LACTOBACILLUS/SOYBEAN SEED FERMENT EXTRACT FILTRATE

Description

Lactobacillus/Soybean Seed Ferment Extract Filtrate is a bioactive ingredient derived from the fermentation of soybean seeds using Lactobacillus bacteria. This process enhances the bioavailability and potency of the soybean's natural compounds, resulting in a multifunctional skincare ingredient. Rich in isoflavones, peptides, and amino acids, it offers potent antioxidant and anti-aging properties. The fermentation process breaks down complex molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed components, improving skin penetration and efficacy.

This ingredient demonstrates significant moisturizing capabilities, helping to strengthen the skin barrier and reduce transepidermal water loss. It also exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, making it beneficial for sensitive and acne-prone skin types. Studies have shown its potential in promoting collagen synthesis and inhibiting melanin production, contributing to improved skin elasticity and a more even skin tone. Additionally, the probiotic nature of the Lactobacillus fermentation may support the skin's microbiome, enhancing overall skin health and resilience against environmental stressors. Its natural origin and gentle action make it suitable for incorporation into a wide range of skincare formulations, from serums to moisturizers.
