Kappaphycus Alvarezii Extract is an extract derived from red algae. It is believed to limit the shortening of telomeres, which are protective tips at the end of DNA strands. By doing so, it may maintain skin cell longevity and delay the skin aging process. It is also known for its skin conditioning properties, helping to maintain the skin's natural moisture balance and improving its overall appearance. Algae extracts are considered to be multi-talents with many interesting properties for cosmetics. Depending on their genus and origin, they contain lipids, proteins, vitamins, different ingredients with antibacterial effect and a high proportion of minerals. They have a revitalising and re-mineralising effect but can also stimulate the blood circulation. Another positive side effect: algae extracts boost the cell renewal.

In-vitro tests showed that 0.5% Telesomyl on pre-senescence human fibroblasts reduced stress-induced telomeres shortening by 65%. In-vivo tests showed that after 42 days, Telesomyl improved the appearance of the dermal matrix by 30.2%, smoothed the skin’s surface around the crow’s feet area, and improved the perceived age of the panellists by 3 years.

Algae extracts are extremely hygroscopic and correspond partly even to the different moisturisation components of the skin. In addition, they render the skin smooth and supple and are, therefore, often used as humectant substances in face toners and in peelings. In cosmetics mainly sea algae are used, whereas fresh water algae play a major role in nutrition.
