For many of us, we hear the word “fermented” and the first thing that springs to mind is beer! However, it’s been common knowledge for some time now that fermented foods are incredibly good for you and it’s recommended that you add more fermented foods to your diet for a healthy gut. Skincare brands are also starting to recognise the power of fermented ingredients, so we thought we’d put together a list of some of the best lotions and potions which harness the power of fermentation:

Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Booster

Everything in the Elemis Superfood range contains ingredients derived from superfoods, and in this case it packs a double punch by using fermented extracts of pumpkin and acerola cherry, both of which are rich in brightening AHAs to help smooth away dull skin. As if that weren’t enough, it also contains fermented rice water and green tea seed oil, which are combined with a balancing prebiotic for a nourishing and hydrating boost.

Aromatherapy Associates Eye Zone Concentrate

This concentrated eye treatment from Aromatherapy Associates contains a powerful blend of ingredients to immediately tighten the skin around the eye. A combination of bio-fermented actives, advanced amino acids and an effective pure essential oil blend restore the elasticity of the skin, while edelweiss stem cells help minimise the appearance of fine lines. The product contains a perfect balance between science and nature to give a potent effect.

Dermalogica Phyto Replenish Body Oil

This body oil from Dermalogica is inspired by Korean beauty and contains fermented red ginseng, which calms and nourishes to deliver glowing skin. Bergamot, neroli, orange, patchouli and sandalwood combine to create a delicate yet heady fragrance which leaves skin soft and clean and can be used wet or dry, depending on your preference.

Elemis Superfood AHA Glow Cleansing Butter

Another product from the Elemis Superfood range, this cleansing butter contains fermented pumpkin and acerola cherry to cleanse the skin while helping it to glow. The ingredients are packed with AHAs and natural enzymes capable of enhancing the skin’s natural cellular renewal process to gently smooth away dull skin for a fresh glowing complexion.

Dermalogica Stress Positive Eye Lift

This hydrating, cooling eye gel contains a plethora of natural ingredients which work together to improve the skin from the inside out. As well as containing fermented yeast, which is effective at protecting skin lipids, there’s a healthy dose of sea water, indigo seed extract, arctic algae and hyaluronic acid, which all combine to prevent water loss from the skin, enhance the skin’s elasticity and also protect the natural microbiome.
