We all know the importance of probiotics for healthy intestinal flora. For the skin, it's the same! All like our intestines, the hydrolipidic film of our skin is colonized by billions of living micro-organisms (bacteria, parasites, yeasts) which constitute the skin flora, or our skin's immune system. When balanced, it protects our skin from pathogens and infections. On the other hand, when it is unbalanced, protection is no longer provided, which is the cause of skin imperfections.
Skin flora (also known as skin microbiota) varies from person to person and according to certain factors such as age, sex, hormones, temperature, immune system. For example, a hormonal imbalance promotes an imbalance in the skin flora and thus the appearance of skin imperfections. You have certainly noticed that we have more imperfections and small spots before our periods.
You will have understood: a balanced skin flora is essential to have healthy skin, without imperfections.
The skin barrier is the first line of defense against external aggressions. Prebiotics work by strengthening this barrier in several ways. First of all, they stimulate the production of essential lipids, which are the fundamental building blocks of skin structure. In addition, prebiotics promote cell regeneration, thereby accelerating the skin's natural renewal process.
Well-hydrated skin is the key to looking healthy and feeling comfortable. Prebiotics help maintain this hydration by feeding the good bacteria, which in turn stimulate the production of hyaluronic acid. This natural moisturizer locks in water, ensuring skin is supple, soft and visibly hydrated.
Skin inflammation is often the trigger for a variety of skin problems, from acne to more severe conditions like eczema. Prebiotics intervene by regulating the skin's immune response, thus acting as modulators of inflammation. By soothing inflammatory responses, prebiotics help calm the skin, making it less prone to blemishes and redness.
For healthy-looking skin, it is strongly recommended to integrate prebiotics into your skincare routine by choosing serums - such as Perfecting Serum - or moisturizing creams - like Essential Cream - reinforced with prebiotics. This helps balance the skin flora on a daily basis and contributes to maintaining healthy, strong and well-hydrated skin. Treatments enhanced with prebiotics also help reduce inflammation and prevent skin imperfections or acne.
Regular consumption of probiotics not only improves gut health and strengthens the immune system, it also plays a significant role in promoting healthy and glowing skin. Probiotics, by promoting the balance of intestinal flora, help reduce systemic inflammation, a major factor in many skin problems such as acne and eczema. By regulating the immune response, these beneficial microorganisms help alleviate unwanted skin reactions. In addition, probiotics actively participate in improving the skin barrier by promoting the production of ceramides, essential lipids which maintain hydration and protect the skin from external aggressions.
