Our skin is a complex ecosystem, inhabited by bacteria, archaea, fungi and viruses. These microbes—often known as the skin microbiota—are fundamental to skin physiology. The skin microbiota is impacted by a number of factors, including environmental influences, unsuitable Personal Care products and our health/diet.
