With the arrival of colder weather, our skin becomes more sensitive, more reactive, and sometimes drier. Behind these seasonal imbalances often lies a little-known player: the skin microbiome. This invisible ecosystem plays a major role in the health and beauty of the skin.
What is the skin microbiome?
The skin microbiome consists of thousands of microorganisms: bacteria, yeasts and microfungi that naturally live on the surface of the skin.
Far from being harmful, these microorganisms are essential: they protect the skin from aggressions, regulate its pH and participate in the repair of the skin barrier.
Why is it becoming unbalanced?
Wind, cold, temperature changes and indoor heating disrupt natural hydration.
Harsh cleansers or unsuitable skincare products destroy part of this protective flora. The result: tightness, redness, and blemishes appear.
Restoring balance with respectful care
At Pier Augé, the formulas are designed to respect the skin microbiome and strengthen the protective barrier.
Biomimetic active ingredients, gentle emulsions, and non-aggressive textures allow for:
preserve the diversity of the microbiome;
hydrate without stripping;
to soothe and strengthen the skin.
In practice, opt for gentle cleansers that respect the skin flora, and limit overly frequent exfoliation to preserve the natural balance of the microbiome.
Incorporate a rebalancing cream or serum to restore comfort and tolerance.
Taking care of your microbiome means protecting the skin's natural intelligence.
Balanced skin is stronger, brighter, and sustainably healthy skin.
