GOING BEYOND THE GUT: 2020’S MOST REGENERATIVE SKINCARE TREND SHOWCASED AT FACE AND BODY SOUTHEAST

Columbia Skincare showcases original probiotic topicals at booth # 210

Recent scientific data revealed that numerous health conditions from acne to rosacea and eczema were all linked to unhealthy bacteria and changes in the skin microbiome making probiotic treatments and bacterial interference the biggest trend in skincare now. 

Mainstream knowledge of the microbiome has been secluded to the gut, but current research proves that topical probiotic products can act as a protective shield that has calming and regenerative effects on all skin types.  Topical probiotic products can no longer be denied their valuable role in treating inflammatory conditions and in their ability to balance the microbiome. The skin acts as a barrier to bacteria as well as inflammation – but it needs help as it can be damaged by harmful bacteria, resulting in skin conditions.  Bacterial interference is the addition of good bacteria, such as probiotics, to fight off the bad bacteria that can hurt your skin or make you sick.   

Legacy brand and leading innovator since 1871, Columbia Skincare has a 149-year history in healing skin products. With its team of innovative botanists, scientists and doctors, Columbia Skincare introduced the first probiotic formulation created specifically for topical use with the Columbia Probiotic Concentrate a science-backed blend of probiotics, plant stem cells, and peptides, which intensify and enhance the skin’s renewal process. The concentrate is complimented by Columbia Probiotic Complex, a silky formulation which effectively enhances the most important biological feature in aging skin: it’s ability to renew itself. Columbia Skincare has always been at the forefront of new technologies, as they introduced safe and effective bacteriostatic agents for skincare in the 1880s. Columbia Skincare products are tested in laboratories studying gene expression, and in small human clinical trials using special scanning technology that measures the speed of cell turnover.

Both products support microbiome health while stimulating the natural production of collagen and hyaluronic acid to activate the skin’s natural healing process. 

One of the leading dermatologists, Dr. Whitney Bowe, advocates for Columbia Skincare products as they are the best for “Sensitive, Irritated, and Rosacea-Prone Skin” and recommends it for use after chemical peels, laser treatments, and micro-needling, or to offset the uncomfortable effects of retinoids and exfoliants.

Columbia Skincare will showcase these products at Booth #210 at the Skin Inc. Face and Body Southeast, in the Cobb Galleria Centre, Atlanta, GA, on February 8 – 10, 2020.

The Company will be offering product education and live demonstrations on Saturday and Sunday afternoons during the trade show.
