Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract

What is Pseudoalteromonas Ferment Extract?

Pseudoalteromonas ferment extract is the Antarctic extremophile survival secret—a biotech ingredient derived from bacteria that thrive in the harsh conditions of Antarctic sea ice by producing extraordinary protective glycoproteins. This specialized extract contains enzymes and proteins that help skin retain moisture under extreme conditions. Think of it as borrowing survival strategies from organisms that thrive in Earth's most challenging environments. It's the skincare equivalent of space-age technology—advanced biological adaptations that seem almost supernatural in their effectiveness. For those experiencing extreme dryness, compromised barriers, or challenging environmental conditions, this ferment offers exceptional moisture retention and protection inspired by nature's most resilient organisms, forming a moisture-preserving shield that prevents dehydration even in harsh climates.
