LACTOBACILLUS/PICHIA/SACCHAROMYCOPSIS/RICE BRAN EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Lactobacillus/Pichia/Saccharomycopsis/Rice Bran Extract Ferment Filtrate is a complex skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of rice bran using multiple microorganisms. This bioactive compound harnesses the power of fermentation to enhance the beneficial properties of rice bran extract.

The fermentation process, conducted by Lactobacillus bacteria and Pichia and Saccharomycopsis yeasts, breaks down rice bran components into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules. This results in a higher concentration of antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals compared to unfermented rice bran extract.

Key benefits of this ingredient include improved skin hydration, enhanced barrier function, and increased protection against oxidative stress. The ferment filtrate contains organic acids, enzymes, and peptides that can help balance skin microbiome, promote cell turnover, and reduce inflammation.

Studies have shown that this fermented extract may also have skin-brightening properties, potentially helping to even out skin tone and reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation. Its natural origin and gentle action make it suitable for various skin types, including sensitive skin.
