The details
Yeast extract is a silky, clear liquid derived from yeast (usually Saccharomyces cerevisiae or Torula yeast). This ingredient has plenty of skin benefits: Bioferments of yeast and soy have been found to reduce hyperpigmentation at low levels. Yeast extract is fungal acne safe because it's made up of amino acids, peptides, B vitamins, and nucleotides (not the C11-C24 fatty acids that Malassezia needs to thrive). The "yeast" in the name can be misleading, but FA safety is about chemical composition and not ingredient origin.
