Galactomyces

Galactomyces ferment filtrate visibly calms facial redness, refines enlarged pores, smooths rough texture, softens fine lines, fades dark spots, and boosts moisture. It suits dry skin and oily skin particularly well, and it is most commonly found in lightweight toners. Because of its fluid texture, it layers easily into any daily skincare routine.
