Consortia Factors® (UCFx-F™ & UCFx-T™ — dual-source) → ReLuxe Body Serum
INCI: Ustilago Cynodontis Ferment (UCFx-F™ & UCFx-T™)
Evidence: Strong (ingredient study) What it is
Our patented hero technology, created by co-culturing yeast (Ustilago cynodontis) with plant stem cells; flax (Linum usitatissimum) or tulsi (Ocimum sanctum). The result is a natural consortia factor system that delivers exosomes, peptides, and beneficial metabolites that support various cellular activities, such as antioxidation, anti-inflammation, and anti-aging.
How it works
Its consortia factors, composed of exosomes, peptides, and signaling metabolites, help activate skin's renewal pathways; biomimetic lipids reinforce the barrier; and concentrated antioxidants (including vitamin C) neutralize free radicals and inflammation. Because the co-culture produces compounds neither parent cell makes alone, its antioxidant defense is measurably more potent than single-source ferments.
Gluconolactone
INCI: Gluconolactone
Evidence: Established (class) What it is
A gentle polyhydroxy acid (PHA) that also acts as a humectant and antioxidant.
How it works
It offers mild, non-irritating refinement, gently smoothing the look of texture while drawing in moisture and supporting a calm, balanced, even-looking surface. Its gentleness suits sensitive and dry-prone skin, from the face to the body's toughest dry zones.
Nourishing Lipids & Hydration Base
INCI: Propanediol · Glycerin · Glyceryl Caprylate · Polyglyceryl-6 Oleate · Sodium Surfactin · plant-derived glucosides
Evidence: Established (class) What it is
A silky base of humectants, nourishing lipids, and gentle plant-derived emulsifiers that gives the serum its luxurious, fast-absorbing feel.
How it works
Humectants draw in moisture, nourishing lipids soften and condition, and biosurfactant Sodium Surfactin helps the formula glide and absorb without heaviness.
