Overview

Saccharomyces ferment filtrate is made by filtering the culture of Saccharomyces yeast in a way that removes the yeast cells and leaves only the products of their metabolism in the solution.

This mixture contains amino acids, nucleic acids (building blocks of DNA), peptides, various minerals, and vitamins. They have moisturizing (humectant) properties because the mixture of amino acids is able to retain water in the skin and the vitamins and minerals support the healthy function of skin cells. The filtrate may also have additional anti-inflammatory properties, as a study suggests.
