Asparagopsis Armata Extract

Overview

Asparagopsis armata is a species of red algae that grows in the sea. Similarly to other algae used in skincare, Asparagopsis armata extract has film-forming properties which are due to the presence of special polysaccharides (present in most algae). The extract is also rich in proteins and minerals.
