Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate

What is Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate?

Galactomyces ferment filtrate is the K-beauty superstar derived from sake brewing—a nutrient-rich liquid containing the filtered byproducts of yeast fermentation. This pioneering ferment gained fame when sake brewers' remarkably youthful hands were noticed despite their age. Think of it as a microscopic army of beneficial molecules created through ancient preservation techniques, delivering vitamins, amino acids, and enzymes in their most bioavailable form. It's the skincare equivalent of probiotic-rich foods for your digestive system—introducing beneficial compounds that strengthen, balance, and optimize your skin's ecosystem. For those seeking brighter, more resilient skin with improved texture and tone, galactomyces offers comprehensive skin enhancement through improved cellular communication and turnover, working particularly well as a first treatment step after cleansing to optimize the performance of everything applied afterward.
