PSEUDOZYMA EPICOLA/CAMELLIA JAPONICA SEED OIL FERMENT EXTRACT FILTRATE
Fermented camellia seed oil, known as Camellia Japonica Seed Oil Ferment Extract Filtrate, is produced using yeasts of the genus Pseudozyma. The fermentation process creates bioactive compounds that can enhance the oil’s skin-nourishing properties.(1–3) Fermented oils are characterized by their moisturizing, antioxidant, and nourishing properties.(1, 4) Camellia seed oil is also suitable for skin and hair care.(4) An in vivo study also showed that fermented oils can increase the skin’s microbial diversity (alpha diversity) and positively influence the skin microbiome.(1)
