Prebiotic Cleanser

The skin microbiome (ecosystem) contains both good and bad bacteria. A microbiome in balance offers protection against bad bacteria and ensures a healthier and less irritated skin. 

Dry, damaged and atopic skin is often a result of a disturbed balance in the microbiome. Imbalances in the microbiome are problematic since it allows bad bacteria (such as Staphylococcus aureus) to multiply and outnumber the good bacteria. This impairs and sometimes damages the immune system and barrier function of the skin, which can lead to various skin problems. 

At Bak Probiotic Skincare we look at skin in an innovative way and add billions of live good probiotic bacteria directly on the skin to protect and restore the natural skin microbiome and fight off bad bacteria.

• How to use

  Wet the skin with lukewarm water and massage a few drops of the cleanser onto the skin. Rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.
  
  The cleanser is oil-based and free from sulphates which is why it doesn’t foam. It will remove dirt and most make-up. Avoid contact with eyes. Suitable for the face and body (but not the intimate area).

• Follow with probiotics

  Once the skin is clean, there will be a trace of prebiotics left on the skin from the cleanser. This is the perfect time to apply a probiotic oil or serum.
  
  The probiotics (good bacteria) can feed of the prebiotic traces left on the skin and will be better able to settle in and actively create metabolites.

• Store prebiotics at room temperature

  The cleanser can be always stored at room temperature.
