The microbiome makes up the diverse ecosystem of micro-organisms, that play a crucial role in maintaining healthy skin, as it protects it from harmful bacteria and helps to regulate the pH balance. Here are three tips to keep your microbiome balanced and healthy:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Easy on the exfoliation: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes, exfoliation is important and has earned its place in your skincare routine, but be careful of overdoing it. Done correctly, exfoliation helps to remove dead skin cells and unclog pores\u2026but over-exfoliating can damage the skin&#8217;s barrier and disrupt the skin&#8217;s microbiome. To avoid this, limit your use of physical exfoliants to once or twice a week and opt for chemical exfoliants that are gentle on the skin.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Moisturise \u2026 often: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">When the skin is dry, it is more susceptible to damage and irritation, which can disrupt the skin&#8217;s microbiome. To protect your skin&#8217;s microbiome, moisturise regularly with a hydrating moisturiser. We like <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.clere.co.za\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Clere\u2019s <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Repairing range of body cr\u00e8mes and lotions, that combines tissue oil, Glycerine and Vitamins E &amp; A. Plus, the cr\u00e8mes and lotions provide 48 hours of moisture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b><\/b><b>Stay safe in the sun: <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Exposure to UV rays can damage the skin&#8217;s microbiome. Wear a broad-spectrum sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 to protect your skin from the sun&#8217;s harmful rays.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microbiome &#8211; it\u2019s the big buzzword in the health and beauty industry\u2026but what is all the hype about?
