Lemon peel Bioferment (oil soluble)

Description

Lemon Peel Bioferment (Oil Soluble) is a naturally derived active obtained through the biofermentation of Citrus limon (lemon) peel and dispersed in an oil base for stability and enhanced delivery. Rich in antioxidants, natural AHAs, and bioactive compounds, it is highly valued in skincare for its brightening, clarifying, and protective properties.

This oil-soluble bioferment provides the benefits of lemon without the instability or irritation associated with raw citrus extracts, making it safe and effective for cosmetic formulations.

Description

Lemon Peel Bioferment (Oil Soluble) – Standardized is an innovative ingredient produced via controlled fermentation of lemon peel, yielding a concentrated extract that is stabilized in oil.

The fermentation process enhances the bioavailability of key actives such as flavonoids, antioxidants, and natural exfoliating compounds, making them more effective and gentle on the skin. Unlike essential oils, this bioferment does not contain harsh volatile compounds, offering a safer alternative with greater formulation flexibility.

Topically, it works to brighten dull skin, refine texture, and defend against oxidative damage while nourishing with its lipid-compatible base.

SOURCE

Lemon Peel Bioferment is the result of macerating whole lemon fruit and incubating it with Lactobacillus lacti (the same bacteria used to produce many fermented food products like cheese and sour cream). This ferment is then further processed to remove the potential allergens, citral and geraniol. The resulting ferment is said to have both anti-tyrosinase and antioxidant activity. Similar to yogurt incubation, Lemon Peel Bioferment has an effective suppression of up to 70% tyrosinase when used at 2%, which is safer and more efficient than Hydro. Quinone (Hydroquinone)
