ASPERGILLUS/CENTELLA ASIATICA LEAF/STEM EXTRACT/SWIFTLET NEST EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Aspergillus/Centella Asiatica Leaf/Stem Extract/Swiftlet Nest Extract Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient combining the benefits of traditional Asian botanicals with advanced fermentation technology. This complex formulation harnesses the power of Aspergillus fermentation to enhance the bioavailability and efficacy of its key components.

Centella Asiatica, also known as Gotu Kola, is renowned for its wound-healing and anti-inflammatory properties. It contains asiaticoside, madecassoside, and asiatic acid, which promote collagen synthesis and improve skin elasticity. The leaf and stem extracts provide antioxidant protection and support skin barrier function.

Swiftlet nest extract, derived from edible bird's nests, is rich in glycoproteins, particularly sialic acid. This compound contributes to moisture retention, cellular regeneration, and overall skin health. The fermentation process by Aspergillus fungi breaks down these complex molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed peptides and amino acids.

The resulting filtrate offers multi-faceted benefits, including improved hydration, enhanced skin repair, and increased production of hyaluronic acid. It may also help reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, promote a more even skin tone, and provide a protective barrier against environmental stressors.
