In the more than 60-year history of Monde Selection, only one company from Taiwan has ever received the prestigious Prize of the Jury in the Cosmetics category.
That company is REVIVEBIO.
At the 65th Monde Selection Awards Ceremony, held in Paris, France, on June 9, 2026, Taiwan-based microbial biotechnology company REVIVEBIO achieved a historic milestone. Its innovative skincare product, iMME’iTCH Instant Soothing Essence, not only earned the Grand Gold Quality Award, but was also honored with the Prize of the Jury—the highest distinction and the only award of its kind presented globally in the Cosmetics category in 2026.
Powered by REVIVEBIO’s proprietary microbiome platform technology, the product utilizes highly active microbiome-derived ingredients developed through advanced microbial biotechnology. Its groundbreaking scientific innovation, minimalist yet safety-focused formulation, outstanding efficacy, and rapid soothing effects for sensitive and irritated skin earned unanimous praise from an international panel of experts in medicine, biology, chemistry, and quality evaluation.
The Prize of the Jury represents the highest honor granted by Monde Selection. Among all products that have already achieved the Grand Gold Quality Award, only five finalists are selected by the jury. From these elite finalists, a single product is chosen as the global winner. To earn this distinction, a product must demonstrate not only outstanding quality and performance, but also disruptive technological innovation or a truly unique and pioneering concept.
REVIVEBIO’s achievement in 2026 is far more than a victory for a single brand. It stands as a powerful testament to Taiwan’s world-class capabilities in microbiome science and biotechnology innovation. This landmark accomplishment demonstrates that Taiwan’s research and development in microbiome technology has reached a level capable of competing with—and impressing—the world’s leading experts.
More importantly, this trophy symbolizes global recognition at the highest level, representing excellence in cosmetic innovation, quality, and efficacy. It is a historic and record-breaking achievement for both REVIVEBIO and Taiwan’s biotechnology industry.
