What Exactly Is Micronised Marine Algae?

Here's what you're putting on your skin — and why we love it.

Micronised Marine Algae is derived from nutrient-rich marine plants that are finely milled to enhance their bioavailability and efficacy. This advanced processing retains the algae's potent blend of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, ensuring maximum skin benefit. Known for its exceptional hydrating and rejuvenating properties, Micronised Marine Algae is a staple in luxury skincare, offering a natural solution to enhance skin vitality.

The micro-algae are sourced from pristine marine environments, ensuring purity and potency. This ingredient is celebrated for its high concentration of essential fatty acids, which are crucial for maintaining skin's moisture balance and barrier function. Its antioxidant properties help protect against environmental stressors, making it an ideal choice for holistic skin care.

What Happens When Micronised Marine Algae Touches Your Skin

Understanding the process helps you get better results at home and in the treatment room.

Micronised Marine Algae works by delivering a concentrated dose of marine nutrients directly to the skin, enhancing hydration and promoting cellular regeneration. The micronisation process increases the surface area of the algae particles, ensuring deeper and more efficient penetration into the skin layers. This allows the active compounds to work synergistically, replenishing moisture and repairing the skin's natural barrier.

The ingredient's rich antioxidant profile provides a defence against oxidative stress, which can lead to premature ageing. By neutralising free radicals, Micronised Marine Algae helps maintain skin elasticity and firmness, reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Its anti-inflammatory properties also soothe irritated skin, promoting a calm and balanced complexion.
