    Using the Power of Nature to Stop Photo-Aging and Reveal Firmer, Smoother Skin

    Using the Power of Nature to Stop Photo-Aging and Reveal Firmer, Smoother Skin

    July 17, 2023

    With so many skincare brands packing their products with chemicals and synthetics disguised as healthy and effective ways to bring your skin back to life, it’s easy to lose sight of the fact that nature gives us everything we need for miraculously beautiful skin. In fact, there’s one natural component that truly is a skincare miracle – one that seems to perfectly guards against the damage done by UVA rays, puts a halt to photo-aging, and in the process reveals firmer, smoother skin.

    That’s why we’re going to take a look at everything you need to know about the amazing benefits of red algae in skincare, from what it can do for your complexion to how to use the natural powerhouse on a daily basis and what other skincare ingredients can take the affects you achieve to the next level.

    What can red algae do for your skin?

    The reason that red algae should play an important role in your skincare routine is simple, it provides unique mycosporine-like amino acids, known as MAAs, that are the most powerful UV absorbing-substances known to nature.

    That’s because the specific red algae we’re talking about – Porphyra (Porphyra umbilicalis)–is an organism that lives in shallow water or on the beach, where it is exposed to extreme UV radiation. Because of this, the algae has been forced to develop its own level of extreme UV protection, those incredible amino acids that absorb maximally at 335 nm with a molar absorption coefficient of 45,000.

    And when you use red algae in your skincare, these amino acids work to absorb solar energy and help guard your skin against the UVA rays that are one of the leading factors for visible aging. This helps to keep your skin, fresh and youthful, reduce the appearance of age spots, and work to prevent fine lines and wrinkles.

    Just as important is the fact that the amino acids found in red algae provide a natural, toxin-free, safe UVA protection for everyday use. This means that you can feel good about what you are using on your skin, and use products with red algea to support SPF functions in natural sunscreen products.

    Other skin-beautifying benefits of red algae

    UV protection is also not the only benefit red algae can deliver for your skin.

    #1 – Antioxidant defense

    Red algae is also a turbo-charged antioxidant. This free radical scavenging power wrapped up in the carotenoid helps to protect skin cells against oxidation due to environmental stressors.

    #2 – Skin nourishment

    And since red algae boasts a host of beneficial compounds including polysaccharides, proteins, lipids, pigments, and vitamins, it also works to nourish and feed your cells for the ultimate in healthy skin.

    #3 - Hydration and plumping

    Red algae also supplies deep down hydration where skin cells need it most thanks to its pulpy texture which gives it the ability to store and lock in high levels of moisture. In your skincare products, this works to draw water from your skin’s surface to your deeper cells to plump, lift, and firm. That plumping action also works to diminish and smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, as well as balance your skin.

    #4 – Skin brightening

    Because red algae is also rich in Vitamin C, it even works as a potent skin brightener to revitalize your complexion. This can help you overcome uneven skin tone and reveal radiant, healthy skin. And because Vitamin C acts as a powerful nutrient to fade dark spots, it can also help you reverse the look of sun damage and hyperpigmentation.

    #5 – Wrinkle reducing and firming

    Red algae has also been shown to be extensively anti-aging thanks to its ability to inhibit enzymes that break down the collagen that supports your skin. This allows the algae to boost skin elasticity, protect its natural barrier function, and naturally and dramatically reduce the depth of wrinkles.

    SOL Oxygen Spritz

    With all of these incredible benefits, it’s easy to see why red algae is now considered a premier natural skincare phenomenon. It all suggests that red algae can be effective in cosmetics to support SPF functions alongside using a sunscreen product. And, they’re the reason that red algae is the main ingredient in Knutek’s SOL Oxygen Spritz. 

    Since our SOL Oxygen Spritz is such a versatile product, it easily becomes everyone’s favorite.

    It’s natural and safe to use every day to help prevent the formation of lines and wrinkles by aiming to guard skin against UVA damage. 

    Taking Your Skin to the Next Level  

    Additionally, Knutek’s SOL Oxygen Spritz is enhanced with five other hand-picked ingredients found in nature to leverage up your skin benefits. These include:

    Trehalose

    This soothing plant sugar has hydrating and restorative properties for your skin. Found abundantly in plants and fungi, Trehalose works to bind water molecules to lock them into your skin cells, boosting the plumping action of SOL Oxygen Spritz red algae. As an added benefit, Trehalose even acts as a strong antioxidant, working with the algae to guard against free radical damage and photo-aging.

    Glycerin

    A natural skin-conditioner from plant oil, glycerin helps keep your skin hydrated, soft and supple. It also guards and protects your skin from harmful environmental aggressors, while improving its texture.

    Tea Tree Oil

    Tea tree oils acts quickly to calm, freshen and condition your skin. These helps to easer redness, ward off dark marks due to acne and leave you with a smooth, clear, healthy complexion.

    MSM Organic Sulfur

    The Organic Sulfur from MSM found in SOL Oxygen Spritz provides a willing sulfur donor to the keratin that keeps your skin firm and smooth. This strengthens the vital protein, while helping to fill in fine lines and wrinkles.
