The skin is exposed to external influences that favor the growth of gram positive organisms. These grams are responsible for the quality of our skin as well as its condition. When skin is compromised, good organisms on our skin can become problematic, causing acne and many other problems. Studies have shown that changes in skin microflora play a significant role in skin conditions such as atopic dermatitis, psoriasis, acne and even skin cancer.
As we understand the skin better and its way of functioning, it is no surprise that probiotics begin to play an important role in new cosmetic products. Prebiotics are carbohydrates that negatively affect the growth of the pathogen and preserve useful bacteria on the skin surface. They can easily fit into products and are an excellent alternative to live bacteria. Using good bacteria on the skin surface can improve the condition of problem skin, dry and sensitive and reactive skin. I hope that in the future we will have even more products that will help us protect the skin both from the outside and from the inside.
Products that contain probiotics, which you can round off the entire face cleansing routine:
Andalou Naturals Apricot Probiotic Cleansing Milk for dry and very dry skin. A complex combination of fruit stem cells, resveratrol CoQ10 and probiotics mixed with apricots and borage oils, gently removes make-up and dirt, without drying the skin out.
Clinique Redness Relief Cream is a gentle, oil-free cream that combats redness and signs of inflammation. It is intended for people with pronounced redness and rosacea.
TULA Exfoliating Treatment mask is a face mask that removes impurities from the surface to detoxify the skin. It contains probiotics so it balances the skin and makes it soft and supple.
There is also Eminence Clear Skin probiotic moisturizer, a daily cream that helps in detoxifying problematic skin. Reduces inflammatory processes and reduces appearance of inflammation and redness. It's best to combine with a cleansing gel from the same line.
If you have redness and problematic skin on the body, I suggest that you also look for NIKEL probiotic cream to restore very damaged skin. Dairy proteins reduce the reactions caused by skin irritation and reduce the time of inflammation. This is a Croatian brand.
