Key Ingredients
HYPNEA MUSCIFOMIS EXTRACT, GELIDIELA ACEROSA
EXTRACT, AND SARGASSUM FILIPENDULA EXTRACT
• from the fomilies of red and brown sea algae
• carefully selected based on their content of cosmetically active constituents, which were then extracted and preserved by a proprietary process
• ensure proper skin hydration and deliver a wealth of nutrients (amino acids, proteins, minerals, and vitamins) to the skin support the cell renewal process
• Background: Marine algae exist in great abundance in oceans and freshwater lakes. The 25,000 species known to man are grouped into four families: red, brown, blue or green algae. Marine algae are the most basic of organisms, yet they are one of the richest natural R sources of minerals, vitamins, amino acids and trace elements.
Active levels of these nutrients can vary depending on species, location, ocean salinity, season, and sea currents. Furthermore, extraction processes designed to isolate individual elements can easily destroy other nutrients found in algae. SkinCeuticals marine
algae are harvested off the coast of Brazil, one of the few non-polluted harvesting sites where algae are known to contain some of the highest levels of active constituents. Through a proprietary extraction process, we ensure that peak levels of active nutrients F are preserved. Detailed scientific information available on request
