BioFer™ Sugar Kelp
A skin firming ingredient based on fermented and sustainably cultivated sugar kelp (Laminaria Saccharina) from the coast of Maine, USA. Ex-vivo testing showed significant improvement in skin elasticity within 2 hours and sustained improvement for up to 8 hours. In vitro tests validate the results by showing a significant reduction in the regulation of collagen I formation. BioFer Sugar Kelp can be used in skin and hair care.

Knowledge
Traditional emulsifiers, while effective, often require hot processing and can leave a waxy residue on the skin. In contrast, fiber-based emulsifiers are cold-processible, saving time and energy, and offering diverse textures and skin feels. These fibers, sourced from food industry waste, include soluble fibers (like pectin and gums) and insoluble fibers, which are crucial for creating Pickering emulsions that use solid particles to stabilize the oil-water interface.Learn More
