Fermented camellia seed oil, known as Camellia Japonica Seed Oil Ferment Extract Filtrate, is extracted using yeasts of the genus Pseudozyma. Fermentation produces bioactive components that can enhance the oil's skin-care properties. (1) (2) (3) Fermented oils are characterized by moisturizing, antioxidant, and conditioning properties. (1) (4) Camellia seed oil is also suitable for skin and hair care. (4)An in-vivo study also showed that fermented oils can increase skin microbial diversity (alpha diversity) and positively influence the skin microbiome. (1)
