Micrococcus/Sea Salt Ferment Lysate Extract Filtrate

Micrococcus/Sea Salt Ferment Lysate Extract Filtrate is derived from the fermentation of marine microorganisms in a sea salt medium. The fermentation process breaks down cellular material into smaller, bioavailable components—a lysate—which is then filtered to create a refined extract.In skincare formulations, this ingredient functions primarily as a skin conditioner. The fermentation process generates amino acids, peptides, and other compounds that support the skin's structure and natural functions, rather than delivering a single active mechanism.

Fermentation increases the bioavailability of marine compounds by breaking down cell walls and complex molecules into smaller units the skin can more readily absorb and utilise. This creates a more concentrated source of amino acids and peptides.Once applied, these components support the skin's natural moisture retention and help maintain the structural integrity of the epidermis, contributing to a more resilient, conditioned appearance.

This ingredient is typically incorporated into serums, moisturisers, and essences at low to moderate concentrations. It works well in layered skincare routines and may be used morning and evening as part of your regular regimen. As with any new ingredient, introduce it gradually to assess how your skin responds.

Generally well-tolerated by most skin types. Those with sensitivities to fermented ingredients or marine extracts should patch-test first.
