Astaxanthin Oil: The red power that conquers the world beauty industry and leader in anti-aging of skin.

I. Tracing Its Roots: Astaxanthin Oil - Nature's Premier Antioxidant

Ever thought about what gives salmon its pink hue and flamingos its vivid red feathers? It's astaxanthin. It is a natural ketocarotenoid, mostly obtained from Haematococcus pluvialis. Haematococcus pluvialis is a small freshwater microalga.

The unique structure of astaxanthin makes it a more powerful antioxidant in nature. Studies have revealed that it can be 6,000 times stronger compared to vitamin C, 1,000 times stronger compared to vitamin E, and 800 times superior compared to Coenzyme Q10, which earns it the name Super vitamin E. The structure enables it to pass between cells, eliminate harmful reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as singlet oxygen and hydroxyl radicals, and prevent skin damage.

Healing and soothing sensitive skin.

Astaxanthin can prevent your skin from reacting to certain weather situations or air pollution that causes it to redden, swell, or itch. It inhibits the NF-κB pathway, which leads to the decrease of IL-6 and TNF-á production by your body.

Invisible Sun Protection: Astaxanthin works as an invisible sunblock on your skin. It eliminates free radicals that are created by UV radiation and thus saves your DNA and reduces sunburned cells.

Multi-Functional Skincare Advantage

Astaxanthin possesses antioxidant, anti-aging, and repairing properties, as well as sun protective properties. It is a general one solution for people who hate multiple skin products to apply. It is also excellent in anti-aging, skin-brightening, skin-soothing, and other similar niche solutions.

Uses & Formulations: Astaxanthin Oil in Cosmetics

Common Formats: Fits Any Skincare Routine

The deep-red colour of astaxanthin makes it possible to mix it with skincare products of any type. The percentage in the astaxanthin range of serums, creams and eye-creams is 0.5% to 2% and 1% to 3% and 0.3% to 1%. Even the sheet mask serum contains it. High concentrations (e.g. 3% astaxanthin oil mixed with 5% hyaluronic acid) are used in luxury anti-ageing products because they are absorbed well and give visible results.

Oil astaxanthin is compatible with other ingredients. To get a powerful mixture, you can use it with hyaluronic acid (to increase the level of hydration), ceramides (to restore the skin barrier), or niacinamide (to make the skin brighter). All these ingredients are particularly effective in conjunction with powerful ingredients. They help to create antioxidant protection, repair and improve skin radiance.

One of the anti-aging serums of the brand contains 1.5% of astaxanthin oil, 2% of hyaluronic acid and 1% of niacinamide. According to clinical trials, after four weeks of application of the product, the level of skin radiance in the users increased by 35%, and the number of fine wrinkles decreased by 24%.

Safety & Skin Compatibility: A Gentle Natural Guardian

This oil is extracted natural process, as it does not require organic solvents. This means that there is no hazardous waste left behind. It is also very pure- more than 95 percent- as analyses with HPLC demonstrate.

Skin irritation tests and acute toxicity tests (LD50 > 5,000 mg/kg) both indicate that it does not cause sensitivities. The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) recommends a maximum oral dose of 2.38 mg of astaxanthin per day, but the topical concentration used in cosmetics (0.1%-3%) is much lower than this amount, making it safe for daily application.

2. Skin Type Versatility: Works for Everyone

Astaxanthin oil is suitable for all skin types: dried-out skin (requires moisture and restoration), oily skin (requires oil regulation and anti-inflammation), combination skin (requires harmony), and sensitive skin (requires soothing). It is wise to conduct a fast patch test first - particularly if you are allergic to shellfish.

The astaxanthin oil possesses three big advantages over the artificial antioxidants, BHT and BHA. It occurs naturally and has an amazing power (an ORAC value of 15,000-19,000 mol TE/g), and it is also stable (the POV value is below 10 meq/kg after 6 months at 40℃).

It also does not cause wastage: The Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae can be cultivated in a cycle, which is a perfect way of synchronizing the beauty industry.
