Fermenstation Facial Soap
The Fermenstation Facial Soap line brings to bear the holistic power of fermentation. Each soap is made with organic rice lees born of a natural, yeast-based fermentation process that yields high levels of skin-supporting nutrients, such as vitamin E, arbutin and ferulic acid.
The result is a soap loaded with easily absorbed nourishment and hydrating oils that tighten and lighten skin by reducing blemishes, soothing inflammation and delivering moisture where it's needed most. Fermenstation soaps are also petroleum-free and unscented, save for the sweet and subtle aroma of rice.
- Natural: A blend of plant-based ingredients - including sunflower, camellia, coconut and jojoba oils - add their moisturizing powers to this soap.
- Rich: The addition of cocoa butter, squalane and argan oil boosts the moisturizing effects of this soap for even smoother, silkier skin.
- Premium: By increasing the proportions of cocoa butter and rice lees, this soap offers maximum hydration and nutritional content for the ultimate skincare experience.
Type
Fermenstation
The Fermenstation brand was born from a forward-thinking, no-waste mentality. Organic brown rice is cultivated in formerly unused paddies and fermented to produce ethanol and lees; any byproducts not used to create their natural skincare line are used as livestock feed or fertilizer instead. This "circular society" is more than just eco-friendly, however: It produces uniquely beneficial soaps rich in easily absorbed nutrients and skin-pampering oils that leave you looking - and feeling - as clean and fresh as the ingredients they contain.
