Probiotics for skin care may seem like a far-fetched concept if you’re new to the world of inner beauty—and while in recent years there has certainly been a more widespread understanding of the benefits of probiotics for gut health and wellbeing, in terms of how probiotics can be utilised for skin care specifically, this knowledge remains a fairly untapped resource. 

In fact, when The Beauty Chef launched in 2009, the whole brand was built on delivering products that utilised the powers of probiotics to nourish the gut in order to promote more radiant, glowing skin—as well as improved wellbeing. And GLOW, our first product, effectively launched a brand new category within the beauty industry: inner beauty. Since then, The Beauty Chef has continued to create the best supplements for glowing skin, speaking to the powers of the gut-skin connection and educating consumers on how by nourishing your belly, you can feel and look healthy, well and vital.

As a brand, we are also always looking to innovate which is why recently, we supercharged our Inner Beauty Boosts to create our most potent and efficacious blends yet. Here’s everything you need to know about our Inner Beauty Boosts, how they’re created and how to decide which boost is best for you and your skin concerns…

How We Create Our Inner Beauty Boosts

First and foremost, what sets The Beauty Chef apart from other brands is our holistic view of health—and how we utilise the powers of probiotics for skin care, immunity and overall wellbeing. We also have established an exclusive bio-fermentation process called Flora Culture™ which involves introducing 12 species of beneficial bacteria into our wholefood ingredients to create a natural, broad-spectrum probiotic to support gut health and glowing skin.

In our state-of-the-art plant in Sydney, we’ve been able to supercharge our formulas even further, getting to know our beneficial bacteria even better so we can tailor-make the fermentation process to suit their needs. The result? Even more potent, bioavailable products with more probiotics and postbiotics.

Another exciting addition to the new formulas is Lactobacillus rhamnosus GUT5Y™, our exclusive probiotic strain that supports digestive wellbeing and skin health. As one of the world’s most widely studied species of probiotics, Lactobacillus rhamnosus comes with a wealth of supporting research.

Ingredients In Our Inner Beauty Supplements

As well as more probiotics thanks to our supercharged process, our inner beauty supplements also contain a plethora of powerful wholefood ingredients, antioxidants, vitamins and minerals that have each been selected for their specific skin and wellbeing benefits. From gotu kola and pomegranate to elderberry, papaya, vitamin C, zinc, queen garnet plum and organic maqui berries—each Boost contains a unique combination of ingredients to deliver results that are truly incomparable.

Which Boost Is Right For You?

Everyone’s skin is different, which is why our range of Boosts have been designed to target your specific skin concerns—for maximum results. For a personalised 3-step inner beauty solution (which includes our Essentials, Boosts and Support products) you can take our Your Remedy quiz here—otherwise, check out our quick guide below to find your best Boost…

When your skin is feeling flat…

Opt for COLLAGEN which contains bio-fermented papaya and grapeseed extracts as well as pomegranate fruit peel extract, gotu kola, organic goji, acai and maqui berries plus even more vitamin C than the original formula to support collagen production and extra zinc for healthy hair and nails.

When your skin is feeling dull…

Designed to brighten the skin from within, ANTIOXIDANT contains papaya and green tea, but has now been supercharged with apple cider vinegar, plus elderberry and selenium to support a healthy immune system. Environmental stressors like air pollution cause free radical damage—a major cause of premature ageing—which vitamin C (another new ingredient in our supercharged formula), helps to protect against. It also has a new not-too-sweet strawberry flavour which has been a hit so far!

When your skin is feeling dehydrated…

If your skin is a little thirsty, HYDRATION is the Boost for you. Perfect for when you’re feeling depleted after exercise or on days you simply don’t drink enough water, this nourishing inner beauty boost replenished lacklustre skin from the inside out. The formula still contains coconut water, but now includes trace minerals and magnesium derived from red seaweed for electrolyte balance. It also includes cucumber water and finger lime, an antioxidant-rich superfruit that’s been a traditional bush food and medicine for Indigenous Australian people for thousands of years, which both contribute to the refreshing new taste. Just don’t forget that there’s a difference between skin that’s dehydrated—lacking water—and dry—lacking oil. OMEGA ELIXIR™ was created for the latter.

When your skin is feeling tired…

And finally, ADAPTOGEN is the newest addition to our Inner Beauty Boost range and has been a real game-changer across the board. Created for tired-looking skin and to help calm ruddy complexions, it contains bio-fermented papaya and adaptogenic herbs ashwagandha and holy basil, which is known by many as ‘liquid yoga’. Activated vitamins B6 and B12 help reduce fatigue and recharge your energy, so if you’re feeling drained or stressed internally, this is the Boost to turn to.
