Bacillus Ferment: what is it, what does it do and do I want it?

Bacillus Ferment. If you’ve already brought home the YLONN KJARR scrub, you might have heard of it—or at least noticed it on the ingredient list. This natural ingredient is what makes the scrub so effective.

But what exactly is Bacillus Ferment, and why does it have such a peculiar name? Let me explain!

What Is Bacillus Ferment?

Bacillus Ferment is an enzymatic exfoliant used to deeply cleanse and exfoliate the skin. The term “enzymatic” means the product’s exfoliating effect comes from fruit enzymes.

In the case of Bacillus Ferment, these are bacterial protease enzymes. This differs from chemical exfoliants or peels, which rely on fruit acids.

As the name suggests, Bacillus Ferment works through fermentation.

“Ew, gross!” you might think, but don’t worry—there’s nothing unpleasant about it.

What Is Fermentation, and Why Does It Sound So Gross?

Okay, technically, “fermentation” is just a fancy way of saying “controlled rotting.” It’s understandable if that sounds a bit off-putting at first.

Rubbing something rotten on your face? No thanks! But here’s the secret: fermentation allows the good bacteria to do their job.

During fermentation, ingredients are repeatedly broken down. Throughout this process, harmful and toxic bacteria are naturally eliminated.

This can take days, weeks, or even months. The repeated breakdown reduces the ingredients into tiny molecules, making them easier for the skin to absorb—even reaching its deeper layers.

Additionally, these ultra-small molecules are less likely to cause irritation.

What Does Bacillus Ferment Do?

Bacillus Ferment gently loosens dead skin cells from the deeper layers of your skin.

This process reveals a fresh, younger, and healthier layer of skin. It also promotes cell renewal and helps reduce cell cohesion.

If that’s not enough, Bacillus Ferment also aids in breaking down keratin proteins in the epidermis (outer skin layer). Keratin is a natural protein found in your hair, nails, skin, and teeth. It plays a crucial role in preventing skin dryness.

Sounds impressive for a fermented ingredient, doesn’t it? That’s why Bacillus Ferment is increasingly being used in various skincare products.

Is Bacillus Ferment Right for Me?

Not every scrub or exfoliating treatment is suitable for every skin type or body area. Unfortunately, people with sensitive skin are all too familiar with this fact.

Both chemical peels (with fruit acids) and enzymatic peels (with fruit enzymes) loosen dead skin cells without the need for abrasive movements.

However, the major advantage of scrubs based on enzymatic ingredients is that they’re much gentler on the skin while still being highly effective.

Moreover, Bacillus Ferment has antibacterial properties.

This makes scrubs with this wonder ingredient not only suitable for sensitive skin but also ideal for those struggling with acne, blemishes, or uneven skin texture.

Because of its gentle nature, Bacillus Ferment can even be used on delicate areas of the body, such as your underarms and bikini line.
