SACCHAROMYCES/DEFATTED RICE BRAN FERMENT

Description

Saccharomyces/Defatted Rice Bran Ferment is an innovative skincare ingredient derived from the fermentation of defatted rice bran using Saccharomyces yeast. This process enhances the bioavailability of the rice bran's beneficial compounds, creating a potent extract rich in antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals.

The fermentation process breaks down complex molecules into smaller, more easily absorbed components. This results in a higher concentration of ferulic acid, gamma-oryzanol, and phytic acid, known for their antioxidant and anti-aging properties. These compounds help protect the skin from free radical damage and environmental stressors.

Saccharomyces/Defatted Rice Bran Ferment also contains amino acids and peptides that support skin barrier function and promote hydration. Its gentle exfoliating properties aid in cell turnover, leading to improved skin texture and tone. Additionally, this ingredient has shown potential in reducing hyperpigmentation and enhancing overall skin brightness.

The ferment's lightweight nature makes it suitable for various skincare formulations, including serums, essences, and moisturizers. It is well-tolerated by most skin types and can be particularly beneficial for those seeking natural, yet effective anti-aging and skin-brightening solutions.
