Science

Mechanism of Action

This fermented extract works by restoring the skin's natural balance and fortifying its protective functions. It enriches the skin with highly bioavailable active compounds, offering deep nourishment and superficial hydration. The ingredient neutralizes free radicals, provides gentle exfoliation through lactic acid, promotes skin regeneration, and supports the synthesis of collagen and elastin for improved texture and reduced signs of aging. It also harmonizes the skin's microbiome, enhances the penetration of other ingredients, and can inhibit tyrosinase activity to reduce melanin production, leading to a more even and radiant complexion.

Stability

While the optimal pH for the stability of the final extract in a cosmetic formulation is not explicitly defined, the fermentation processes themselves often operate within specific pH ranges (e.g., 6.0-7.0 or 3.5-4.5) to ensure optimal microbial activity. The resulting fermented ingredients typically contribute to more stable, pH-balanced formulations. The extract contains both water-soluble and methanol-soluble components.

Safety

Safety Profile

CIR Status
Insufficient data
Sensitization risk Low

The Cosmetic Ingredient Review (CIR) Expert Panel has noted 'Insufficient Data' for a broader category of yeast-derived ingredients, requesting further sensitization information. However, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, a common yeast in fermentation, is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for food use. Clinically, Saccharomyces/Rice Bran Ferment has been reported to have an excellent safety profile, with studies showing no obvious cytotoxic effects or irritation, and its fermentation process is known to reduce potential allergens.
