Summary
The main component of algae masks is Laminaria. This is an extract from brown algae from Phaeophyceae division. Algae have been used in cosmetology for many years. They control three basic functions of skin: nutritive, protective and moisturizing. They restore the skin´s energetic balance, preventing accumulation of toxins. They oxygenate the skin´s cells by accelerating biochemical reactions in cutaneous cells.

Key words: algae, algae masks
