Science & Benefits
Pelvetia Canaliculata is a brown seaweed that lives at the very top of the shoreline, spending long periods exposed to air and UV stress. It has evolved unique mechanisms to retain water during low tide. In topical formulas, it transfers these moisture-retention properties to the human skin barrier, significantly increasing local hydration levels. It is also rich in specific amino acids that support the skin's Natural Moisturizing Factor (NMF). With a low comedogenic risk of 1, it is a 'bulletproof' marine botanical for providing long-lasting, deep hydration to skin that is prone to environmental dehydration.
