The power behind topical live probiotics is what this industry needs for long-term wellness
– Michael Tompkins
For decades, spas have been divided into various categories. Most operate strictly in their areas of expertise, however, all spas now seem to be shifting towards one common goal - wellness.

The Global Wellness Institute defines wellness as the “active pursuit of activities, choices and lifestyles that lead to a state of holistic health”. LaFlore® Live Probiotic Skincare provides spas with an innovative solution for skin wellness by supporting the skin microbiome with topical live probiotics.

Topical live probiotics help the skin microbiome produce the postbiotic metabolites the skin needs to mend and thrive naturally.

These postbiotics include:
• AHAs, PHAs and BHAs.
• Vitamins like retinol.
• Antimicrobial peptides.
• Amino acids.
• Micronutrients.
• Antioxidants.
• Anti-inflammatory substances.
• Ceramides and more.

The ingenuity behind topical LIVE probiotics is that they work with the individual’s unique skin microbiome to create exactly what it needs rather than making an educated guess, applying products, and hoping the desired results are achieved. Restoring overall skin health is obviously vastly different from the historical protocols of treating skin by type or concern.

Spa industry visionary and LaFlore board advisor, Michael Tompkins, believes that combining health and beauty is exactly where the industry needs to head.

“Culturally we’re evolving into a new landscape of wellness and live probiotic skincare is going to help us get there,” he said, “for so many years, we pushed for antibacterial everything, we now know better.

“The power behind topical live probiotics is what this industry needs for long-term wellness.”
