Saccharomyces/rosa damascena flower water ferment filtrate is a filtered acqueous compound obtained from the dried flowers of Rosa damascena after fermentation with the Saccharomyces fungus.
What it is used for and where
Rosa damascena is a small plant belonging to the Rosaceae family that produces light pink flowers. Phytochemical analysis reveals an abundant content of vitamin C, triterpenoic acids (oleanoic, ursolic, betulinic), unsaturated fatty acids (oleic, linoleic and alpha-linoleic), polyphenols, carotenoids and tannins. Most of these components have demonstrated antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity.
In particular, rosehips are rich in vitamins, minerals, fatty acids. Citronellol and geraniol perform best in the petals.
Cosmetics
Skin conditioning agent - Emollient. Emollients have the characteristic of enhancing the skin barrier through a source of exogenous lipids that adhere to the skin, improving barrier properties by filling gaps in intercorneocyte clusters to improve hydration while protecting against inflammation. In practice, they have the ability to create a barrier that prevents transepidermal water loss. Emollients are described as degreasing or refreshing additives that improve the lipid content of the upper layers of the skin by preventing degreasing and drying of the skin. The problem with emollients is that many have a strong lipophilic character and are identified as occlusive ingredients; they are oily and fatty materials that remain on the skin surface and reduce transepidermal water loss. In cosmetics, emollients and moisturisers are often considered synonymous with humectants and occlusives.
