What Are Microalgae and Why Are They Good for My Skin?
248 days ago
By Omorovicza
Microalgae, often referred to as a nature's powerhouse, have emerged as a key ingredient in skincare formulations, promising a wide range of benefits for the skin.
These microscopic organisms, abundant in marine and freshwater environments, have garnered attention for their ability to thrive in diverse conditions and their rich nutrient profile. But what exactly are microalgae, and why are they so good for our skin?
Understanding Microalgae
Microalgae are single-celled organisms that harness energy through photosynthesis, much like plants. They may be microscopically small, but they pack a punch when it comes to nutritional value. Rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and essential fatty acids, microalgae boast a wide array of skin-loving properties. Their benefits range from combating oxidative stress to promoting cellular regeneration.
Microalgae in Skincare
One of the standout features of microalgae is their ability to shield the skin from environmental aggressors and internal stressors.
Let's delve into some of the key types of microalgae and their specific contributions to skincare...
Types of Microalgae & Their Skin Benefits
Amber Microalgae
This variety serves as a smart melanin modulator, targeting hyperpigmentation and age spots with precision. By regulating melanin production only where it's irregular, it helps brighten skin tone and reduce the appearance of age spots, without causing overall lightening.
Bioactive Microalgae
Bioactive microalgae shield skin from the damaging effects of excess cortisol (stress), restoring the natural circadian rhythm and allowing for optimal nighttime repair, while reducing visible signs of stress and fatigue.
Mediterranean Microalgae
Functioning as an ideal daytime retinol partner, Mediterranean microalgae complement the effects of retinol by selectively binding to deeper retinol receptors. This targeted action reduces the depth of wrinkles, while visibly firming and tightening the skin for a youthful appearance.
Icelandic Microalgae
Sourced sustainably from the Arctic, Icelandic microalgae offers comprehensive skin rejuvenation benefits. By preventing the activity of collagen and elastin-degrading enzymes, it helps maintain skin's structural integrity, promoting firmness and elasticity. Additionally, it stimulates collagen synthesis and cell renewal, contributing to a more youthful complexion.
Microalgae Algaktiv Urban SKN
In urban environments, where pollution poses a constant threat to skin health, this microalgae variant comes to the rescue. By forming a protective barrier against environmental pollutants and boosting filaggrin production, it strengthens the skin's natural defences, soothes irritation, and reduces redness.
Microalgae Algaktiv Zen
This blend of microalgae offers a holistic solution for the effects of chronic stress, sleep deprivation, and fatigue. By restoring skin's circadian rhythm and shielding it from internal stress signals, it helps mitigate the visible signs of stress and fatigue, promoting a more balanced and rejuvenated complexion.
