FunctionFerment

What it is — Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate (INCI: Galactomyces Ferment Filtrate) is a fermentation-derived ingredient.

What it does — It is commonly used for hydration and skin revitalizing.

Typical use — It is used in essences, serums, toners and creams, valued in K-beauty for a conditioning, skin-revitalizing feel. Fermentation breaks larger molecules into smaller, skin-friendly fragments and by-products.

Who it suits / good to know — Generally well tolerated with a long use history. As with any active-feeling ingredient, reactive users may prefer to introduce it gradually. Patch-testing is still worthwhile if your skin reacts to new actives easily.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk: well-tolerated ferment with a long use history in K-beauty skincare. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.

Why we grade it Low: Low risk — well-tolerated ferment with a long use history in K-beauty skincare.
How grades are set — Risk reflects our own reading of publicly available safety data, an EWG-style reading shown at the worst-case grade we've assigned this ingredient across products. It isn't a third party's proprietary score, and it isn't medical advice. Always read the packaging and patch-test where indicated.
