So what is the skin microbiome? In easy terms, it is a community of “good” bacteria that defend against pathogens and keep your barrier strong, and when your microbiome is balanced, you get fewer breakouts, less sensitivity, and better hydration.
(Did you know your skin’s good bugs hold the key to healthy skin?)
So how do we maintain this “good” bacteria?
Interesting right? However, it requires some support from us to keep this ecosystem happy and going, here is how to support it:
1. Gentle cleansing—skip harsh sulfates that wipe out good bacteria.
2. Pre- and probiotics—look for formulas with sugars or fermented extracts that feed your flora, which help nourish beneficial microbes to help you in acne combat.
3. Lifestyle boost—manage stress, eat fiber-rich foods, and avoid over-exfoliating.
