SCH

6/10

Concern level

Moderate concern

A yeast-derived fermentation filtrate used mainly as a humectant and skin-conditioning ingredient. It is produced by fermenting a growth medium with Schizosaccharomyces species, then filtering the broth to retain soluble fermentation components. In cosmetics it is generally used to support hydration, improve skin feel, and contribute to a smoother, conditioned finish rather than to act as a high-potency active.

Interactions

incompatible with: No well-documented ingredient incompatibilities are established in public safety references., For sensitive-skin formulas, pair cautiously with strong exfoliating acids, high-strength retinoids, or high-ethanol systems if the finished product already has a high irritation burden.

Risks & Warnings

Available safety data are limited compared with more common yeast ferments. Main concerns are low-probability irritation or sensitivity in reactive users, and formula-dependent contamination/preservative issues rather than intrinsic comedogenicity. CIR classed Schizosaccharomyces Ferment Filtrate among yeast-derived ingredients with insufficient data because of lack of both systemic toxicity/food-use/GRAS/QPS data and sensitization data.
