NOSTOC COMMUNE/HYDRANGEA SERRATA LEAF/SOYBEAN FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

NOSTOC COMMUNE/HYDRANGEA SERRATA LEAF/SOYBEAN FERMENT FILTRATE is an innovative botanical complex derived from the fermentation of three key ingredients: Nostoc commune (a blue-green algae), Hydrangea serrata leaf, and soybeans. This unique combination harnesses the power of fermentation to enhance the bioavailability and efficacy of the active compounds present in each component.

The Nostoc commune extract contributes potent antioxidants and polysaccharides, known for their hydrating and protective properties. Hydrangea serrata leaf extract provides phyllodulcin, a natural sweetener with potential skin-brightening effects. The soybean ferment introduces isoflavones and peptides that support skin elasticity and collagen production.

The fermentation process breaks down these ingredients into smaller, more easily absorbed molecules, potentially increasing their skin penetration and overall effectiveness. This filtrate is rich in amino acids, vitamins, and minerals that nourish and revitalize the skin. It may help improve skin barrier function, reduce the appearance of fine lines, and enhance overall skin tone and texture.

This complex is suitable for various skincare formulations, including serums, moisturizers, and masks, targeting concerns such as aging, hydration, and skin radiance.
