KLUYVEROMYCES/LACTOBACILLUS/ACANTHOPANAX KOREANUM BARK/STEM OIL FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Kluyveromyces/Lactobacillus/Acanthopanax Koreanum Bark/Stem Oil Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of Acanthopanax koreanum (also known as Eleutherococcus sessiliflorus) bark and stem oil using Kluyveromyces and Lactobacillus bacteria. This complex bioactive ingredient harnesses the power of fermentation to enhance the beneficial properties of the plant extract.

The fermentation process breaks down the plant material, increasing the bioavailability of its active compounds and potentially creating new beneficial metabolites. Acanthopanax koreanum, a plant native to Korea, is known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The fermentation by Kluyveromyces and Lactobacillus may further amplify these effects.

This ingredient is believed to offer multiple skincare benefits, including improved hydration, enhanced skin barrier function, and protection against environmental stressors. It may also help to soothe irritated skin and promote a more even skin tone. The filtrate is typically well-tolerated by most skin types and can be incorporated into various skincare formulations, including serums, essences, and moisturizers. Further research is ongoing to fully elucidate the specific mechanisms and extent of its skin-beneficial effects.
