Algin

The Science of Osmotic Lifting and Skin Hydration

Text: Algin, derived from brown seaweed, is a fundamental biopolymer widely used in professional skincare formulations. Its primary scientific value lies in its exceptional water-binding capacity and its ability to form a mineral-rich hydrocolloid gel. Algin serves as a natural delivery system, enhancing the absorption of vitamins and microelements into the deeper layers of the skin.

The biological action of Algin is centered on its powerful detoxifying properties. As an anionic polysaccharide, Algin effectively absorbs impurities and heavy metals from the skin's surface. In professional treatments, Algin provides an immediate "osmotic lifting" effect, helping to firm the facial contours, reduce puffiness, and restore the skin's moisture balance. For skincare experts, Algin is a cornerstone ingredient for achieving visible revitalizing results and strengthening the skin’s protective barrier.
