Plankton extract is an extract from a mixture of various tiny marine animals, algae, seaweeds, and microscopic organisms jointly called plankton.
There is not much information about the exact composition or properties of this extract, and so we can only really guess. One single patent refers to plankton extract as containing polysaccharides similar to glucosamine. These have moisturizing (humectant) effects.
