Snow Algae—the secret of red snow

The active ingredient is based on an extract from an extremophile species of algae which has the ability to survive in regions with permanent snow and glaciers. These masters of survival, which are green in their normal condition, form protecting molecules in phases of stress (not enough food, excessive UV exposure) and turn red. In this phase, the snow algae can be seen with the naked eye in the mountains as “red snow”.

With an innovative technology, the researchers and developers succeeded in cultivating the snow algae in a sustainable manner and to processing them.

Science and research: The key to skin’s longevity

Snow Algae Powder stimulates the longevity gene klotho and activates AMPK, a master switch in the cellular defence system. The klotho protein interferes with the insulin growth factor receptor inducing a calorie restriction mimetic effect. Calorie restriction is the only proven mechanism to prolong lifespan of organism. At skin’s cellular level, Snow Algae Powder improves cellular defences, oxidative stress resistance, cell detoxification and repair by activating these two key longevity factors. In clinical studies, it was proven that Snow Algae Powder improves the dermal/epidermal papillary skin structure. The skin is rejuvenated, toned and regains its elasticity.
