Science

This advanced ingredient operates through a dual-action mechanism, combining the strengths of Saccharomyces ferment and hydrolyzed oyster peptides. The Saccharomyces ferment component is instrumental in fortifying the skin's barrier function, significantly boosting moisturization, and visibly improving skin texture. It actively diminishes the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, offering robust anti-pollution and antioxidant defense. Furthermore, it delivers vital nourishment, including beta-glucan, amino acids, and essential vitamins and minerals, acting as a potent humectant and supporting a balanced skin microbiome. Specifically, the yeast fraction combats oxidative stress, elevates skin moisture levels, and enhances microrelief, potentially alleviating neurosensory irritation. Concurrently, the hydrolyzed oyster component provides notable antioxidant and anti-inflammatory benefits. It strengthens skin hydration and barrier integrity by upregulating the expression of key proteins like filaggrin and aquaporin-3, alongside enzymes crucial for hyaluronic acid synthesis. This marine extract is also a rich source of bioactive compounds such as proteins, taurine, organic acids, polyphenols, flavonoids, and zinc, all contributing to its overall antioxidant efficacy.

Stability

For optimal stability of the Saccharomyces ferment filtrate component, it is recommended to maintain a pH range between 3.5 and 6.5 and avoid temperatures exceeding 60°C. Some related Saccharomyces ferments may exhibit effectiveness in a wider pH range for specific applications.


Safety

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Moderate

The CIR Expert Panel has issued an 'Insufficient Data Announcement' for a broad category of yeast-derived ingredients, including Saccharomyces cerevisiae extract, requesting additional dermal sensitization and toxicity data for cosmetic use. While Saccharomyces cerevisiae is recognized as GRAS for food use by the FDA, this does not directly apply to topical cosmetic safety. A single reported instance indicated slight erythema in one volunteer during patch testing with a formulation containing Saccharomyces cerevisiae extract and vitamins, suggesting a potential for sensitization. However, oral clinical trials with oyster hydrolysate have shown no adverse effects.

Our Assessment

Insufficient Data

This innovative ferment extract shows promising multifunctional benefits for skin health and appearance, but comprehensive topical safety data from independent cosmetic reviews are currently insufficient for a definitive assessment.
