About

A fermented ingredient used to help suppress microbes in the formula or on skin, help reduce excess oil, and soften skin. It has a more noticeable irritation or sensitization profile than basic cosmetic ingredients.

This is a fermented botanical ingredient containing a mix of metabolites and fermentation by-products that can slightly change skin feel and conditioning behavior. That keeps it usable in some products, but it is less comfortable than simple moisturizers and should be handled with more caution.
