Lactobacillus/Rice Ferment Filtrate description

Lactobacillus/Rice ferment filtrate is a fermented, antioxidant rich cosmetic ingredient that offers multiple benefits to skin. This ingredient, alongside many other popular fermented ingredients, like Saccharomyces ferment filtrate, is popular in Asian skin care formulas. It helps firm, protect skin from pro-aging external factors, even skin tone, soothe and condition. Although there’s evidence of this ingredient’s antioxidant benefits, more research is needed to firmly establish rice ferment filtrate’s other claimed benefits. Lactobacillus/Rice ferment filtrate is a natural ingredient that’s obtained through the fermentation and filtration of Oryza sativa (rice). Fermentation makes molecules smaller, allowing them to penetrate skin in an easier manner. According to suppliers, this ingredient’s rich in antioxidants, including ferulic acid, amino acids, saccharides and peptides and is best used in cosmetic formulas at concentrations between 1.0% and 3.0%. It’s also commonly used in hair care applications for its conditioning properties. As a raw material, it’s a liquid that appears colorless-to-pale-yellow.
