Postbiotics, The new generation of microbiome-friendly skincare

The science of the skin microbiome has significantly changed the way we perceive skin health. Today, we know that the surface of the skin hosts a complex ecosystem of beneficial microorganisms, known as the skin microbiome, which is a key factor in the proper functioning of the skin barrier.

When this natural balance is disrupted by environmental factors, UV radiation, stress, or aggressive cleansing products, the skin can experience dryness, sensitivity, discomfort, and an uneven appearance.

Modern cosmetology is now turning to ingredients that not only target the surface of the skin but also contribute to the maintenance of this valuable microbiome.

What are Postbiotics?

Postbiotics are bioactive molecules derived from the natural fermentation process of beneficial microorganisms.

Unlike probiotics, which contain live microorganisms, postbiotics contain the valuable components produced during fermentation, such as metabolites, peptides, enzymes, and other bioactive molecules.

This makes them particularly stable in cosmetic formulations, while maintaining their high biological value.

Why are they considered so important?

Postbiotics are one of the most significant developments in modern cosmetic research, as they contribute to the natural balance of the skin.

Their use can support:

• the normal function of the skin barrier

• the maintenance of microbiome balance

• improved moisture retention

• skin comfort and softness

• the skin's natural defense against daily environmental stressors.

At LALEH, we believe that true skincare is not limited to hydration or anti-aging. It begins with maintaining a healthy skin environment.

For this reason, we have incorporated postbiotics into our formulations, combining them with selected plant extracts, antioxidants, and modern active ingredients, creating products that respect the skin's physiology and daily support its natural balance.
