ENDOMYCES/SODIUM HYALURONATE FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Endomyces/Sodium Hyaluronate Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient that combines the benefits of fermentation technology with the hydrating properties of hyaluronic acid. This biologically active compound is produced through the fermentation of sodium hyaluronate by Endomyces, a genus of yeast. The fermentation process breaks down the high molecular weight hyaluronic acid into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules.

The resulting filtrate offers enhanced penetration and efficacy compared to traditional hyaluronic acid. It provides intense hydration to the skin, improving moisture retention and elasticity. The fermentation process also generates beneficial metabolites that may offer additional skin-nourishing properties.

This ingredient is known for its ability to form a protective film on the skin's surface, reducing transepidermal water loss and supporting the skin barrier function. It can help smooth fine lines and wrinkles by plumping the skin with moisture. Additionally, the fermented hyaluronic acid may exhibit antioxidant properties, potentially protecting the skin from environmental stressors.

Endomyces/Sodium Hyaluronate Ferment Filtrate is suitable for various skincare formulations, including serums, moisturizers, and masks, making it a versatile ingredient for addressing multiple skin concerns related to hydration and aging.
