PSEUDOZYMA EPICOLA/OLIVE FRUIT OIL FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Pseudozyma Epicola/Olive Fruit Oil Ferment Filtrate is an innovative skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of olive fruit oil by the yeast Pseudozyma epicola. This unique biotech ingredient combines the benefits of olive oil with the metabolic byproducts of fermentation, resulting in a potent complex of bioactive compounds.

The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability of olive oil's natural antioxidants, including polyphenols and vitamin E, while introducing new beneficial molecules such as peptides and enzymes. These components work synergistically to provide multiple skin benefits, including improved hydration, enhanced barrier function, and protection against oxidative stress.

Studies have shown that this ferment filtrate exhibits anti-inflammatory properties, helping to soothe irritated skin and reduce redness. It also demonstrates potential in supporting collagen production and improving skin elasticity. The ingredient's light, non-greasy texture makes it suitable for various skincare formulations, from serums to moisturizers.

Pseudozyma Epicola/Olive Fruit Oil Ferment Filtrate is particularly beneficial for addressing signs of aging, environmental damage, and skin sensitivity. Its natural origin and sustainable production process make it an attractive option for eco-conscious skincare brands.
