Fermented active ingredients for healthy, radiant skin
Seven synergistic skincare products with pre- and postbiotics strengthen the skin’s protective barrier, while essential lipids such as ceramides and membrane lipids regenerate the skin structure from within. Innovative moisturizers provide deep hydration, and antioxidant protection wards off free radicals. With pure, natural ingredients such as superfruits and high-quality oils, the skin returns 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 making up around 60% of the lipids and being essential for a stable skin barrier.
The microbiome, a natural protective film of microorganisms, lies on top of this. Together, the horny layer and the microbiome form the skin's first line of defense.
Fermented active ingredients specifically promote its regeneration, thereby strengthening the skin's resilience and health.


Gut imbalance
The skin and gut microbiomes are closely
interlinked: a disrupted gut, for instance due to stress or poor nutrition,
can manifest in skin problems such as blemishes or chronic conditions like
rosacea.
While harmful bacteria weaken the immune system, beneficial
bacteria support the health of the skin and gut.
A fiber-rich diet and fermented foods promote
balance – as do prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics, which strengthen
the microbiome from the inside and out.
Causes
- External and internal stimuli such as UV radiation, stress, or hormones disrupt the balance of the skin and its microbiome.
- Breaches in the skin barrier lead to transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and a permeable ceramide "mortar."
- The imbalance in the microbiome favors pro-inflammatory bacteria, resulting in acne and irritation.
Follow
- A weakened skin barrier leads to oxidative stress and cell damage caused by free radicals.
- The result is dry, flaky, irritated skin and a weakened immune defense.
- Microbiome-friendly care with fermented active ingredients as well as pre- and postbiotics strengthens ceramide structures and promotes the balance of the skin and gut microbiome.
FAQs
What is special about the fermented skincare from Dr. Niedermaier?
The Fermented Skincare line is based on 20% fermented Regulatessenz® – an elixir made from 17 natural ingredients such as artichokes, pomegranates, dates, mung bean sprouts, or coconut. Thanks to a patented fermentation process, the released bioactive micronutrients are able to penetrate particularly deeply. In this way, the skincare does not just support the skin's surface, but regenerates it from within – holistically and naturally. Each skincare cream is additionally enriched with high-quality organic oils and active ingredients with study-based efficacy. As a system-based skincare regimen, all products differ in their mechanism of action and texture and are perfectly coordinated with one another.
Why is fermented skincare so effective?
Through fermentation, active ingredients are broken down into smaller molecules. This allows them to penetrate the skin more effectively and exert their effect. Fermented Skincare utilizes the full biological spectrum of fermented plant substances – this ensures more intensive absorption, a natural strengthening of the microbiome, and deep-acting regeneration of the
skin barrier.
What exactly is the skin microbiome?
The skin microbiome is located on the uppermost skin layer, the stratum corneum, also known as the horny layer. It consists of a natural protective film of beneficial bacteria, viruses, and fungi. Together with the horny layer, it forms the skin's protective barrier—our first line of defense against external influences such as pollutants, germs, or free radicals.
Which skin types is fermented skincare suitable for?
The line was developed for all skin types – including sensitive, mature, or stressed skin. Thanks to pre- and postbiotic active ingredients, it helps to strengthen the natural balance of the skin microbiome.
Can I use the products in the morning and evening?
Yes! The products are formulated to be ideally integrated 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 the 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 – until the very last pump.
Are the products free from questionable 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 developed with environmental friendliness in mind:
- 95% recycled content in the outer packaging
- Glass dispenser with an inner squeeze pouch for complete product removal
-
Easy separation of glass and plastic for optimal recycling
This is how we combine effectiveness with responsibility.
