SACCHAROMYCES/IPOMOEA BATATAS FERMENT EXTRACT.

Insufficient Data / SKIN CONDITIONING

Saccharomyces/Ipomoea Batatas Ferment Extract is a bio-engineered ingredient derived from the fermentation of sweet potato by Saccharomyces yeast. This process is designed to enhance the bioavailability of beneficial compounds and potentially increase the concentration of potent phytochemicals, offering diverse skin benefits. It is recognized for its broad potential in skin conditioning and revitalization.

Science

The mechanism involves the biotransformation of Ipomoea batatas (sweet potato) by Saccharomyces microorganisms. This fermentation breaks down complex molecules into smaller, more bioavailable components, and amplifies the concentration of beneficial phytochemicals such as flavonoids, tannins, and phenols. This enhanced profile contributes to improved antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and potentially anti-melanogenic activities. The Saccharomyces component further delivers essential nutrients, supports collagen synthesis, improves elasticity, and provides moisturizing and soothing effects, thereby enhancing overall skin health and penetration of actives.

The specific ingredient 'SACCHAROMYCES/IPOMOEA BATATAS FERMENT EXTRACT' has not undergone direct review by CIR or SCCS. However, its Saccharomyces cerevisiae component is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use up to 5%, and related 'Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate' is considered safe for cosmetic applications across all skin types. A study noted potential hepatotoxicity with fermented mold-damaged sweet potatoes, but this concern is not relevant for cosmetic ingredients derived from healthy raw materials.
