Ever wondered what's really in those "probiotic" skincare products lining the shelves? Dr. Stefanie cuts through the marketing jargon to reveal a surprising truth – there are actually no live bacteria in any skincare products on the market today. Such formulations simply wouldn't remain stable!
So what exactly are we putting on our faces when we use products claiming probiotic benefits? In this episode, Dr. Stefanie breaks down the area into four distinct categories that bring clarity to this confusing skincare trend.
Understanding these distinctions matters because supporting your skin's microbiome offers multiple benefits beyond what most people realize. These ingredients can balance your skin's bacterial ecosystem, modulate immune response, lower skin pH to favour beneficial microbes, strengthen your skin barrier, and provide powerful anti-inflammatory effects. Dr. Stefanie's clear explanations help demystify this trendy but often misunderstood category of skincare.
