About
A fermented yeast extract enriched with manganese ions, used in cosmetics for its antioxidant and skin-conditioning properties.
Saccharomyces/Manganese Ferment is produced by fermenting Saccharomyces yeast in the presence of manganese ions, creating a bio-enriched ingredient. Manganese is an essential trace element but can be sensitising at high concentrations; EU cosmetic regulation requires careful formulation control. Restricted under Annex II/296 of the EU Cosmetics Regulation.
