Unlocking the Rare Secrets of Marine Skincare

In the vast ocean world, the split-leaf kelp grows quietly. This brown algae belonging to the Sargassum genus is a natural treasure trove of active compounds. The active peptides extracted from split-leaf kelp using cutting-edge biotechnological enzymatic hydrolysis are emerging as a new favourite in the cosmetics ingredient industry.

Multi-functional Benefits, Restoring Skin Ecology

1. Powerful Antioxidant Properties: Split-leaf kelp active peptides contain a unique amino acid sequence with a free radical scavenging rate of up to 85%. When the skin is exposed to oxidative stress from UV rays and pollution, these peptides act like brave guardians, quickly neutralising free radicals, effectively inhibiting lipid peroxidation reactions, reducing wrinkle formation, and delaying skin ageing. Long-term use can increase skin elasticity by 30%.

2. Exceptional Moisturising and Hydration: The unique molecular structure of the active peptides allows them to bind 200 times their weight in water, forming an invisible moisturising barrier on the skin's surface to lock in hydration. Tests show that after 24 hours of using skincare products containing these active peptides, the moisture content in the skin's stratum corneum remains at a high level, increasing by 40%, effectively alleviating dryness and tightness, keeping the skin hydrated and plump at all times.

3. Gentle soothing and repair: For sensitive skin, it reduces the release of inflammatory factor IL-6 by 70%, soothing skin discomfort and repairing damaged skin barriers. Clinical trials show that after four weeks of continuous use, redness and itching in sensitive skin are significantly improved, with a repair rate of 65%.

Wide compatibility, empowering diverse formulations

Split-leaf horsetail active peptides demonstrate exceptional compatibility in cosmetic formulations. Adding 1%–3% to serums enhances anti-ageing and moisturising effects; incorporating it into lotions and creams boosts hydration and soothing properties; and including it in mask formulations enhances the absorption of other nutrients and strengthens skin repair capabilities. It can also synergise with popular ingredients like hyaluronic acid and ceramides to create more powerful skincare formulations.
