How we scored it
Filtrate of a lysed Saccharomyces ferment; fermentation-derived cell contents are natural origin = 1.0.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.
Where it comes from
Saccharomyces yeast is fermented, the cells are lysed to release intracellular content, and the mixture is filtered. No synthetic route exists.
In plain English
A skin-conditioning ingredient made by fermenting yeast, breaking open the cells, and filtering the result.
CosIng definition: Saccharomyces Ferment Lysate Filtrate is the filtrate of a lysate of the product obtained by the fermentation of Saccharomyces
