Fermentoil Red Ginseng

Bioactive Fermented Ginseng Oil for Enhanced Rejuvenation and Firming

INCI Name: Pseudozyma Epicola, Apricot Kernel Oil, Olive Fruit Oil, Sunflower Seed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Panax Ginseng Root Extract Ferment Extract Filtrate

Fermentoil Red Ginseng is a high-performance cosmetic active that combines a nourishing blend of plant oils with the rejuvenating power of Panax Ginseng, all enhanced through a specialized fermentation process. This technology transforms the oils and ginseng extract, increasing the bioavailability of active compounds like ginsenosides and creating beneficial metabolites. The result is a less greasy, faster-absorbing oil that effectively strengthens the skin barrier, stimulates collagen synthesis, and provides superior antioxidant protection, making it ideal for advanced anti-aging and restorative formulations.

Solubility Notes:

Oil-soluble; incorporate into the oil phase. Heat-stable and compatible with standard processing up to 80°C.

Performance & Formulation Insights for Fermentoil Red Ginseng

How Fermentation Unlocks Advanced Bioavailability

Fermentoil Red Ginseng is created using a unique fermentation process with the yeast Pseudozyma Epicola. This microbial process transforms the molecular structure of the base oils (Apricot, Olive, Sunflower, Almond) and the Panax Ginseng Root Extract. Fermentation breaks down large triglyceride molecules into more bioavailable components, including free fatty acids, sophorolipids, and monoglycerides. This reduces the oil’s particle size and viscosity, resulting in a lighter, less greasy skin feel with dramatically enhanced penetration. Simultaneously, fermentation increases the bioavailability of ginsenosides in Red Ginseng, helping these potent compounds better support collagen production and defend against oxidative stress.

Formulation Guidelines for Optimal Performance

This fermented oil is a versatile, robust ingredient for both anhydrous systems and emulsions. It is oil-soluble and should be incorporated into the oil phase; it withstands typical processing temperatures up to 80°C without degradation. Recommended usage rate is 2–10%, with higher levels suited to intensive treatment formats. Due to its improved polarity from fermentation, it shows excellent compatibility within emulsions compared to traditional oils. It pairs especially well with lipophilic actives such as Vitamin E (Tocopherol), Coenzyme Q10, and retinoids, supporting enhanced delivery and overall formula stability.

Key Formulation Benefits

Enhanced Skin Absorption: Fermentation reduces molecular size, creating a lightweight, fast-absorbing oil with a non-greasy finish.
Stimulates Collagen Synthesis: Bioavailable ginsenosides from Red Ginseng help support collagen production for improved firmness and repair.
Powerful Antioxidant Protection: Delivers robust defense against free radicals from UV exposure and environmental pollutants.
Improved Skin Barrier Function: Elevated levels of free fatty acids help replenish lipids, reducing TEWL and enhancing resilience.
Superior Skin Feel: Combines multiple nourishing oils without heaviness or occlusion, suitable for a wide range of skin types.
Increased Bioavailability: Fermentation yields beneficial metabolites and makes key actives more readily usable by the skin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Fermentoil Red Ginseng

Unlike a simple infusion, Fermentoil Red Ginseng is fermented to break down the carrier oils and ginseng extract into smaller, more bioavailable molecules. This delivers superior skin penetration, a lighter feel, and a higher level of beneficial components like free fatty acids and fermentation-derived metabolites.

Enhanced absorption, increased bioavailability of ginsenosides, a less greasy skin feel, and the creation of beneficial metabolites that support skin health and barrier function.

Use at 2% to 10%. Opt for lower levels in daily maintenance products and higher levels (5–10%) in targeted anti-aging treatments, facial oils, and restorative serums.

Yes. Its nutrient-rich profile suits hair oils, scalp serums, and intensive conditioners to nourish the scalp and support stronger hair.

Generally yes. Fermentation can generate soothing metabolites and the ingredient helps reinforce the barrier. As with any active, patch testing is recommended for very sensitive skin.

Add to the oil phase. It is heat-stable and can be combined with other oils, butters, and waxes and heated during standard processing.
