Following the rise of probiotics in food and beverages, consumers have become familiar with seeing beneficial live bacteria included into various probiotic skincare products—and now, Murad is introducing a pair of prebiotic products, the 4-in-1 MultiCleanser and the 3-in-1 MultiMist. As brand founder and dermatologist Howard Murad describes, "Prebiotics work by acting as food for the bacteria living on our skin — they are like a peacemaker, bringing balance to the skin's microbiome."
While the Prebiotic 3-in-1 MultiMist from Murad is beneficial for replenishing and priming the skin, the Prebiotic 4-in-1 MultiCleanser shares a range of hydrating, refreshing and moisturizing benefits for all skin types.
As prebiotics work as a precursor to probiotics by feeding the good bacteria, they help to create a healthy base for a solid skincare routine.
