SEA HEATHER®
SEA HEATHER® is a marine agent that works through the both pathways of the lipid peroxidation: the non enzymatic pathway linked to the action of reactive oxygen species and the enzymatic pathway related to anti inflammation activity. SEA HEATHER® is a patented mixture of several typical brown Mediterranean seaweeds belonging to the order Cystoseira forming dense populations grouped into large belts at wave-exposed places and unpolluted areas. It acts as an efficient radical scavenger through the both pathways of the lipid peroxidation with action on the non enzymatic pathway related to cellular lysis due to several major reactive oxygen species and action on the enzymatic pathway linked to anti inflammation activity. In addition SEA HEATHER® protects DNA against superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide and guarantees full cell membrane functionality after chemical irritation. Clinical studies confirm the reduction of stinging sensations. This makes SEA HEATHER® an excellent ingredient recommended for products to reduce irritation and improve the comfort of reactive and sensitive skins. It is China compliant

ASTAPLANCTON® G8
ASTAPLANCTON® G8 is a protective agent prepared from the green vegetative cells of Haematococcus pluvialis It boosts skin metabolism and captures both reactive oxygen and reactive carbonyl species to protect against oxidative stress. In complement with ASTAPLANCTON®HA, it forms a highly potent protective duo-system for high performance antioxidant protection and combat accelerated skin aging. This product is suitable for skin care applications such as protective products and anti-aging products. It is China compliant.
ASTAPLANCTON® HA
ASTAPLANCTON® HA is a potent antioxidant protector prepared from red stage of Haematococcus pluvialis cultured under inductive high light intensity to induce astaxanthin synthesis. It protects against UVA-UVB. It works as an efficient protector against UV damage for delaying skin photoaeing. In association with ASTAPLANCTON® G8, the protective performance increases. Preservative free and China compliant.
BRONZ'ALG®
BRONZ'ALG® is a patented combination of the alga Bifurcaria bifurcata with acetyl-tyrosine. It facilitates melanin synthesis while protecting against UVA/UVB-induced damage. It accelerates tanning and revives dull skin. Bifurcaria bifurcata contains interesting chemicals, notably several oligomers of phloroglucinol, known for their biological properties. BRONZ'ALG® helps to regulate the major genes of melanogenesis pathways, notably MITF factor and melanogenic enzymes TYR and TYRP-1 implicated in melanin formation, all that makes more compelling its pro-pigmenting capability. It facilitates the melanin synthesis in melanocytes and improves the interactions melanocytes-keratinocytes. In addition, it promotes skin pigmentation independently to sun exposure. According to clinical studies, BRONZ'ALG® accelerates tanning and revives dull skin for a healthy glowing complexion. It guarantees potent skin protection against free radicals and both UVA and UVB radiations, that helps maintain a harmonious tan and improve the skin’s own natural UV protection. This product is ideal for use in tanning products, sun care, and daily skin care applications.
CAPHIRA®
CAPHIRA® is a smart natural patented combination of the red alga Kappaphycus alvarezzi, supplemented with sea water and vegetable organic glycerin. Its well-balanced composition (rich content in magnesium, iron and zinc) will help fighting mineral deficiencies known to cause problems to hair growth and scalp vitality. It is revealed as a powerful global protector of the three parts of hair: the follicle, the fiber and the scalp to consolidate the hair’s integrity.
