Product description

Aurafirm N is a fermented oat active complex with probiotic effect, produced by fermenting patented colloidal oats with Lactobacillus strains. During fermentation, the oat material is broken down into more bioavailable components and organic acids, amino acids, bioactive peptides and components that support the balance of the skin microbiome are formed. The result is a water-soluble, cloudy liquid containing fermentation metabolites and inactivated but structurally preserved bacteria, which behave on the skin in a similar way to live probiotic components.

This raw material is intended mainly for modern facial cosmetics focused on skin firmness, hydration, a fuller-looking complexion and supporting the skin’s microbial balance. According to the manufacturer’s documentation, efficacy has been demonstrated at a concentration of 2 % when monitoring parameters such as firmness, plumpness, hydration, epidermal thickness and maintenance of a balanced microbiome. Aurafirm N is also suitable for formulations for sensitive skin and, thanks to its origin from fermented oats, represents an interesting raw material for microbiome, hydrating and anti-age skincare concepts.

Key benefits

Supports the balance of the skin microbiome and contributes to higher diversity of skin microorganisms.
Helps improve skin hydration, among other things thanks to its content of organic acids, especially lactic acid, and its support of the barrier function.
Contributes to a fuller and firmer appearance of the skin and is suitable for formulations targeting early to moderately advanced signs of ageing.
Supports a fresher and less tired-looking complexion thanks to its effect on hydration, plumpness and the structure of the epidermis.
Contains amino acids, bioactive peptides and antioxidants that are formed or made available during fermentation.
Helps maintain a favourable skin pH, which is important for a healthy skin barrier and microbial environment.
Suitable for sensitive skin and for formulations with an emphasis on mildness and skin tolerance.

Suitable for products such as

facial creams and emulsions for day and night care
hydrating and anti-age serums
facial masks
products that support the skin microbiome
cosmetics for dry, tired and sensitive skin
formulations to improve skin plumpness and firmness
hair care products, especially conditioners and treatment products

Use in formulation

Recommended dosage: 1 – 5 % depending on the type of formulation and the desired effect.
Water-soluble and particularly suitable for the aqueous phase or into the finished emulsion during the final stage of production.
It is recommended to add it during the cooling phase (at a temperature below 40 °C).
Compatible with common raw materials used in skin care; no typical incompatibilities within the standard portfolio of cosmetic ingredients were reported in the technical documentation.
Miscible with both emulsion and gel systems, provided the formulation respects its aqueous character and the recommended pH range.
Recommended pH range of the formulation: 3.0 – 6.0.
In clear products it may cause a haze to translucent appearance, therefore it is not ideal where a completely clear result is required.
In low-viscosity systems with an insoluble fraction, it may be necessary to stabilise or thicken the formulation appropriately to limit sedimentation.

FAQ

Is Aurafirm N a true probiotic?

In the cosmetic context, it is a fermented raw material with probiotic activity. It contains bacteria of the genus Lactobacillus which are inactivated after pasteurisation but remain structurally preserved, so that when applied to the skin they show behaviour similar to live probiotic components.

Why is Aurafirm N not completely clear?

The haze is natural for this raw material because it contains a low proportion of insoluble fermented oat component. In the finished product, this may therefore result in a translucent to cloudy appearance, which is typical for this type of fermented raw material.

Is Aurafirm N also suitable for minimalist formulations?

Yes, this is one of its advantages. It is a multifunctional fermented active ingredient that combines in a single raw material microbiome support, a hydrating effect and benefits for a firmer and fuller-looking skin.

Is Aurafirm N suitable for products for sensitive skin?

According to available skin tolerance tests, yes. The raw material has been evaluated as non-irritant and hypoallergenic, therefore it is an interesting choice for gentle facial formulations and for cosmetics with an emphasis on skin comfort.

When is the best time to add Aurafirm N to an emulsion?

It is most appropriate to incorporate it during the cooling phase. This helps to better preserve the character of the fermentation components and at the same time respects the manufacturer’s recommendations for technological processing.

What is the difference between the preserved and unpreserved version?

The preserved version contains sodium benzoate and potassium sorbate, whereas the unpreserved version does not contain these components. The choice depends on the overall concept of the formulation and on how the preservation system is designed in your final product.
