Probiotics and prebiotics have become part of mainstream skincare and wellness, but many people are still unaware of the benefits that the supplementation of these “good” bacteria” can provide. From balancing the digestive system (and helping to alleviate the symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome) and possibly minimizing depression to promoting healthy, radiant skin and perhaps playing a role in controlling skin conditions like eczema, we’ve just started to scratch the surface when it comes to the probiotics and prebiotics. Here, a few ways to work them into your daily routine—and remember, they definitely can’t hurt!
Seed
Seed is all about balancing our bodies’ unique microbiomes (both inside and out), and bacteria like prebiotics and probiotics are a major part of the equation. Offering capsule-based supplement formulas for both women and men, Seed is driven by science and the desire to share the far-reaching benefits that pre- and probiotics have on our overall wellness. The research doesn’t lie, and you can reap the benefits of their extensively tested supplements with just three capsules a day (no refrigeration required). For the record, celebrities like Karlie Kloss, Sophia Bush, Emily Weiss, Rachel Zoe, and Ellie Goulding are totally onboard.
Joyome
Combining a prebiotic formula designed to help balance the skin’s natural microbiome, 11 proven-effective active ingredients and a delivery system that helps get these ingredients to the precise part of the skin where they are needed, Joyome delivers the benefits of microbiome-driven skincare with two products designed for morning and evening use. Beyond keeping the skin’s essential bacteria in balance, these serums feature anti-aging peptides, a gentle retinol derivative, brightening azelaic acid, hydrating hyaluronic acid, radiance-enhancing niacinamide and barrier-boosting ceramides for a comprehensive approach that goes well beyond most of the other skincare products you’re using.
Exuviance Probiotic Lysate Anti-Pollution Essence

Designed to help neutralize the detrimental effects of our modern lifestyles that accelerate skin aging, this vegan, gluten-, GMO-, paraben-, sulfate- and phthalate-free mask restores vitality to stressed skin with just two or three applications a week—and you’ll know it's working when the color changes from green to pink!
