Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract, also known as Saccharina Japonica Extract, is a skincare ingredient derived from kelp. It is known for its soothing, hydrating, and anti-aging properties. It helps strengthen the skin's barrier, protect against environmental stressors, and combat signs of aging. It is particularly beneficial for sensitive skin. Epseama, an active ingredient derived from Laminaria japonica, targets a long non-coding RNA to fight the three main causes of aging: photoaging, chronoaging, and inflammaging.
Anti-Aging: Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract contains antioxidants that help combat signs of aging and improve skin's overall appearance. Soothing: It has calming properties that help soothe and reduce skin irritation. Barrier Reinforcement: It helps reinforce the skin's barrier, protecting it from environmental stressors and improving its ability to retain moisture. Reduces wrinkles and roughness: Epseama manages to reduce difficult-to-remove nasolabial wrinkles by 19% in volume and 10% in roughness in only one month. Reduces age spots: Epseama also reduces pigmented spots and improves skin hydration. Boosts extracellular matrix: Epseama increases the production of collagen IV, VII, and XVII, which are key components of the dermis-epidermis junction, helping to improve skin's elasticity and firmness.
Sensitive Skin: Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract is particularly suitable for those with sensitive skin, as it helps strengthen the skin's barrier and reduce the effects of environmental aggressors.

Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract's lipid content is believed to contribute to its barrier-reinforcing properties. It also improves the content of skin's surface lipids, further strengthening the barrier. Epseama boosts the expression of nc886, a long non-coding RNA which expression decreases dramatically with age in women after 40-years-old. By boosting nc886, Epseama inhibits the production of MMP-9, a collagenase that degrades collagen IV, and increases the production of collagen IV, VII and XVII that are key components of the dermis-epidermis junction. As a consequence, Epseama helps the skin recover its resistance and elasticity.
