(BIFIDOBACTERIUM/POLYSORBATE 80 FERMENT + LACTOBACILLUS/POLYSORBATE 80 FERMENT) LYSATE FILTRATE

Description

Bifidobacterium/Polysorbate 80 Ferment + Lactobacillus/Polysorbate 80 Ferment Lysate Filtrate is an innovative probiotic-derived skincare ingredient that harnesses the power of beneficial bacteria. This complex combines fermented extracts from two key probiotic strains, Bifidobacterium and Lactobacillus, with Polysorbate 80 as a stabilizing agent.

The fermentation process breaks down the bacteria, creating a lysate rich in bioactive compounds such as peptides, enzymes, and organic acids. These components work synergistically to support skin health and function. The filtrate is known to enhance the skin's natural barrier function, improve hydration, and promote a balanced microbiome on the skin's surface.

Key benefits include reducing inflammation, soothing sensitive skin, and potentially mitigating the effects of environmental stressors. Research suggests that this ingredient may also help in regulating sebum production and improving overall skin texture. Its ability to support the skin's ecosystem makes it particularly valuable in formulations targeting acne-prone, sensitive, or compromised skin.

When incorporated into skincare products, this ferment lysate filtrate is typically used at concentrations between 1-5% for optimal efficacy. It is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic formulations and can enhance the performance of other active ingredients.
