Undaria Pinnatifida, a concentrate of benefits for the body
Marine flora conceals secrets with surprising properties that are scientifically recognised in the field of dermatology. Seaweed is widely used in the formulation of protective, anti-ageing skin care products. In fact, are you familiar with one of them, Undaria Pinnatifida? This seaweed with a rather complicated name is also known as wakame. Often associated with Japanese gastronomy, Undaria Pinnatifida is above all a concentrate of benefits for the body, the skin and our cells. So its use in cosmetics was an obvious choice for us. Let's take a closer look at this amazing algae.
Undaria Pinnatifida
Undaria Pinnatifida is a large, brown seaweed that can grow up to three metres long. Resistant to marine pollution, it grows easily in many environments. It can be found in many maritime and oceanic areas, including the coast of Brittany where our laboratory is located! This resistance to pollution has enabled it to develop numerous cosmetic and medicinal properties.
A plant with unsuspected benefits
The sea fern is a concentrate of fibre and antioxidants. A real marine nugget, it has an anti-wrinkle action thanks to its high protein and vitamin content. Undaria Pinnatifida has excellent skin care properties, especially for mature skin. Its resistance to marine pollution also means it has an anti-pollution action, which is highly effective for detoxifying the skin!
At Algologie, Undaria Pinnatifida is an essential ingredient for our skin. That's why we've incorporated this powerful marine active ingredient into our Algo4 patent, a bio-mimetic complex made up of 4 extremophilic plants (which thrive in extreme conditions) that meet our skin's 4 main needs:
- Porphyridium to oxygenate the skin
- Blue thistle for deep nourishment
- Sea Fennel to stimulate the skin
- Undaria Pinnatifida to protect the skin
Used in our marine cosmetics, Undaria Pinnatifida reduces the presence of age spots on mature skin and its high concentration of trace elements helps to reduce the visible effects of ageing. Perfectly suited to sensitive and demanding skin, it provides genuine protection. Undaria Pinnatifida is also anti-inflammatory, making it the perfect algae for caring for skin that is tired or marked by the years.
