WHAT MAKES FERMENTED SKINCARE INGREDIENTS SPECIAL? 1. Fermented ingredients have a higher concentration of s and nutrients than non-fermented versions of the same ingredients. The fermentation process itself also produces additional skin-beneficial ingredients, such as amino acids and peptides. Additionally, fermentation helps break down the ingredients into more readily absorbed constituents, so the positive effects the ingredients have to offer are experienced more fully. 2. There’s also early but promising scientific evidence that some lactobacillus ferments help treat and prevent acne and rosacea. The mechanism by which this is achieved is still being explored, but the speculation is that this effect is due to a combination of the protective “shielding” effect lactobacillus provides for skin cells, and the and -fighting properties of lactobacillus.
