At Green People, we’re always on the lookout for ingredients with properties proven to support skin barrier health. That’s why we’re so excited by the fermented skin care trend.
Discover how to use fermented beauty in your skin care routine as we reveal why we use Ferment ingredients in our natural and organic skin care products.
What is fermented skin care?
In the UK, fermented skin care is a growing beauty trend. A futuristic example of science and nature in balance, this is skin care that use ingredients fermented by microorganisms.
The science of fermented skin care is pretty special, and the fermentation process essentially makes it easier for beauty ingredients to sink into the skin by making their molecular size smaller.[1]
Is fermented skin care good for sensitive skin?
Oh, yes! As experts in sensitive skin, we love to use ingredients that support your skin barrier and Bacillus Ferment is a great example of this!
A clinically proven Postbiotic obtained from 'Mars on Earth' (a Spanish river which is known for its extreme conditions), Bacillus Ferment has been shown to reinforce the skin barrier by maintaining the skin‘s hydrostatic (hydration) levels.
Why is this important? Sensitive skin is easily irritated and damaged. This means it needs all the help it can get to lock in the moisture it needs to stay soft, calm, and comfortable.
Bacillus Ferment skin benefits explained
A hydra-station for your skin, this remarkable ability to increase moisturisation not only protects the skin’s keratinocytes from dehydration, it also reinforces and strengthens the skin barrier.
And that’s not the only way that Bacillus Ferment can benefit skin. By locking in plenty of skin-plumping hydration, this elasticity-boosting fermented skin care ingredient is also ideal for calming redness and smoothing out those pesky fine lines which look deeper when your skin is dry.
A hero ingredient for menopausal skin that has become dry and more easily irritated, Bacillus Ferment has really impressed our skin care scientists. But don’t just take out word for it. Take a look at the scientific evidence:
In-vitro study results have shown this Bacillus Ferment to:
- Increase moisturisation
- Enhanced firmness and elasticity
- Support skin barrier reinforcement
- Reduce redness after 8 hours
- Increase radiance in 7 days
Charlotte Vøhtz, founder of Green People, says:
“Bacillus Ferment may sound alien but it’s a brilliant active for bringing stressed skin back down to earth. It not only protects outer skin cells, but also maintains moisture levels in the skin by reinforcing the skin barrier.”
