THALASSIOSIRA PSEUDONANA FERMENT FILTRATE

Description

Thalassiosira pseudonana ferment filtrate is a cutting-edge skincare ingredient derived from marine microalgae. This unicellular diatom species, found in oceans worldwide, is cultivated in controlled environments and fermented to produce a nutrient-rich extract. The filtrate contains a complex blend of bioactive compounds, including polysaccharides, proteins, amino acids, and trace minerals.

The ingredient exhibits potent antioxidant properties, helping to neutralize free radicals and protect skin cells from oxidative stress. It also demonstrates significant moisturizing capabilities, enhancing skin hydration and improving barrier function. Research indicates that Thalassiosira pseudonana ferment filtrate may stimulate collagen production, potentially reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Furthermore, this marine-derived ingredient has shown promise in soothing sensitive skin and reducing inflammation. Its unique composition supports overall skin health and may contribute to a more balanced microbiome. In formulations, Thalassiosira pseudonana ferment filtrate is typically used at concentrations between 1-5%, depending on the desired effect and product type. It is compatible with a wide range of cosmetic ingredients and suitable for various skincare applications, from serums to moisturizers.
