Yes, probiotics are not just good for our tummy, they are also beneficial for our skin! Probiotics are basically “good bacteria” that can help create a balance with “harmful bacteria” in our body. Natural sources of probiotics, such as yogurt, are usually recommended by doctors when we are fighting infections that require antibiotics that tend to kill off all bacteria (not just the bad ones). In situations where our “good bacteria” is affected, probiotics can help repopulate good bacteria maintaining our metabolic activities at a healthy level. Amazingly, probiotics can also help the healing process of skin conditions.
How Probiotics Help Our Skin
Topical probiotics can be used to treat conditions such as acne and eczema by balancing the bacteria associated with these conditions. Probiotics are effective in treating acne because bacterial imbalance and inflammation are the causes of certain types of acne. By applying probiotics to affected areas, we can soothe any flare-ups, normalize the skin’s natural bacterial and moisture balance. This will bring the skin back to its natural state.
Not All Probiotics Are Equal
Eminence Organic Skin Care does not recommend that you create your own probiotic face masks because often products intended for consumption can vary significantly in their levels of beneficial ingredients. Even beneficial ingredients, at high levels, may irritate the skin and cause extreme photosensitivity and even serious chemical burns. What’s more, if you are using these homemade masks on skin that is already raw and sore due to acne or eczema, they could make your condition worse. It’s far safer to avoid homemade masks, especially since there are professional probiotic skin care products available at affordable prices that meet industry-wide safety requirements.

How To Apply Probiotics On Our Skin
The most effective ways to apply probiotic skin care products are massaging them in or leaving them on to be absorbed into the skin. These methods allow the probiotics to improve your skin’s moisture barrier and balance it.
Your skin type and conditions may determine how often and for which areas of your face you incorporate these products in your skin care routine. For example, for dry skin and when dealing with some eczema or the odd blemish, you can use a probiotic face mask once a week. If you have oily skin and are trying to manage more frequent blemishes, it may help to incorporate probiotics in your daily cleansing and moisturizing, as well as a weekly face mask, to balance the bad bacteria that may contribute to your breakouts.
