SACCHAROMYCES/JUNIPERUS COMMUNIS FRUIT WATER FERMENT FILTRATE.

Valuable / ANTIMICROBIAL, ANTIOXIDANT, SKIN PROTECTING

SACCHAROMYCES/JUNIPERUS COMMUNIS FRUIT WATER FERMENT FILTRATE is a biotechnologically derived ingredient, produced by fermenting juniper fruit water with Saccharomyces yeast. This process creates a filtrate rich in essential nutrients and antioxidants, combined with the purifying benefits of juniper, to enhance overall skin health.

Summary

Antimicrobial Antioxidant Skin Protecting Humectant Anti-inflammatory Collagen Boosting Moisturizing Astringent Purifying Barrier Support

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ingredient functions through a synergistic action, combining the properties of fermented yeast and the botanical extract. The Saccharomyces ferment filtrate component delivers essential nutrients, powerful antioxidants, and humectant qualities. These work to mitigate inflammation, stimulate collagen production, and noticeably improve skin elasticity and texture, thereby diminishing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. It also fortifies the skin's natural barrier, provides deep hydration, and supports a balanced skin microbiome. Concurrently, the Juniperus Communis fruit water component provides astringent and purifying benefits, which can help regulate skin oiliness and promote thorough cleansing. Collectively, it acts as an antimicrobial, antioxidant, and skin-protecting agent.

Key findings

  1. 01 Studies on general Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate indicate effective usage concentrations of 0.1% to 5% in leave-on products. These concentrations are recommended for improving overall skin health, providing nutrients and antioxidants, reducing inflammation, promoting collagen synthesis, and refining skin elasticity and texture.
  2. 02 For rinse-off product applications, general Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate is recommended at concentrations up to 10%.
  3. 03 Suppliers typically suggest usage concentrations for Saccharomyces Ferment Filtrate within the 1% to 3% range for optimal benefits in formulations.

Safety

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Not reviewed (specific ingredient)
Sensitization risk Unknown

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) has not conducted a specific safety assessment for SACCHAROMYCES/JUNIPERUS COMMUNIS FRUIT WATER FERMENT FILTRATE. It is important to distinguish this ingredient from Juniperus Communis Extract, for which CIR found 'insufficient data to support the safety' due to fertility concerns in animal studies, though clinical tests of juniper oils showed no irritation or sensitization. For the broader category of 'Yeast-Derived Ingredients,' CIR reports have frequently indicated 'insufficient data to make a determination of safety' for various specific components. While Saccharomyces cerevisiae (the yeast itself) is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use up to 5%, this status does not directly extend to this cosmetic ingredient. Due to the lack of specific review for this exact ferment filtrate and some existing data gaps, the safety profile regarding pregnancy is not definitively established.
