LACTOBACILLUS/AGARICUS BLAZEI EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE.

LACTOBACILLUS/AGARICUS BLAZEI EXTRACT FERMENT FILTRATE functions as a multi-modal skin enhancer. It provides robust antioxidant defense, shielding the skin from oxidative damage caused by pollutants, toxins, and UV radiation, thereby mitigating visible signs of aging. The ingredient is believed to stimulate collagen synthesis by activating fibroblasts, which can visibly improve skin firmness and elasticity, diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Furthermore, it significantly boosts skin hydration and moisture retention. Its inherent anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial characteristics help calm irritated skin and manage acne conditions. It may also contribute to a brighter complexion by influencing melanin production. The Lactobacillus fermentation process yields an array of beneficial byproducts, including metabolites, enzymes, and peptides, which primarily function as skin-conditioning, humectant, and protective agents. The Agaricus blazei component is recognized for its ability to modulate innate immunity and reduce inflammation, potentially through specific interactions with Toll-like receptors (TLR) present on skin endothelial cells.
