Our favourite probiotic products and their benefits

Imperfections, small (or large) sensitivities, premature skin aging... What if many beauty problems came in part from an unbalanced skin flora? After years of research into the positive influence of probiotics on the intestinal flora, it is now scientifically proven that they also have their cards to play for healthy skin. Let's take a look at their benefits and our favorite superbug-based products!

What are probiotics?

To understand their role, we must first look at our own bacterial flora. From the moment we are born, we build up our own bodyguard of good bacteria (it is this shield that we call the microbiota), in order to protect us from aggressions such as infections, or even skin inflammation. The problem is that we all have a different coat 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 wrapped up in a large down jacket... These billions of bacteria are therefore just as beneficial for the immune system as for our skin!

Why are probiotics the new skin saviours?

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.

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