The process of fermentation (fermentation) is as old as the world, but only now cosmetics manufacturers have decided to try to apply this method in the creation of cosmetics. The idea worked great — fermented cosmetics are already being called a fashion trend and the main hit of this year. And some pin their hopes on it as a revolutionary breakthrough in the production of natural cosmetics.
What is the use of such living cosmetics? How to choose fermented cosmetics? Why is their popularity only growing? Read about all this in the article estet-portal.com.
What is the use of living cosmetics from fermentation products
Live cosmetics – this is what is popularly called a home remedy or organic cosmetics, which specializes in individual brands, that is, products whose composition consists of 90-95% of herbal ingredients. And fermented products raise the concept of living cosmetics to a whole new level.
Let's remember what fermentation is. The fermentation process is the conversion of sugars into acids, alcohols or gases (this occurs under the influence of beneficial bacteria).
Fermented foods that our people and other peoples have been using for many centuries in a row (sauerkraut, kefir, yogurt and other fermented milk products, soy sauce, wine, beer, etc.) are famous for their health benefits. This is explained by that during fermentation, the concentration of nutrients in the product increases, and they are more easily absorbed by the body. It seems that nature itself ordered people to increase the concentration of nutrients in natural cosmetics, right?
The first to use the fermentation process in the production of care products were Asians (namely Korean brands), which have long surpassed the West in new cosmetic trends. Processing with bacteria allows natural ingredients to open up in a new way and acquire new properties.
Live cosmetics: a bit of history
Although for the first time the connection between the fermentation process and beauty was noticed by the Japanese back in the distant 1970s. Then at the factory for the production of sake (also a fermented alcoholic drink), scientists accidentally noticed that the hands of the workers look much younger than their faces. The whole secret was just in the constant contact of the skin of the hands with the products of fermentation. With this "life hack" took advantage of the company SK-II, which tested several hundred enzymes and released a branded essence for the face. However, then the experiment was a single one, but the Koreans in our time have already taken up the matter on a grand scale.
Why every woman should have live cosmetics
Live cosmetics are saturated with natural acids that exfoliate the skin gently and gently, but at the same time very effectively. It is clear that after such a peeling, the effectiveness of using cream and other moisturizing or nourishing products will only increase.
And the main miracle is that fermented cosmetics are suitable even for those with dry and sensitive skin. When using it, you can not worry about redness and skin irritation. This effect is achieved due to the fact that aggressive chemicals are replaced in fermented products with mild plant extracts, which, moreover, are obtained naturally and without the use of high temperatures during production.
Because of this, you should also be prepared for the fact that such cosmetics cannot be cheap:
So adding these miracle products to your routine beauty diet is very useful! Some brands are developing full-fledged 40+ cosmetic lines based on enzymes.
If you are not ready to purchase a series of products immediately without trying, you can start experimenting with fermented face masks, soft lotions and essences for the face – branded products from brands specializing in fermented cosmetics.
