Fermented active ingredients for healthy, radiant skin
Seven synergistic skincare products with pre- and postbiotics strengthen the skin barrier, while essential lipids such as ceramides and membrane lipids help regenerate the skin structure from within. Innovative moisturizers provide intensive hydration, while antioxidant protection helps defend against free radicals. With pure, natural ingredients such as superfruits and high-quality oils, the skin can return to its natural balance and healthy radiance.

Skin imbalance
The outermost layer of the skin – the stratum corneum – consists of water and lipids, with ceramides accounting for around 60% of the lipids and being essential for a stable skin barrier.
The microbiome lies on top of this layer, forming a natural protective film of microorganisms. Together, the stratum corneum and microbiome form the skin’s first line of defense.
Fermented active ingredients specifically support their regeneration, thereby strengthening the skin’s resilience and overall skin health.
Gut imbalance
The skin and gut microbiomes are closely interconnected: An imbalanced gut, for example due to stress or an unhealthy diet, can manifest in skin concerns such as blemishes or chronic conditions such as rosacea.
While harmful bacteria can weaken the immune system, beneficial bacteria support the health of both the skin and the gut.
A fiber-rich diet and fermented foods promote balance – as do prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics, which support the microbiome from within and from the outside.
Causes
- External and internal factors such as UV radiation, stress or hormones can disrupt the balance of the skin and microbiome.
- Cracks in the skin barrier can lead to moisture loss (TEWL) and a compromised ceramide “mortar.”
- An imbalance in the microbiome can promote pro-inflammatory bacteria, potentially contributing to acne and irritation.
Aftereffects
- A weakened skin barrier can lead to oxidative stress and cell damage caused by free radicals.
- The result can be dry, flaky, irritated skin and a weakened immune defense.
- Microbiome-friendly skincare with fermented active ingredients as well as pre- and postbiotics supports ceramide structures and promotes balance within the skin and gut microbiomes.
FAQs
What makes Dr. Niedermaier’s fermented skincare special?
The Fermented Skincare line is based on 20% fermented Regulatessenz® – an elixir made from 17 natural ingredients such as artichokes, pomegranate, dates, mung bean sprouts and coconut. Through a patented fermentation process, the released bioactive micronutrients can penetrate particularly deeply into the skin. This means the skincare not only supports the skin’s surface, but also promotes regeneration at deeper levels – holistically and naturally. Each skincare cream is additionally enriched with high-quality organic oils and active ingredients with scientifically studied efficacy. As a system-based skincare range, all products differ in their mechanisms of action and textures while being perfectly coordinated with one another.
Why is fermented cosmetics so effective?
Fermentation breaks down active ingredients into smaller molecules. This allows them to penetrate the skin more effectively and exert their effects. Fermented Skincare harnesses the full biological spectrum of fermented plant-based ingredients – supporting enhanced absorption, naturally strengthening the microbiome and promoting deep regeneration of the skin barrier.
What exactly is the skin microbiome?
The skin microbiome is located on the outermost layer of the skin, the stratum corneum, also known as the horny layer. It consists of a natural protective film made up of beneficial bacteria, viruses and fungi. Together with the stratum corneum, it forms the skin barrier – our first line of defense against external influences such as pollutants, pathogens and free radicals.
For which skin types is fermented skincare suitable?
The line was developed for all skin types – including sensitive, mature or stressed skin. Thanks to pre- and postbiotic active ingredients, it helps support the skin microbiome’s natural balance.
Can I use the products in the morning and evening?
Yes! The products are formulated to integrate seamlessly into your daily skincare routine:
Example Routine:
- Morning: Cleansing Foam → Facial Tonic → Lifting Serum → Eye Cream → Day Cream → optional: Extra Rich Cream
- Evening: Cleansing Foam → Facial Tonic → Lifting Serum → Night Cream
How long does fermented skincare last after opening?
All Fermented Skincare products have a shelf life of 6 months after opening. Thanks to the high-quality formulations and innovative airless dispenser, the active ingredients remain optimally protected – right down to the last pump.
Are the products free from concerning ingredients?
Yes. All Fermented Skincare products are:
- Free from PEGs, parabens, silicones, mineral oils, colorants and preservatives
- Vegetarian & certified according to international natural cosmetics standards
- Dermatologically tested for skin compatibility
How sustainable is the packaging?
The packaging was designed with sustainability in mind:
- 95% recycled content in the outer packaging
- Glass dispenser with a squeeze inner pouch for complete product dispensing
- Easy separation of glass and plastic for optimal recycling
This is how we combine efficacy with responsibility.
