Saccharomyces ferment filtrate is positioned to play multiple roles in beauty products, including functioning a skin-soothing agent and antioxidant. It is also used to boost hydration and moisturising properties of skin and hair care formulations.
Saccharomyces ferment filtrate is a natural ingredient obtained by the fermentation and filtration of saccharomyces (yeasts).
Currently, there isn’t much independent research on this ingredient, but suppliers’ studies note that it is rich in beneficial amino acids, beta-glucan and vitamins. As a general category, yeast-based ingredients are known for contributing skin-softening and antioxidant properties and may also play a role in supporting its microbiome.
Typical usage concentrations suggested by suppliers range from 1–3%.
