The skincare savior with a sea of beauty benefits 

When it comes to skincare ingredients, it’s not always a “one fits all” approach. In fact, finding products that suit your skin type without causing irritation can sometimes feel like a minefield. 

That’s why discovering Marine Algae might just feel like a breath of fresh (sea) air. It’s safe for all skin types, and it can address a wide range of beauty woes. And even though its use in skincare is not exactly new (it’s been the hero ingredient in La Mer’s cult-beloved formula since the sixties), the benefits aren’t as well documented as some other skincare stars. 

Here, we give you a primer into four key benefits of this mermaid-approved beauty hero.

Benefit 1: Protein

Marine Algae is loaded with Amino Acids, and Amino Acids are the building blocks of proteins. They help maintain skin's hydration, texture, resilience, and in turn create a plumper, healthier complexion while simultaneously slowing down the signs of aging.

Benefit 2: Moisture 

Marine Algae is packed with humectants that draw in moisture incredibly well – offering the ability to condition the skin and maximize dewiness. It’s also jammed with famously-hydrating Vitamin E for an added boost of moisture.

Benefit 3: Antioxidants 

Marine Algae is rich in antioxidants, including Vitamin B and C, which helps to combat pigmentation, stimulate collagen, brighten dull skin, and protect against free radicals that cause premature aging.

Benefit 4: Minerals 

Marine Algae is filled with the goodness of Omega, Zinc, and Magnesium. All these minerals contribute to a healthier epidermal barrier, protecting from environmental aggressors and soothing any inflammation of the skin.
