Description
Infinity Ingredients is the UK Distributor of BOREALG TG from Odycea
BOREALG TG is derived from Laminaria hyperborea, an organic brown seaweed known as the "Queen of Longevity." Thriving during harsh winter storms and heavy waves, this species has adapted to survive using a remarkable regenerative system. While most Laminaria live for only three years, the Queen survives for 10-30. It is the only seaweed that completely regenerates its blade every spring; as a new blade develops underneath, the old one sheds in the spring/ early summer therefore keeping the plant’s metabolic activity high year-round. This organic alga grows in Brittany (France) and the extraction process uses Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO) Mass Balance grade.
BOREALG TG is a liposoluble active ingredient composed of a pool of lipidic and antioxidant molecules (such as fucosterol) coming from the leathery kelp of the brown seaweed, Laminaria hyperborea. BOREALG re-stimulates the epidermal turnover rate that tends slow as we age. BOREALG TG re-activates the skin’s natural regeneration process and reduces redness thanks to a synergistic action on mitochondrial activity, leptin receptors, Fatty-Acid-Binding Protein 3 (FABP3) as well as Cyclin D1 (CCN D1).
BOREALG TG noticeably improves skin appearance and accelerates wound healing. Its soothing properties make it ideal for post-treatment care, such as recovery after peels, laser or tattoos, irritated skin to calm redness, dryness, and discomfort from sunburn or sensitivity and for barrier protection as BOREALG TG It significantly reduces TEWL therefore reinforcing the skin’s barrier against daily aggressions.
In Hair Care, BOREALG TG revitalises the scalp and hair follicles, helping to stimulate growth while improving overall texture and manageability.
