Probiotics are live microorganisms with numerous health benefits when consumed or applied to the body. They play a crucial role in keeping the microbiome in balance. Probiotic skincare has a number of beneficial properties for the skin, such as maintaining a healthy pH value, strengthening the skin's protective barrier, retaining moisture and reducing redness. However, it is important to know that probiotics in skincare alone are not a one-strike solution as they work best when combined with prebiotics. Prebiotics naturally encourage probiotics to grow and help them thrive so they can do their job effectively.
