What is the ‘skin microbiome?’

“The skin microbiome plays a crucial role in maintaining a healthy, radiant complexion. Having a balanced microbiome is an essential building block for your healthiest skin” says Victor. “If your microbiome is in tune, skin is better at warding off environmental aggressors like pollution. It improves skin’s defense mechanisms against triggers that can cause the skin to become inflamed, irritated and sensitive.”

Just like your gut microbiome, there are the trillions of bacteria that live on our skin. The skin has its own unique ecosystem of microscopic organisms. Keeping it in balance is essential for maintaining a hydrated and glowing complexion. Victor says; “In the last decade, the skin microbiome has emerged as an exciting new field of research. It’s a whole new ecosystem that’s vital to our health. Our skin microbiome protects our skin from pathogens, which in turn helps to support a healthy skin barrier.”

Doe everyone have the same skin microbiome?

According to Victor, “Just like your fingerprints, your skin microbiome is unique to you.” The microbiome varies with age, gender, environment and lifestyle. We actually inherit our specific microbiome from our mothers and as we age it changes over time.

What’s causes our skin microbiome to get weaker?

Our skin microbiome changes with lifestyle and environment. Everything from your diet to spending less time in nature can affect it. “Using too many products, and especially chemical laden products, will disrupt skin’s pH balance and make your skin microbiome weaker. This leads to skin problems like dryness, breakouts, oily skin, redness, inflammation and even premature ageing.” Said Victor. “The impact of the pandemic also means people are more hygienic than ever. Over-washing and stripping skin of natural oils with harsh antibacterial formulas, it all contributes to a weaker microbiome. That’s why we have put so much time and research into developing the NEW Restore PRO range. It’s our first ever range to not only target the visible signs of ageing but it also helps to balance and support your skin microbiome.”

How do I keep a healthy skin microbiome?

VIctor advises, “be mindful of harsh treatments or overusing things like exfoliants. Avoid skin stripping products that contain Parabens and SLS. Instead, choose naturally enriched, balancing ingredients targeted toward improving skin barrier function, like the Pre and Probiotics our  Restore PRO range. Alongside a simple skincare routine, you can also support your skin holistically by ingesting Probiotic supplements, (as well as applying them topically). It all works together synergistically to keep your skin’s eco-system balanced, healthy and happy.”

What are Prebiotics for skin?

There are both Pre and Probiotics in the Restore PRO range to support to a healthy microbiome, while infusing skin with the goodness of Lactobacillus bacteria. Prebiotics are described as the “food source” for the healthy bacteria in your skin microbiome, keeping skin healthy and well nourished for longer. Victor says, “We have developed the latest Restore PRO Cleansers to include Prebiotics that help restore skin’s eco-system balance. They promote the growth of the beneficial bacteria living in your skin microbiome.”

What are Probiotics for skin?

Probiotics are additional healthy bacteria that may not naturally grow on your skin microbiome but when introduced, they help to support the existing bacteria. This leads to a balanced skin microbiome that can help to minimise the appearance of eczema, acne, dry skin, and even wrinkles. You can find Pre and Probiotics in the Restore PRO serum.
