LACTOBACILLUS/DEFATTED SOYBEAN SEED EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Lactobacillus/Defatted Soybean Seed Extract Ferment Filtrate is a cutting-edge skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of defatted soybean seeds by Lactobacillus bacteria. This process enhances the bioavailability of beneficial compounds, making them more easily absorbed by the skin. The filtrate is rich in isoflavones, particularly genistein and daidzein, which are known for their potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties.

This ingredient offers multiple benefits for skin health and appearance. It helps to improve skin barrier function, reducing transepidermal water loss and increasing hydration levels. The fermentation process also yields peptides and amino acids that can stimulate collagen production, potentially improving skin elasticity and reducing the appearance of fine lines. Additionally, the filtrate exhibits skin-brightening effects by inhibiting melanin production and promoting a more even skin tone.

Studies have shown that this ingredient may help in soothing sensitive skin and reducing redness associated with various skin conditions. Its gentle nature makes it suitable for incorporation into a wide range of skincare formulations, from serums to moisturizers, catering to different skin types and concerns.
