Performance & Formulation Insights for Fermentoil Avocado

How Fermentation Enhances Avocado Oil

Fermentoil Avocado is created using a targeted fermentation technology with the yeast Pseudozyma epicola. This natural biotransformation breaks down triglycerides in avocado oil into more skin-compatible components such as free fatty acids, monoglycerides, and diglycerides. The result is increased bioavailability and improved skin penetration, enabling more efficient delivery of Vitamin E, oleic acid, and antioxidants. Compared to conventional avocado oil, this fermented active offers a lighter, less occlusive sensory profile while delivering superior moisturization and conditioning benefits without greasiness.

Formulation Guidelines & Technical Advantages

Fermentoil Avocado is oil-soluble and should be incorporated into the oil phase of your formulation; gentle heating can be used if needed. Recommended usage is 2–10%, depending on desired moisturization level and sensorial feel. The fermentation process enhances its emulsifying contribution, which can support overall emulsion stability. Highly compatible with lipophilic actives such as botanical oils, vitamins A and E, and ceramides, this ingredient is an excellent choice for upgrading traditional oil-based formats with enhanced performance and an elegant, fast-absorbing finish.
