September Reset: A Fresh Start for Body and Skin

September always feels like a time to begin again. After a summer of sunshine, travel, and well-earned indulgence, routines begin to return and many of us naturally look for ways to feel balanced. While holidays are wonderful for the spirit, they can leave the body and skin in need of care. Often this is because the gut, which plays such an important role in skin health, has been disrupted by changes in diet, sleep, and lifestyle.

The Gut–Skin Connection

Your gut and your skin are constantly in conversation. When the gut is thriving, nutrients are absorbed more effectively, inflammation is kept in check, and the skin barrier stays strong. After weeks of summer indulgence, however, that balance can shift, showing up on the skin as dullness, blemishes, dryness, or irritation. A September reset is the perfect way to bring both systems back into harmony.

Reintroduce Probiotics

The first step in this reset is to add probiotics back into your daily routine. These beneficial bacteria help to restore balance in the gut and support clear, calm, and radiant skin. Fermented foods like kefir, sauerkraut, and kimchi are excellent natural sources, while targeted supplements can provide more focused benefits.

Skin Youth Biome™ is a powerful choice for those looking to boost hydration and brightness. It combines six skin-friendly bacteria, two new compounds, and vitamin C to support youthful, radiant skin. For those prone to breakouts, Skin Clear Biome™ works from the inside out with four strains of bacteria supported by skin-clarifying zinc, helping to calm irritation and restore clarity.

Feed the Good Bacteria

Probiotics can only thrive when they are properly nourished. This is where prebiotic foods come in. Bananas, oats, garlic, and onions are simple and accessible ingredients that provide the fuel good bacteria need.

For an easy daily option, Skin Integrate 28™ delivers a blend of plant fibres and polyphenols that feed gut microbes, improve diversity, and support regular digestion. This helps fuel all-round skin health and overall wellbeing, making it a perfect addition to your September reset routine.

Focus on Hydration

Water is another essential element of the September reset. After the heat of summer and perhaps a little more alcohol than usual, the body often needs replenishment. Drinking steadily throughout the day supports digestion, circulation, and skin elasticity, helping the complexion regain its natural brightness.

Repair and Protect

Beyond restoring balance, probiotics also help to strengthen the gut lining. This is important because a healthy gut barrier reduces inflammation, which often appears on the skin as redness, irritation, or persistent blemishes. By repairing and protecting the gut, the skin is given the chance to recover and flourish.

Your September Glow

This month is about more than returning to work or school. It is an opportunity to return to yourself, to care for your body from within, and to set the tone for the months ahead. By focusing on probiotics, nourishing your good bacteria, eating whole seasonal foods, staying hydrated, and supporting the gut lining, you will notice a transformation that shows on your skin.

Hyaluronic Acid: What It Does and Why It Matters

Do You Know the Difference Between a Prebiotic and a Probiotic?

Understanding the difference between prebiotics and probiotics is key to supporting both gut and skin health. Probiotics are live bacteria that help maintain balance in the gut, while prebiotics are fibres that feed these beneficial bacteria. Skin Integrate 28 is a daily powder supplement combining 28 active ingredients including plant fibres, polyphenols, amino acids, vitamin C and zinc. It supports gut diversity, reduces bloating, improves digestion and promotes clearer, healthier skin. With consistent use, many report feeling less discomfort and noticing brighter, more even skin tone. It’s a practical and science-backed way to improve wellness from the inside out.
