In Summary
New research highlights the link between gut and skin microbiome health (the hydrating biofilm that nourishes and protects our skin) and how the right probiotics & nutrients can restore, rebalance and improve the microbiome.
At Beauty & Vitality we have taken these research insights to create a unique combination of pre & probiotics combined with skin-loving nutrients expertly formulated to nourish and strengthen your skin's microbiome.
These products are expertly manufactured here in the UK, are Vegan Friendly, and delivered in the UK's only dual product skincare kit combining a multi-nutrient capsule with moisturiser making it easier to get the glow inside and out.
Formulated from the latest scientific research
Microbiome health can be improved through topical applications and ingestion of pre and probiotics which in combination have the capacity to optimise, maintain, even restore the skin’s microbiome, by boosting the good bacteria and minimising the bad. One study reveals the positive effects probiotics have on slowing the signs of skin ageing, and how they can restore acidic skin pH, alleviate oxidative stress, reduce photoaging, improve the skin barrier function, and enhance hair quality[2]. Other studies suggest there may be beneficial treatments for Acne and Atopic Dermatitis (AD). Further studies[4] have concluded when the gut and skin’s microbiome ecosystem is out of balance, this can lead to infections and skin conditions such as acne, eczema and rosacea.
Skincare products, with prebiotics and probiotics, taken both orally and when applied directly to the skin help to restore microbiome balance which can help reduce eczema, acne, dry skin, even wrinkles and skin aging. Probiotics feed healthy bacteria to balance the skin’s pH and protect against free radical damage. Prebiotics feed the good bacteria that help balance the skin’s pH and support the skin’s barrier function boosting healthy bacteria. Applying a prebiotic and probiotic directly to the skin is an effective boost for the microbiome and can work more efficiently when paired together. [5] Probiotics taken orally help create a healthy gut, reducing toxicity in the blood stream and so improving the absorption of important minerals, vitamins and nutrients that help the body’s ability to rid itself of waste that causes inflammation.
These research insights encouraged the Beauty&Vitality team to develop new skincare ranges that have culminated in the innovation that is the UK's only dual product kit that delivers skincare inside and out, as the following video explains:
