Main Skin concerns improved by Marine Algae
Hydrates dry skin
When used topically, algae has been found to be a better humectant than one of the most popular hydrators of all, hyaluronic acid. A humectant helps to reduce the amount of moisture lost so all the moisture stays in the skin instead of seeping out.
Diminishes the appearance of hyperpigmentation
Marine Algae is a non-acid option to diminish the appearance of dark spots, for an allover even complexion. This is ideal for those with sensitive skin or who prefer to use more natural skin products. This is because Marine Algae is packed with high levels of vitamin C, a natural ingredient famous for its brightening properties.
Rich in Antioxidants
Algae contains antioxidants, amino acids, vitamin B, magnesium, zinc and detoxifying minerals. These properties can help to:
- Clear clogged pores
- Combat oxidative stress (especially that which is induced by UV exposure) and break down UV energy into a form of harmless heat, essentially acting like nature's sunscreen (but should always be used with a SPF cream)
-Neutralise any free radicals and environmental aggressors (e.g. pollution) to protect your skin from damage
- Aid to maintaining s healthy moisture barrier on the surface of the skim
Astaxanthin reduces the appearance of fine lines
This ingredient naturally occurs in algae. This ingredients act like a powerhouse when it comes to maintaining suppleness and reduces the appearance of fine lines. Studies have found it to be:
- 6,000 times stronger than Vitamin C
- 800 times stronger than CoQ10 (Co Enzyme Q10 is a popular anti aging ingredients used by some big brands such as Nivea)
- 550 times stronger than Green Tea catechins (Catechin is the natural antioxidant found in Green Tea that help prevent cell damage)
