PSEUDOZYMA EPICOLA/CAMELLIA JAPONICA SEED OIL FERMENT EXTRACT FILTRATE
Fermented camellia seed oil, known as Camellia Japonica Seed Oil Ferment Extract Filtrate, is obtained using yeast of the genus Pseudozyma. Fermentation produces bioactive components that can enhance the skin-care properties of the oil.(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 microbial diversity of the skin (alpha diversity) and have a positive effect on the skin microbiome. (1)
