EPISNOW/SNOW ALGAE POWDER

Derived from extremophile algae that thrive under the intense UV radiation and nutrient-scarce conditions of snowy mountain peaks, EpiSnow™ enhances the skin’s resilience and helps to turn back the aging clock by targeting 7 hallmarks of aging. Snow algae are single-cell algae with the unique ability to actively live at a temperature of approximately 0°C. Snow algae grow in areas where there is either an Alpine or polar climate in which there is snow all year round (permanent snow). The normally green algae adapt to the extreme environmental conditions: When the UV radiation is increased in early summer the algae turn red as they produce considerably more carotenoid pigments than chlorophyll ones. The production of other secondary metabolites such as biopolymers, antifreeze glycoproteins (AFGPs), stress modifiers and osmotically active amino acids and sugars also help these extremophile algae to survive in their habitat.
