Seaweed skin care. What do skin care, seaweed and sheep have in common?

Skin care is a massive worldwide business turning over billions of dollars. So you’d think that cutting edge technology would be producing the best skin care products. However nothing is further from the truth. In fact age old skin care remedies like seaweed  and sheep are instead at the skin care cutting edge.

What does seaweed have to do with skin care I hear you ask? Lots actually. There is a skin care seaweed link going back centuries, and there are excellent seaweed skin care products available that work better than those cutting edge chemicals and creams. Well so called cutting edge products anyway.

For centuries Japanese women have known about the benefits of seaweed to great skin care. Even today Japanese women have great skin. They have few wrinkles, well moisturized healthy skin free of so many of the skin conditions that bedevil women in the US like skin sagging, lines and wrinkles and age spots.

And it’s no coincidence that a Japanese seaweed called Phytessence Wakame is a big part of it. For centuries the Japanese have eaten Phytessence Wakame, and it has been known for being beneficial to Japanese skin care for all that time. It is a huge part of the Japanese diet, both fresh and dried.

Why would a seaweed be good for your skin? Science has tried to find the answer to that question, and has found out that Phytessence Wakame is indeed good for promoting great skin health, and as a result there are now some excellent seaweed extract skin care products available.

The reasons are these. Phytessence Wakame has ingredients in it that help promote skin elasticity. It has a wide range of vitamins and minerals like calcium and potassium that are essential to skin health.

But the real reason is that Phytessence Wakame helps inhibit the actions of an enzyme in our skin. That enzyme, called hyaluronidase, leads to a loss of effective collagen and elastin, 2 skin proteins essential for maintining skin elasticity. The actions of the ingredients of Phytessence Wakame help stop the actions of hyaluronidase, so protect that all important skin collagen and elastin.

Hence the reason for the great skin of Japanese women who eat lots of wakame.

But what do the sheep have to do with it? Well seaweed extract skin care products are excellent products, but the best skin care products also include ingredients that are sourced from the wool of sheep to help further promote the volume of collagen and elastin in the skin.

It’s called Cynergy TK. It’s a patented ingredient that actually stimulates the skin to produce more collagen and elastin. It’s an essential ingredient in the best skin care line on the market that is effective in stimulating the skin to increase it’s own stores of collagen and elastin.

And increasing levels of collagen and elastin in the skin are the holy grail of great skin care. Just about every woman knows that collagen and elastin are important to good skin care. And for that reason the skin care companies put elastin and collagen in the bottles of product.

Putting collagen and elastin into the bottles doesn’t actually increase skin levels of these 2 proteins at all, because it has been known for some time that collagen and elastin molecules are too large to penetrate the skin, so it just remains on the surface.

But putting collagen and elastin in the bottles is very effective at doing one thing. It sells lots of bottles of product because women buy them when they see elastin and collagen listed on the labels.

So if  you’re looking for great skin care, seaweed and sheep, or at least ingredients that come from seaweed and sheep combined into a revolutionary skin care line are the very best in skin care science. It’s high tech combined with nature.After all, don’t they say that  nature always knows best?
