LACTOBACILLUS/SOYBEAN EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Lactobacillus/Soybean Extract Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of soybean extract using Lactobacillus bacteria. This process enhances the bioavailability of beneficial compounds found in soybeans, making them more easily absorbed by the skin.

The ingredient is rich in isoflavones, particularly genistein and daidzein, which are known for their antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. These compounds help protect the skin from oxidative stress and environmental damage. Additionally, the fermentation process produces lactic acid, which gently exfoliates the skin and promotes cell turnover.

Lactobacillus/Soybean Extract Ferment Filtrate has been shown to improve skin hydration by enhancing the skin's natural moisture barrier. It also helps to balance the skin's microbiome, potentially reducing acne-causing bacteria and supporting overall skin health.

Studies suggest that this ingredient may have skin-brightening effects, helping to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone. Its anti-aging properties include the stimulation of collagen production, which can help improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
