Our favourite probiotic treatments and their benefits

Blemishes, minor (or major) sensitivities, premature skin aging... what if many beauty problems were partly due to an unbalanced skin flora? After years of research into the positive influence of probiotics on intestinal flora, it is now scientifically proven that probiotics also have their part to play in keeping skin healthy. Here's an overview of their benefits and our favorite super-bacteria-based products!

#seo : probiotics

What are probiotics?

To understand their role, we first need to look at our own bacterial flora. From the moment we're born, we build up our own protective shield of good bacteria (this shield is called the the microbiota), to protect us from aggressions such as infections and skin inflammation. The problem is that we all have different coats to protect ourselves: let's say that some skins only have a small jacket and are therefore more easily subject to aggression, while others are bundled up in a large down jacket... These billions of bacteria are therefore just as beneficial for the immune system as they are for our skin!

Why probiotics are our skin's new allies

Because the world is made up of good guys and bad guys... there are also good bacteria and bad bacteria. And when bad (pathogenic) bacteria invade the skin's surface, probiotics are there to produce substances harmful to these bad bacteria and thus eliminate them. So they're our friendly bacteria's backup! Probiotics have more than one trick up their sleeve: in addition to being great anti-inflammatory, they rebalance and strengthen our skin flora. It's easy to see why, in addition to dairy products, probiotics are used in skin care products for sensitive skin, as well as in anti-imperfections products, since it's the bad "p.acnes" bacteria that cause pimples.

Ever heard of "inflam'aging"? One of the mechanisms of skin aging, is the inflammation of our cellswhich can be accelerated by pollution, stress or our lifestyle. Being anti-inflammatory, these micro-organisms delay wrinkles and loss of firmness.
