ASTAXANTHIN
Astaxanthin, which is extracted from the green microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis, is one of the most powerful antioxidants of all. It is responsible for giving numerous types of fruit and vegetables as well as flamingos and salmon their characteristic colouring. But its true beauty secret lies in its ability to effectively combat the signs of ageing.
As a powerful fat-soluble antioxidant, astaxanthin is many times more effective than the well-known vitamin E. It not only increases skin hydration and improves moisture retention, but also ensures increased elasticity. Your skin becomes noticeably smoother and fine lines and wrinkles are visibly reduced.
But that’s not all! Astaxanthin also has natural UV-blocking properties, which means it protects your skin from sun-related damage such as dark spots. At the same time, it neutralises several free radicals at once, protecting your skin from oxidation, damage and inflammation.
Another impressive property of astaxanthin is its proven ability to increase blood flow. This leads to increased cell turnover, improved elasticity and increased water retention in the skin. Your skin will glow, will be more radiant and youthful!
