Kelp, for a radiant glow.
This type of algae, which thrives in the cool waters of the Pacific, is a true all-rounder when it comes to caring for our skin. Kelp contains a wealth of minerals, vitamins, fibre and trace elements that not only benefit our body, but also our skin.
Kelp is a brown algae and belongs to the seaweed family and is mainly found in the North Pacific region. Kelp forms entire underwater forests that create a breathtaking landscape. The algae has a greenish-brown colour and can reach a length of up to 60 metres. Kelp, along with other marine algae, also play a hugely important role in our environment. They are involved in almost 50% of the conversion of carbon dioxide to oxygen.
The brown algae is a true nutrient supplier and contains iodine, algal acid, calcium, copper, sodium, sulphur, vitamins A, B1, B3, B5, B6, B9, B12, C and E as well as zinc. The effects of kelp on our skin are amazing and offer numerous benefits for a radiant appearance. Kelp nourishes our skin in a natural way and ensures healthy and supple skin.
Brown algae is also known to have a high antioxidant effect, which is caused by vitamins C and E. These protect the skin from free radicals and prevent premature ageing and wrinkling. These protect the skin from free radicals and prevent premature skin ageing and wrinkles. The brown algae also stimulate the production of collagen, which ensures a firm skin structure. Kelp is therefore a natural anti-ageing booster that can slow down skin ageing in a natural way.

Overall, brown algae are a valuable part of any skincare routine for radiant, fresh skin that feels silky smooth.
