**Skin and Fermented Products – The Asian Secret**
Aging skin is a concern for women across all continents. However, Asian women seem to have mastered the art of reversing this race against time. Some believe that Asian skin possesses unique biological traits, which help prolong its freshness. But the idea of a genetic lottery, in which Europe supposedly lost, isn’t entirely valid. This is where the topic of fermented skincare comes into play. This time-tested and proven technology originates from Asia. Today, its flagships are kimchi, kombucha, and miso. While it might sound mysterious, fermentation essentially occurs when microorganisms (like bacteria and yeast) break down ingredients, making them smaller and more bioavailable. These fragments are easier for the body to absorb, resulting in greater effectiveness. Now, imagine applying this concept to skincare. When ingredients like rice or yeast are fermented, they break down into smaller molecules, which easily penetrate the skin. In short, your skin gets a full dose of nutrients, free from the burden of inorganic chemicals.
Here are some iconic favorites among Asian skincare products:
– **Fermented Rice:** *Pitera™* (a patented fermented rice extract), found in SK-II Facial Treatment Essence, brightens, smooths, and renews the skin, giving it a radiant glow.
– **Camellia Seed Ferment:** *Ultimune* by Shiseido features a fermented camellia extract that boosts moisture retention and enhances skin elasticity.
– **Sorbitol Ferment:** The *First Care Activating Serum VI* by Sulwhasoo utilizes fermented sorbitol to create a moisture barrier, keeping the skin hydrated and fresh.
