Ten Major Causes of Stressed Skin: An Imbalanced Skin Microbiome. Balancing Over Millions of Bacteria on the Face. Research indicates that the skin, like the intestinal tract, harbors millions of beneficial and harmful bacteria (the microbiome). The skin’s microbiome consists of both beneficial bacteria (such as Bifidobacteria, Lactobacilli, and yeasts) and harmful bacteria (such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, Propionibacterium acnes, and mold). When harmful bacteria outnumber beneficial ones, the skin’s protective barrier is compromised, leading to skin problems such as excessive dryness, sensitivity, redness, acne, eczema, and allergies. Aging, combined with air pollution, stressful lifestyles, irregular sleep patterns, and excessive cleansing, can cause a decrease in beneficial bacteria and an increase in harmful ones, creating an imbalance in the skin’s microbiome. Maintaining a diverse skin microbiome and achieving a balance between beneficial and harmful bacteria can help protect against sensitivity and irritation, ultimately improving skin problems. This represents a new concept in the skincare industry.
