Science
Mechanism of Action
This ingredient is a 'Fermentoil' derived from the precise fermentation of Camellia Sinensis Seed Oil, Glucose, Malt Extract, Soybean Flour, and Yeast Extract using Pseudozyma epicola bacteria. This enzymatic process breaks down oil components, yielding a richer composition of free fatty acids and significantly elevated antioxidant values. The resulting fermentoil exhibits superior cosmetic elegance, absorbs faster without a greasy residue, and possesses enhanced emulsifying capabilities. On a cellular level, it acts as a humectant to attract moisture and a skin conditioning agent, while its antioxidant properties neutralize free radicals and support collagen synthesis, contributing to accelerated cell renewal and natural skin regeneration.

Safety
Safety Profile
This ingredient is broadly rated as safe for cosmetic use by the Environmental Working Group (EWG) and has 'No penalty' across all categories by INCI Beauty. SkinSAFE confirms it as 'Irritant Free' and suitable for sensitive skin. While a general CIR assessment for Camellia Sinensis-derived ingredients previously noted insufficient data for non-leaf/stem derivatives, this specific ferment filtrate has not been explicitly reviewed by CIR or SCCS. Any general risk notes pertaining to potential irritation during raw material handling are typically not reflective of its low irritancy risk within formulated cosmetic products.
