Ulva Glycerin Extract - Plant Extract
Ulva Glycerin Extract - Plant Extract is a 100 % natural, >97.5 % naturalness (ISO 16128), COSMOS-compliant liquid, produced by cold maceration and filtration of Ulva lactuca (sea lettuce) in a glycerin–water base, without preservatives—packaged in stable 20 kg jerricans (turn0search0). Rich in amino acids, proteins, polysaccharides, minerals, and antioxidants, it is easily soluble in water and highly stable (turn0search1). This marine extract delivers intense hydration, revitalization, and firming through its bioactive composition. Studies highlight Ulva’s antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, collagen-boosting, and skin-conditioning properties, making it effective in smoothing, barrier reinforcement, and brightening applications (turn0search1, turn0search5, turn0search6).

Alter Gelijac - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent
Alter Gelijac - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100% natural, plant-based gelling powder extracted from konjac root (glucomannan). It forms translucent, high-viscosity gels with a smooth, sensorial texture—an ideal replacement for synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners. This natural gelling agent delivers clean-label, biodegradable performance and is entirely vegan.
Alter Gelitium - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent
Alter Gelitium - Natural - Plant-Based - Gelling Agent is a 100 % natural, non-ionic plant-based gelling powder obtained via fermentation of the Sclerotium mushroom. This COSMOS-compliant, biodegradable ingredient forms ultra-transparent aqueous gels — ideal for lightweight serums, clear cleansers, and glossy masks. It also functions as a co-emulsifier, stabilizing emulsions by creating a network around oil droplets, effectively replacing synthetic polymers such as carbomers or PEG-based thickeners.
