Science

Mechanism of Action

The efficacy of this ingredient stems from the fermentation of Camellia Japonica Seed Oil by Pseudozyma epicola bacteria. This bio-process enzymatically breaks down oil components, significantly increasing free fatty acid content and enhancing antioxidant levels compared to unfermented oils. Concurrently, the fermentation produces beneficial polysaccharides and various lipids. This refined composition results in a cosmetically elegant oil that penetrates the skin more rapidly, offers a notably less greasy sensation, and exhibits superior emulsification properties. It actively moisturizes, provides antioxidant defense, and supports skin health through antiseptic, fungicidal, and bactericidal attributes, while also fortifying the skin's hydrolipid barrier and aiding in the restoration of a balanced skin microbiome.
