BACILLUS/BRASSICA NAPUS EXTRACT/GLYCERIN FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Bacillus/Brassica Napus Extract/Glycerin Ferment Filtrate is a novel skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of Brassica napus (rapeseed) extract by Bacillus bacteria in a glycerin-rich environment. This complex blend harnesses the power of fermentation to enhance the bioavailability and efficacy of the active compounds present in rapeseed extract.

The fermentation process breaks down large molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed components, while simultaneously producing beneficial metabolites. This filtrate is rich in antioxidants, peptides, and amino acids, which contribute to its skin-protective and anti-aging properties. It has been shown to improve skin hydration, increase elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

The glycerin component acts as a humectant, attracting and retaining moisture in the skin. Additionally, the Bacillus fermentation byproducts may offer probiotic benefits, supporting the skin's microbiome and enhancing its natural defense mechanisms.

This ingredient is particularly suitable for formulations targeting mature skin, dehydrated complexions, and those seeking to improve overall skin texture and tone. Its gentle nature makes it appropriate for most skin types, including sensitive skin.
