Cranberry Algae Mask

Active ingredients

• Alginate – has a significant cosmetic significance because it gives the so-called occlusion effect. This means that it creates a “film” on the skin, which reduces TEWL (Transepidermal Water Loss). It contributes to the expansion of skin pores and better penetration of active substances. It has a rejuvenating, immunostimulating, moisturising and regenerating effect, stimulates metabolism, removes fat deposits and improves circulation.
• Cranberry – contains vitamins: A, C and B vitamins, iron, calcium, magnesium, phosphorus and iodine, as well as carbohydrates, anti-cyanates, flavonoids (which help to keep the skin young and smooth for longer) and tannin. It significantly improves the functioning and condition of the skin.

– zinc salts (gluconate and zinc sulphate) effectively treat inflammatory acne. They are characterized by bacteriostatic activity against Propionibacterium acnes. Zinc participates in the production of prostaglandins, substances regulating, among others, the secretory functions of the skin, responsible for the amount of sebum produced. It reduces the amount of accumulated sebum, restores the skin’s natural pH, and tightens excessively dilated pores. It soothes inflammation and reduces the tendency to form blackheads.
