SACCHAROMYCES/APPLE FRUIT FERMENT EXTRACT FILTRATE.

This ingredient acts as a comprehensive agent for skin health, leveraging its rich composition. It delivers robust antioxidant protection by scavenging free radicals, thereby mitigating oxidative stress that contributes to premature aging and reducing inflammation. The fermentation process enriches it with valuable polysaccharides and peptides, which nourish the skin and significantly contribute to moisture retention. It actively promotes collagen production, leading to improved skin elasticity and texture, and a noticeable reduction in the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Crucially, it stimulates skin regeneration and fortifies the skin's protective barrier; its amino acids (glycine, proline) are key components of Natural Moisturizing Factors (NMFs) and activate aquaporin 3 (AQP3) for enhanced cellular water absorption. Beta-glucans present further strengthen the barrier by stimulating tight junction protein synthesis. Additionally, phenolic compounds (e.g., ferulic acid) directly combat reactive oxygen species, while vitamin B constituents (e.g., pantothenic acid, niacinamide) down-regulate inflammatory cytokines like TNF-alpha and IL-6. This multifaceted action also accelerates cell renewal and boosts cellular growth, supporting overall skin regeneration and enhancing cellular energy for repair.
