What it is

Galactomyces ferment filtrate is the filtered byproduct of fermentation by Galactomyces yeast. Cosmetic literature attributes hydration, perceived tone-evening, and a mild “glow” to its amino acid, peptide, and vitamin profile. K-beauty popularized it in essence form, often at high concentrations.
