Venuceane

Venuceane, an active from a heat-loving microorganism

Venuceane is a cosmetic active whose published INCI is Thermus Thermophillus Ferment, Glycerin. Thermus thermophilus is a microorganism that lives in hot springs, and its ferment contains enzymes that stay stable at high temperatures. That robustness is the story behind Venuceane, which is positioned to help skin look protected against the visible effects of sun and daily stress. It is a liquid, sold from a 1 oz pack up to 32 oz bulk; check the lot CoA for the exact composition.

Where brands use it

Venuceane belongs in daily appearance-focused cosmetic creams, day fluids, after-sun lotions and products for skin exposed to sun and pollution. It helps a formula carry an antioxidant and photoaging-look story without changing the texture much. Follow the use level on the supplier documents, commonly a few percent in leave-on products.

Partners for daily defense care

Pair Venuceane with an antioxidant such as ferulic acid in day serums, or with ectoin in after-sun care for a soothed, comfortable feel. You will find more antioxidant and age-care ingredients in our cosmetic actives section.

Formulating notes

Add Venuceane to the water phase or into an emulsion at cool-down. Even though the ferment comes from a heat-loving organism, short exposure to heat in the finished batch is still the best practice. Store the pack closed, cool and away from light. For wholesale volumes above 32 oz, request a bulk quote from the supplier specification. It ships from Florida, usually within 1 to 2 business days, in the pack sizes shown above, and US shipping is free on orders of $50 or more.
