METSCHNIKOWIA/PANAX GINSENG LEAF/STEM FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

METSCHNIKOWIA/PANAX GINSENG LEAF/STEM FERMENT FILTRATE is an innovative skincare ingredient that combines the power of fermentation with the traditional benefits of ginseng. This filtrate is derived from the fermentation of Panax ginseng leaf and stem extracts using Metschnikowia, a genus of yeast known for its bioactive properties. The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability and efficacy of ginseng's active compounds, including ginsenosides and polysaccharides.

This ingredient offers multiple benefits for skin health and appearance. It possesses potent antioxidant properties, helping to neutralize free radicals and protect the skin from oxidative stress. The ferment filtrate also demonstrates anti-inflammatory effects, potentially reducing redness and irritation. It may contribute to improved skin hydration by supporting the skin's natural moisture barrier.

Furthermore, this ingredient has shown potential in promoting collagen synthesis and enhancing skin elasticity, which can lead to a more youthful appearance. Its adaptogenic properties may help the skin better respond to environmental stressors. The fermentation process also yields metabolites that can support the skin's microbiome, contributing to overall skin health. This multifunctional ingredient is suitable for various skincare formulations, including serums, moisturizers, and anti-aging products.
