Beauty's new secret weapon.
Why probiotics in beauty products will change your life. 

What's the deal with probiotics in skincare?

Discover a selection of probiotic skincare products. Some stand out as particularly effective. I find the best ones make my skin feel happy—a significant claim amidst the breakouts and irritation from constantly testing new beauty products. Probiotic options have calmed, smoothed, and balanced my skin beautifully. Probiotics proved to be the solution to my healthy beauty routine I've been looking for all my life. That's why we made them into nontoxic makeup. Caley Cosmetics is beyond excited to present Collection of clean color cosmetics with probiotics. 

Aren't you supposed to take them like a vitamin?

Taking probiotics daily is an excellent way to regulate your digestion and boost your immune system. You've heard it before: here it is again. Embrace the message and act on it. Change begins with you. Skin is the body's largest organ. That means, what you put on top of your skin is just as important as what you put in your body. Applying probiotic skincare products topically is like doubling up your defense system. Inside and out, you need the good bacteria to fight the bad. These results are visible. 

Will my products expire?

Like any beauty product, there is an expiration date. Most likely, you'll love your nontoxic makeup so much, it'll be used up before it's time. Probiotics do have a shorter shelf life. It doesn't necessarily mean it will go bad, it just won't be as effective. If a typical natural beauty product has a shelf life of 12 months, the probiotics will do their thing for about 6 months. PSA: if you have makeup over a year old, it needs to be thrown out. 

How do I know how to look for probiotics?

Always check the ingredient list for Lactobacillus ferment. That is the active ingredient for cosmetic formulations. If it's missing on the label, the product probably doesn't contain effective probiotics. 

Supplements are another story. The effectiveness is determined by the type of strain and the CFU count. CFU (colony-forming-unit) is the amount of good bacteria present. It should be above 40 billion, but is irrelevant if the probiotic is not a good strain. Probiotics are really great for a lot of people to take on a daily basis, but are not necessary for everybody. Consult your doctor for more information on probiotic supplements. 

The science

Probiotics are microorganisms that resemble the good bacteria found in our gut. They have very important jobs,  including digestion and combating illness and infections. Good bacteria fight the bad bacteria. The more good bacteria we have in our body, the less susceptible our bodies are to inflammation and disease. Probiotics essentially build our defense system by acting as a protective shield against bad bacteria. They ensure everything runs smoothly. Their support is essential.

How to use probiotic beauty products

Apply all day, every day, anytime, anywhere. For a glossy finish, apply additional layers. For a smooth, natural finish apply a single layer. These natural beauty products with probiotics serve as an excellent primer for lip color. They help the makeup apply smoothly and stay in place.

Probiotic beauty products are for topical use only. Do not ingest probiotic makeup.
