Functions
Skin Conditioning
A catch-all term for ingredients that improve how skin looks and feels — softer, smoother, more supple. The workhorse behind most moisturizers.
Antioxidant
Fights free radicals — the unstable molecules from UV, pollution, and stress that break down collagen and cause premature aging.
Soothing
Calms redness, irritation, and inflammation. Your skin's chill pill — great for sensitive, reactive, or post-procedure skin.
Skin Protecting
Anti-Inflammatory
Boosts Collagen
Shields skin from damage
Traditional Use
Yeast lysate technology emerged in the 1980s-1990s as a way to extract intracellular components from yeast for enhanced skin benefits. Originally developed to improve moisturization and skin resilience in anti-aging formulations.
