Prebiotics, when used in skin care, are a food source for the skin's "good" microbiome, more commonly known as bacteria. Just like our fingerprint, we all have our own microflora ecosystem that is unique to us, made up of "good" and "bad" bacteria.

A healthy and balanced skin needs a well-functioning barrier function whose task is to keep away invaders such as pollutants from penetrating and triggering damage and irritation. Probiotics protect and maintain the skin's microbiome by feeding only the "good" microflora, thus strengthening the skin barrier.

What then is the difference between probiotics and probiotics? Briefly explained, probiotics are the "live" bacteria that are usually found in the digestive system. They are important for good gut and skin health. Prebiotics act as "food" for our good bacteria, which means that probiotics cannot survive without prebiotics.

In Bagliora's products, we use the scientific skin prebiotic Prebuilin FOS, which strengthens and protects the skin's microbiome so that harmful microorganisms cannot penetrate. The result is more healthy skin with a stronger skin barrier.

Do you have sensitive and easily irritated skin? Are products with added probiotics preferable when you want to build a stronger skin barrier and boost your skin's microbiome. We therefore usually recommend our customers to include Hydrating mousse cleanser and Collagen superfood serum in their routine. Two products containing prebiotics.
