Hydrolyzed Yeast Protein

Hydrolyzed yeast protein is a protein derived from yeast that has been broken down into smaller peptides and amino acids. In skincare, it functions as a skin conditioning agent, helping to improve the skin's hydration and overall feel. It can also contribute to a smoother skin texture.

Whether the ingredient helps increase the skin’s water content — humectants that attract water, ingredients that reduce water loss, or ones that make skin feel less dry.

Soothing i0.8 / 4

Texture i0.5 / 4

Whether it can improve smoothness and surface texture — roughness, flaking, clogged pores, or unevenness. Exfoliating acids, retinoids, and smoothing moisturizers may score here.
