosmetic ingredients contained within the cosmetic product;

    circuitry configured to compare the received information associated with the microbe profile of the individual and the received information associated with the ingredient list of the cosmetic product to the ingredient-microbe interaction dataset;

    circuitry configured to identify at least one of a growth-promoting or a growth-inhibiting interaction between at least one of the one or more cosmetic ingredients in the ingredient list of the cosmetic product and at least one of the one or more types of microbes in the microbe profile of the individual based on the comparison of the microbe profile of the individual and the ingredient list of the cosmetic product to the ingredient-microbe interaction dataset;

    circuitry configured to recommend a modification to the ingredient list of the cosmetic product in response to the identified growth-promoting interaction or growth-inhibiting interaction; and

    circuitry configured to report to a user the recommended modification to the ingredient list of the cosmetic product.
