How it works
The Beer Yeast Shampoo is a 500ml shampoo, used in place of your usual shampoo, on hair wet all the way through. The ferment it is built around is Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract, named second on its own ingredient list. The same list carries Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Caffeine and Menthol, so the ferment is not the only thing on it worth naming. How much of the Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract stays on the skin, and for how long, is decided by the shampoo format rather than by the list alone. Benton sells this Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract shampoo in Korea, and this is that version.

Key actives
Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extractferment
An extract of brewer's yeast, the same organism used to make bread and beer. It supplies amino acids, sugars and beta-glucan and is used as a conditioning ferment. It is the entry this shampoo is named after, and the list carries it.
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizateactive
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate is a water-soluble salt derived from licorice root. It is named nineteenth on this shampoo's list, alongside Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract.
Caffeineactive
Caffeine constricts small blood vessels near the surface, which is why eye products use it for the look of puffiness and shadow. It is water soluble and works only while it is on the skin. It is named twenty-sixth on this shampoo's list, alongside Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract.
Mentholactive
Menthol is the cooling compound in mint. It acts on the nerve receptor that also answers to cold, which is why skin feels cool without any change in temperature. It is named twenty-seventh on this shampoo's list, alongside Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract.
Niacinamideactive
Niacinamide is vitamin B3, and it is the most studied active in Korean formulation. It is named thirty-third on this shampoo's list, alongside Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract.
Where does this shampoo go in my routine?
In place of your usual shampoo, on hair wet all the way through. Anything thinner than a shampoo goes on before it, and anything richer goes on after. If you are adding it to a routine you already like, give it a week on its own first, so what you see is the Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract and not three changes at once.
Does this shampoo contain fragrance?
Yes. The ingredient list names Fragrance and Parfum. They sit on the panel printed on this page, so you can read the position for yourself before you buy. If fragrance components are something you avoid, this shampoo is not the one.
What else is on the list besides Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract?
Dipotassium Glycyrrhizate, Caffeine and Menthol. The order they are printed in on this shampoo's panel is the order on the box, so you can see where Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract sits relative to them. Further down the same panel: Niacinamide, Salicylic Acid and Biotin.

Worth knowing
- Patch test this shampoo on a small area and wait a day before using it more widely, especially with Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Extract on the list.
- This list names Fragrance and Parfum, so skip it if fragrance components are something you avoid.
- Citric Acid and Salicylic Acid on this list makes this shampoo an exfoliating step, so do not stack it with another one on the same night.

Niacinamide helps reduce the appearance of pores in a few ways. By strengthening the skin barrier and improving elasticity, pores appear less noticeable and more even.
