When it comes to skincare, we all want products that deliver results. That’s why ingredients like niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C are mainstays in our routines.
But there’s one ingredient that often goes unnoticed, despite its numerous benefits for the skin. Enter Galactomyces, the hidden gem in our Beauté Library skincare line.
What is Galactomyces?
Galactomyces ferment filtrate (GFF) is a yeast-derived ingredient that's slowly gaining popularity in the skincare world. It's rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other beneficial compounds that work wonders for the skin. When used topically, it can brighten skin tone, minimize pores and wrinkles, reduce inflammation, and promote a more elastic complexion. It’s basically like an all-in-one solution to any skin concerns!
The History of Galactomyces
The discovery of Galactomyces was a happy accident. Aged Japanese sake brewers were found to have incredibly soft and youthful hands, despite their aged and wrinkled faces. Researchers discovered that the secret lay in the yeast they were constantly in contact with during the sake fermentation process. After years of research, Galactomyces ferment filtrate has become a major player in Korean and Japanese skincare brands.
Properties of Galactomyces
Galactomyces is a skincare superstar, loved for being non-comedogenic (a fancy way of saying it won't clog your pores). This makes it perfect for almost all skin types, even oily and acne-prone ones. For the detail-oriented divas out there, it boasts a score of "1" on the EWG Scale, meaning it's super low on the allergy and toxicity front. So, if your skin is as sensitive as a princess, Galactomyces is your royal treatment!
