Fermented skincare products 

You must have heard the term all-natural all the time as beauty enthusiasts are shifting to looking for a product that has undergone a natural process. As such, comes the term fermented ingredients. In fact, fermented ingredients in relation to skincare offer a handful of anti-aging benefits as published in this study dated 2020. Fermented skincare products are making a noise in today’s beauty industry. Experts agreed that fermented ingredients are popular as it uses a natural process to enhance potency and penetration without having to irritate the skin. 

The good thing is, take pride that our product offerings are fermented cosmetics. Normally, your skin cannot easily absorb the actives of natural ingredients. But all thanks to the process of fermentation, where it helps microorganisms break down the molecules into smaller sizes, so your skin can easily absorb the skin benefitting ingredients. Because at the end of the day, that’s what we, at B&A Cosmetics, want you to have is – the best of the best ingredients.
