CANDIDA TSUKUBAENSIS/ARGANIA SPINOSA KERNEL OIL/OLIVE FRUIT OIL/ (ADANSONIA DIGITATA/CAMELLIA SINENSIS/ORBIGNYA OLEIFERA/CALOPHYLLUM INOPHYLLUM) SEED OIL/ PHASEOLUS RADIATUS SEED EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE.

Valuable / EMULSION STABILISING, HAIR CONDITIONING, SKIN CONDITIONING, SKIN PROTECTING

A high-precision biotechnological complex that utilizes yeast fermentation to transform a synergistic blend of Argan, Olive, Baobab, Green Tea, Babassu, and Tamanu oils. This process converts traditional triglycerides into smaller, bioavailable fatty acids while generating natural biosurfactants for superior skin integration.

Biomimetic Emollient Antioxidant Protection Barrier Restorative Bio-emulsifier Deep-penetrating Skin Conditioner

Science

Mechanism of Action

The yeast Candida tsukubaensis secretes extracellular lipases that enzymatically break down heavy oil triglycerides into free fatty acids and glycerol. Simultaneously, it produces mannosylerythritol lipids (MELs)—intelligent biosurfactants that increase the oil's affinity for the skin's lipid bilayer, facilitating deeper penetration and reinforcing the stratum corneum without the greasy residue associated with unfermented oils.

Key findings

  1. 01 Observed a 22% decrease in Trans-Epidermal Water Loss (TEWL) over 28 days compared to standard oil emulsions.
  2. 02 Demonstrated significantly elevated DPPH radical scavenging activity and enhanced transdermal absorption versus conventional plant oils.
