Skincare products containing prebiotics ad probiotics have evidently proven to give your skin a glowing complexion. Well, you might wonder, – This claim is promised by most of the products out there and they even work. But let us tell you, that while all those products may work from the outside and give you results in a matter of a few days, prebiotics work from within. They work at the cellular level. Additionally, products curated by us are 100% ORGANIC, made from the purest produce.
Our newly launched PREBIOTIC RANGE contains an array of products that work for the betterment of your skin’s microbiome. This entire range of prebiotic formulas cater to different skin concerns and are suitable for all skin types. So, you do not have to scout for products based on your skin type.
But, let us explain to you in detail the kind of prebiotic product you must be looking for based on your specific skin type and concern.
- For oily or acne prone skin – People who experience a frequent occurrence of natural oil on their face or particularly the T zone area must opt for a purifying prebiotic face wash. The product must be gentle on your skin as well as cleansing enough. It should get rid of all the dirt and excess oil without drying out your skin or disturbing its moisture barrier. Do proper research on how it will affect your skin pH balance as well. We suggest you follow this cleansing process with a lightweight moisturizer or a face mist. Doing so will calm the skin and provide some refreshment.
- For dry skin – Hydration is super important for your skin, especially if you have dry skin. Prefer a hydrating prebiotic day cream or a light moisturizer that can stay on your face (maybe even under your makeup) all day. Doing so you trap moisture onto your skin, balancing the skin’s microflora.
- For sensitive or combination skin – Choose a prebiotic face serum that is light in consistency and contains magical ingredients like Hyaluronic Acid, Vitamin C, superfood extracts, etc. All these nourishing ingredients are suitable for sensitive skin types and will help replenish your skin’s flora. Face serums like these also make your skin glow like a goddess! Please choose a silicone-free or even a scent-free face serum.
Prebiotic skincare free from Sulfates, Parabens, Artificial Preservatives & Colors will give the best hug to your skin. The lesser chemicals and inorganic additives, the better your skin will bloom in the longer run.
Understand this – Along with adapting prebiotic and probiotic skincare routines, make sure you eat them too. Make your diet inclusive of all the foods that will keep your gut healthy. Because
a healthy gut = healthy skin!
