NK‑072 Purslane Ferment Filtrate – The Soothing, Anti‑Itch Postbiotic for Sensitive & Irritated Skin
A yeast‑fermented purslane extract – rich in bioactive flavonoids, polysaccharides, amino acids, and vitamins. Clinically proven to calm redness, relieve itching, repair barrier, and fight free radicals.
Product Overview:
Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is a succulent plant known for centuries as a medicinal herb (“longevity vegetable”). It is rich in vitamins (A, C), minerals, omega‑3 fatty acids, flavonoids, and polysaccharides. Traditional uses include anti‑inflammatory, antimicrobial, and wound‑healing applications.
NK‑072 is produced by fermenting purslane with Saccharomyces yeast. Fermentation releases and enriches the bioactive compounds – amino acids, flavonoids, saponins, plant polysaccharides, and B vitamins – making them more bioavailable for skin. The resulting filtrate is a clear liquid, stabilised with butylene glycol and 1,2‑hexanediol (mild preservatives).
| Benefit | Mechanism |
|---|---|
| 🌿 Deep soothing & anti‑itch | Amino acids contract vascular smooth muscle, reduce histamine‑induced itching – calms dry, irritated skin |
| 🛡️ Barrier repair | Polysaccharides and vitamins nourish epithelial cells, normalise physiological function, reduce dead skin & flaking |
| ✨ Antioxidant & anti‑aging | Flavonoids and saponins scavenge free radicals, delay skin ageing |
| 🦠 Antimicrobial | Alkaloids and flavonoids inhibit common pathogenic skin fungi and bacteria |
| 💧 Hydrating & smoothing | Plant polysaccharides lock in moisture, leave skin silky and supple |
| ❤️ Redness reduction | Clinically shown to reduce skin redness |

Why NK‑072 Stands Out:
✅ Fermented for enhanced activity – compared to simple extracts, fermentation increases bioavailability of key actives.
✅ Multi‑functional – soothing, anti‑itch, barrier repair, antioxidant, antimicrobial, hydrating.
✅ Natural & gentle – derived from edible plant, suitable for sensitive skin.
✅ Easy to formulate – water‑soluble, heat‑stable, compatible with most bases.
Formulation Guidelines:
-
Dosage: 0.5‑10% depending on desired efficacy. For intensive soothing, use 5‑10%.
