Science

This ferment filtrate influences skin health through several precise pathways. It functions to rebalance the skin's natural pH and fosters a healthy skin microbiome, both critical for maintaining optimal barrier integrity and resilience. The sophisticated fermentation process yields a rich spectrum of beneficial compounds, including amino acids, peptides, organic acids (such as lactic acid), enzymes, and antioxidants. These components work synergistically to facilitate cellular repair, boost hydration, and promote a smoother skin texture through gentle exfoliation. It actively contributes to skin renewal, strengthens the skin barrier, and offers robust protection against oxidative stress and environmental damage via its antioxidant capabilities. Furthermore, it demonstrably enhances skin moisture levels and holds the potential to contribute to a more even skin tone by inhibiting tyrosinase activity. Its inherent antimicrobial properties, partly attributed to the production of bacteriocins, also help create an unfavorable environment for detrimental microorganisms on the skin surface.

The CIR Expert Panel has concluded that ingredients within the Lactobacillus ferment group, including this filtrate, are safe for cosmetic application. The highest reported maximum concentration of use for this group is up to 5.6% in face and neck products. Rigorous testing has shown no genotoxicity in Ames assays and a non-irritating profile at 100% in EpiOcular™ assays. Regulatory bodies such as the European Union and the FDA broadly approve its cosmetic use. Formulators are advised to consider its potential skin brightening effect due to tyrosinase inhibition to avoid unintended depigmentation. While allergic reactions are rare, a precautionary patch test is recommended for individuals with highly sensitive skin.
