A topical composition comprising an effective amount of a prebiotic capable of nourishing and encouraging skin microorganisms such as S. epidermidis to colonize the skin and supplant acne-causing bacteria such as P. acnes. Additional components can be used by S. epidermidis to create short chain fatty acids that inhibit growth of P. acnes. The preferred prebiotics are Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, and Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower Extract. PEG-12 is used by S. epidermidis to create short chain fatty acids that inhibit P. acnes. The composition is highly effective in a method of treating acne.
