Human skin is a complex ecosystem colonised by bacteria, fungi and viruses collectively known as the skin microbiome. It plays crucial roles in skin health. Several external factors negatively affect the skin microbiome balance, especially cleansing and daily skin care products or sanitizers. The necessity to use microbiomefriendly raw materials or the addition of pre- or/and probiotic ingredients to cosmetics formulations becomes desirable. The pre- and probiotics have been successfully used for years as ingredients in dietary supplements. In the case of cosmetics, these terms are used more widely. In this work, the current state of knowledge on the skin microbiome and pre-/probiotic raw materials used in cosmetic formulations is presented.
