Antioxidant Skin-Conditioning Moisturizing Anti-inflammatory Collagen Booster Barrier Support Soothing Skin Brightening Anti-aging

Science

Mechanism of Action

This ferment filtrate delivers essential nutrients, antioxidants, and beneficial metabolites to the skin. It works to mitigate inflammation, stimulate the skin's intrinsic collagen synthesis, and enhance elasticity. The fermentation process yields valuable polysaccharides, peptides, amino acids, minerals, and vitamins that nourish and hydrate the skin, strengthening its natural barrier. Furthermore, it may contain heat shock proteins (HSPs) which bolster cellular resilience against environmental stressors, alongside soothing compounds that can alleviate redness and irritation, making it suitable for sensitive skin.
