COSRX Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence - 100ml

Cosrx Galactomyces 95 Tone Balancing Essence is a fermented essence with 95% galactomyces ferment filtrate, a yeast-derived ingredient that brightens, hydrates, and evens skin tone. Galactomyces ferment is produced through controlled fermentation, resulting in a nutrient-rich filtrate packed with amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and organic acids that nourish skin from within.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) amplifies the brightening effect and refines pores. Panthenol strengthens the skin barrier. Sodium hyaluronate provides deep hydration. Allantoin soothes. Adenosine firms and reduces fine lines. The minimal, clean formula contains just 12 effective ingredients, and 95% of it is the active ferment filtrate.

Pro tip: Galactomyces is the same type of fermented ingredient that makes SK-II's Pitera famous, but at a fraction of the price. The fermentation process breaks down nutrients into smaller molecules that penetrate more effectively than raw ingredients. The 95% concentration means this is essentially pure fermented goodness with minimal fillers. Use this as your brightening alternative to the Snail 96 Essence, both provide hydration, but this one focuses on tone-evening while the snail focuses on repair. Layer under any serum for enhanced absorption and glow.
