Inulin is a prebiotic that supports the skin’s microbiome and skin-friendly bacteria which keep everything balanced. It offers moisturising properties, and is a natural humectant and conditioner.
Inulin is also a form of indigestible dietary fiber that makes one feel fuller for longer, helping control appetite and maintaining blood sugar levels. It is widely used in food as a sweetener and source of soluble fiber.
We love inulin primarily because it allows for a prebiotic in skincare! Using pre- and probiotics in skincare products is very on trend in the skincare industry currently.

Ordered online for collection. Product is as described, good quality. Collection was easy and friendly. Will order again :-)
Inulin is an excellent probiotic and the price is half of the same products in the shops. The quality is excellent and it works perfect to maintain a healthy gut. Service is great.
Satisfied with the product
I love the taste (like candy floss), and it works wonders to my gut. Well priced! Will definitely order again.
I love this product, it makes me feel good within a day. I sleep better now, it tastes good and dissolves easily. I just mix with water or add it on my oats.
