The science
The health of your skin depends largely on your microbiome, the billions of invisible microorganisms that live on its surface. Changes in pH, hydration, and environment can affect the balance of the microbiome. An unbalanced natural flora can contribute to many skin conditions, such as dry, flaky skin and blemish formation. Balance moisturizer uses pre- and postbiotics to support the balance of the skin microbiome. Postbiotics are live bacteria that mix with the natural microbiome and alter its composition. They can change the pH of the skin to encourage the growth of good bacteria and produce antimicrobials to help protect the skin. Prebiotics are carbohydrate-based and act as food for the growth of postbiotics at the expense of bad bacteria on the skin. Pre- and postbiotics act synergistically to help the skin regain its natural balance.
