ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS/AMYLASE/GLUCOSE/PAPAYA FRUIT/PROTEASE FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

ENTEROCOCCUS FAECALIS/AMYLASE/GLUCOSE/PAPAYA FRUIT/PROTEASE FERMENT FILTRATE is a complex skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation process of multiple components. This bioactive blend combines the probiotic properties of Enterococcus faecalis bacteria with enzymatic elements and fruit extracts. The amylase and protease enzymes work synergistically to break down proteins and starches, potentially aiding in gentle exfoliation and skin renewal. Glucose serves as a fermentation substrate and humectant, while papaya fruit contributes additional enzymes and antioxidants. The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability of active compounds and may produce beneficial postbiotics. This ingredient is believed to support the skin's microbiome, promote cellular turnover, and improve overall skin texture and hydration. It may also possess anti-inflammatory and soothing properties, making it suitable for sensitive skin types. The filtrate form ensures that only the soluble, bioactive components are present in the final product. While research on this specific combination is ongoing, individual components have shown promise in various skincare applications. As with any complex ingredient, patch testing is recommended to ensure compatibility with individual skin types.
