Description

Endomyces/Aesculus Hippocastanum Ferment Filtrate is obtained through the fermentation of Aesculus Hippocastanum (Horse Chestnut) extracts using the microorganism Endomyces. This filtrate is valued in the cosmetic and personal care industry for its enhanced bioavailability and increased efficacy, providing anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and skin-conditioning benefits.

Chemical Composition and Structure
Endomyces/Aesculus Hippocastanum Ferment Filtrate contains bioactive compounds that are produced or enhanced during the fermentation process. Key components include:

Fermentation Metabolites: Such as peptides, amino acids, and organic acids that enhance skin benefits.
Enhanced Aescin: The fermentation process increases the bioavailability of aescin, a saponin known for its anti-inflammatory and vasoprotective properties.
Flavonoids and Antioxidants: Boosted through fermentation, providing enhanced protection against environmental stressors.
Physical Properties
Endomyces/Aesculus Hippocastanum Ferment Filtrate typically appears as a clear to light amber liquid. It is soluble in water, making it suitable for various cosmetic formulations. The filtrate has a mild, characteristic scent that is often neutralized in formulations.

Cosmetic and Personal Care Applications
Anti-inflammatory: Enhanced properties to reduce inflammation and soothe irritated skin.

Antioxidant: Improved protection against free radical damage and environmental stressors.

Skin Conditioning: Deeply conditions the skin, improving texture and appearance.

Moisturizing: Provides long-lasting hydration, making the skin feel softer and more supple.

Vasoprotective: Strengthens capillaries and improves microcirculation, beneficial for treating conditions like puffiness and spider veins.

Environmental and Safety Considerations

Endomyces/Aesculus Hippocastanum Ferment Filtrate is generally considered safe for use in cosmetic and personal care products when used within recommended concentrations. The fermentation process is environmentally friendly and sustainable, ensuring minimal impact on natural resources.

Cosmetics - INCI Functions


Skin conditioning agent. It is the mainstay of topical skin treatment as it has the function of restoring, increasing or improving skin tolerance to external factors, including melanocyte tolerance. The most important function of the conditioning agent is to prevent skin dehydration, but the subject is rather complex and involves emollients and humectants that can be added in the formulation.
