Prebiotics - Prebiotics Skincare Routines
A prebiotic cleanser will stimulate the repopulation of "good" bacteria in your skin's microbiome.
Using a prebiotic skincare cleanser like Aleavia day and night helps gently clear away buildup from external stressors such as dirt, toxins, excess oil and pollution—opening up your pores and allowing your skin to breathe. Using prebiotics, the cleanser then nourishes and feeds the microbiota in your skin, making it balanced, strong, healthy and moisturized.
What prebiotic ingredients should you look for in skin care?
It’s crucial to be aware of the ingredients in your prebiotic skincare and their functions. The goal is to find products that contain a balance of prebiotic, exfoliating, detoxifying and moisturizing properties in their ingredients. This provides your skin with the holistic care it needs to be healthy and robust. For best results, use 100% organic skincare with ingredients such as:
Organic Sea Kelp
Organic sea kelp is packed with vital antioxidants that protect the skin from UV light, free debris, pollution and other toxic environmental substances. It’s also loaded with fatty-acids that not only permeate your skin with moisture, but also retain the moisture through continued use, making your skin smooth and hydrated.
Dead Sea Salt
Sea salt is full of minerals that are beneficial to the body and skin. It’s popular in skincare products due to its detoxifying, hydrating and exfoliating properties which unclog your pores and allow your skin to breathe.
Aloe Vera
Aloe vera is known to have over 200 biological compounds that range from sugars, enzymes, vitamins to amino acids and salicylic acids. These compounds offer a plethora of benefits such as moisturizing, hydrating and soothing the skin, making it radiant regardless of age.
Coconut Oil
Because coconut oil has anti-inflammatory properties, it’s ideal for irritated skin. It also increases the skin's collagen production due to the presence of lauric acid that helps the skin maintain elasticity and firmness (which helps with anti-aging).
Plant Glycerin
Plant glycerin is vegan friendly, acts as a moisturizer, prevents infections and accelerates wound healing.
