Prebiotics and Probiotics in Skincare - What Do They Do for Your Skin?

We all have heard of Probiotics and Prebiotics being used to improve our gut health, but there is now a new trend in the skincare industry of having Probiotics and Prebiotics in skincare products too.

The relation between our gut health and skin health


To understand the relation of the two - gut health and skin health, it comes down to communication. Your gut is the main communicator of how well your body performs or works. If your gut flora isn't balanced, you might suffer from inflammatory skin conditions such as acne, rosacea, sensitivity, eczema, and dehydration.




The Skin Microbiome


Same as our gut, our skin also has its own microbiome, which helps shield you from harm. The skin microbiome refers to the mix of microorganisms that live on the skin. A lot of the microorganisms present on the skin's surface are similar to the ones found in the gut. And, like our gut, some of these microorganisms are better than others.

Our skin flora is in a constant balancing act between harmful and helpful microorganisms. This balances determines our skin immunity and health.


Probiotics and Prebiotics in skincare improve your skin's immunity by:


  • Enhancing the skin's natural barrier defence - A combination of Prebiotics and Probiotics in skincare will improve skin's protection against environmental assaults, ensuring skin has what it needs to keep its barrier intact, smooth, and healthy.

  • Balancing the skin's microbiome - An unbalanced skin microbiome can lead to certain skin conditions. Prebiotics and Probiotics can help rebalance the skin microbiome, keeping it intact and healthy to fight against external aggressions and inflammatory conditions or concerns.
