LACTOBACILLUS/EICHHORNIA CRASSIPES EXTRACT FERMENT LYSATE EXTRACT

Description

Lactobacillus/Eichhornia Crassipes Extract Ferment Lysate Extract is an innovative skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of water hyacinth (Eichhornia crassipes) by Lactobacillus bacteria. This process creates a bioactive compound rich in amino acids, peptides, and polysaccharides. The extract is known for its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it valuable in protecting skin from environmental stressors and reducing signs of aging.

The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability of the water hyacinth's beneficial compounds, allowing for better skin penetration and efficacy. This ingredient has been shown to improve skin hydration, boost collagen production, and support the skin's natural barrier function. It may also help in regulating sebum production, making it suitable for various skin types, including oily and acne-prone skin.

Clinical studies have demonstrated its ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, improve skin elasticity, and promote a more even skin tone. The extract is generally well-tolerated and can be incorporated into various skincare formulations, including serums, creams, and masks. Its natural origin and sustainable sourcing make it an attractive option for eco-conscious skincare brands.
