BACILLUS/MONASCUS/BORAGO OFFICINALIS SEED/SOYBEAN FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

BACILLUS/MONASCUS/BORAGO OFFICINALIS SEED/SOYBEAN FERMENT FILTRATE is an innovative skincare ingredient that harnesses the power of fermentation and botanical extracts. This complex blend combines the fermentation products of Bacillus and Monascus bacteria with Borago officinalis (borage) seed and soybean extracts. The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability and efficacy of the natural compounds present in these botanical ingredients.

This filtrate is rich in antioxidants, amino acids, and beneficial enzymes that contribute to skin health and appearance. The Bacillus fermentation introduces probiotics that may help balance the skin's microbiome, while Monascus fermentation is known for producing natural pigments and bioactive compounds. Borage seed extract provides gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), an essential fatty acid that supports skin barrier function and hydration. Soybean ferment contributes isoflavones and peptides that can help improve skin elasticity and firmness.

The combined action of these fermented ingredients may offer anti-aging benefits, enhance skin hydration, and provide antioxidant protection against environmental stressors. This filtrate is suitable for various skincare formulations, including serums, moisturizers, and masks, targeting concerns such as dryness, fine lines, and uneven skin tone.
