This ampoule features a potent blend of Bifida and probiotics, designed to fortify the skin barrier, balance the microbiome, and enhance overall skin resilience, a key focus in modern Korean skincare.

What It Is

This ampoule from Manyo Factory is a concentrated treatment targeting skin barrier health and microbiome balance. It falls into the highly sought-after probiotic skincare category, offering a multi-pronged approach to address sensitivity, dryness, and a compromised barrier. Unlike many hydrators, it doesn't just add moisture, but actively helps the skin's own protective mechanisms function optimally, crucial for mitigating environmental stressors and maintaining skin clarity.

Key Ingredients

• Bifida Ferment Lysate (50%): A postbiotic ingredient, it supports the skin's microbiome, enhancing barrier function and potentially reducing sensitivity by promoting a healthy microbial environment.
• Lactobacillus Ferment Lysate: Another probiotic derivative, it helps calm the skin and reinforces its natural defenses against external aggressors, contributing to a more balanced complexion.
• Lactococcus Ferment Lysate: A probiotic extract known for its ability to stimulate skin renewal and strengthen the skin barrier, assisting in maintaining skin vitality and smoothness.
• 10 Hyaluronic Acids: A blend of different molecular weights ensures hydration penetrates multiple layers of the epidermis, drawing and retaining moisture for sustained plumpness and a dewy finish.

The formulation prioritizes barrier support with a complex of fermented ingredients, steering clear of common irritants such as artificial fragrance, essential oils, and drying alcohols. It is also pH-balanced, typically around 5.5-6.0, to respect the skin's natural acidic mantle and prevent disruption, making it suitable for delicate skin types.
