BACILLUS/DENDROPANAX MORBIFERUS SAP EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Bacillus/Dendropanax Morbiferus Sap Extract Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient that combines biotechnology with traditional herbal extracts. This compound is derived from the fermentation of Dendropanax morbiferus tree sap by Bacillus bacteria, followed by a filtration process to isolate the bioactive components.

The Dendropanax morbiferus tree, native to South Korea, has been used in traditional medicine for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The fermentation process by Bacillus enhances the bioavailability and efficacy of the sap's beneficial compounds. This filtrate is rich in polyphenols, flavonoids, and unique dendropanaxosides, which contribute to its skin-protective qualities.

Key benefits of this ingredient include potent antioxidant activity, helping to neutralize free radicals and combat oxidative stress. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, potentially soothing irritated skin and reducing redness. Additionally, the ferment filtrate may support skin barrier function and promote hydration. Research suggests it could have potential in addressing hyperpigmentation and supporting overall skin health.

When formulating with this ingredient, it is typically used in concentrations of 0.1% to 3% in various skincare products, including serums, moisturizers, and masks.
