Understanding Alteromonas Ferment Extract

Understanding Alteromonas Ferment Extract

A person’s skin encounters a barrage of pollutants daily, even if it's not at the forefront of their mind. These environmental factors can significantly impact overall health, with the skin bearing the initial brunt.

Pollution contributes to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, dryness, and irritation. It also exacerbates conditions like eczema and acne. Incorporating anti-pollution skincare products into a daily regimen is simpler than one might imagine. Below, we delve into one potent ingredient for combating pollution's effects: EXO-P™.

Understanding Pollution:

Air pollution comprises tiny particles known as particulate matter, encompassing both organic and human-made elements. According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), particulate matter, often abbreviated as "PM," consists of a blend of small particles and liquid containing nitrates, sulfates, organic chemicals, metals, soil, and dust particles, varying in size.

How Anti-Pollution Products Function:

The essence of anti-pollution skincare involves leveraging ingredients that counteract free radicals. These unstable molecules can disrupt our body's systems, leading to various skin concerns.

Within the skin, this disruption can manifest as damage to the skin barrier and underlying layers, resulting in structural issues. Here are some ways free radicals impact our skin and what we observe:

How the Skin is Damaged

Visible Effects

Increased Transepidermal Water Loss

Dryness

Uneven Melanin Distribution

Hyperpigmentation

Thinning Epidermis

Enhanced Skin Fragility

Degradation of Collagen & Elastin

Wrinkles, Fine Lines, Crepey Skin

Compromised Skin Barrier Function

Skin Irritation, Heightened Sensitivity

 

Typically, anti-pollution care harnesses antioxidants to mitigate free radical damage. Our Facial Cleanser with Pollution Protection integrates another key ingredient that amplifies its free radical-fighting prowess: EXO-P™.

Unveiling EXO-P: An Anti-Pollution Essential:

Dubbed "EXO-P," this exopolysaccharide is scientifically recognized as Alteromonas Ferment Extract. Originating from the pristine waters of French Polynesia, the EXO-P™ in our Facial Cleanser forms a natural shield against urban pollutants and smog.

By establishing a biomimetic shield or "mesh" on the skin's surface, Alteromonas Ferment Extract diminishes particulate-matter adhesion, effectively entrapping and eliminating these particles while safeguarding against further harm.

Its multi-protective mechanism reduces free radical activity, defending the skin from damage induced by heavy metals and hydrocarbons. In essence, it's a potent ingredient that delivers a significant blow to particulate matter.

The Perks of EXO-P™:

EXO-P™ stands out as a superb addition to anti-pollution skincare due to its rapid efficacy, natural origin, and safety profile. It aids in revitalizing lackluster skin, revealing a rejuvenated, more radiant complexion. Moreover, EXO-P™ works diligently to combat future damage with consistent use.

Awareness of pollution's adverse effects on the skin is crucial, particularly for those residing in urban areas with high pollution and smog levels. Armed with knowledge, you can proactively combat particulate matter and safeguard your skin from pollution's detrimental effects.

Incorporating an anti-pollution cleanser into your skincare regimen is a straightforward yet impactful measure to combat free radicals and shield your skin from pollution-induced damage.
