Discover the Power of SeaBerry Blue™: The Booster of Skin’s Natural Antioxidant Protection

In our daily lives, our skin faces a relentless barrage of environmental stressors—pollution, ultraviolet (UV) rays, and the blue light emitted from screens. These factors can lead to oxidative damage, which accelerates skin aging and compromises overall skin health. The search for effective solutions to combat these issues has led to the development of innovative ingredients designed to protect and rejuvenate the skin.

Introducing Natura-Tec SeaBerry Blue™, an advanced active ingredient from Natura-Tec. Derived from microalgae, this sustainable ingredient is formulated to boost the skin’s natural antioxidant protection. By integrating SeaBerry Blue™ into cosmetic formulations, we can offer powerful benefits to maintain and enhance skin health.

Understanding the Impact of Environmental Stressors

Our skin acts as a barrier, protecting us from external aggressions. However, daily exposure to pollutants, UV radiation, and blue light can overwhelm this barrier, leading to the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). These free radicals can damage cellular components such as lipids, proteins, and DNA, resulting in premature aging, inflammation, and even skin disorders. Modern lifestyles, which often involve prolonged exposure to artificial light, further disrupt the skin’s natural repair processes, making it crucial to enhance our skin’s defense mechanisms.

Introducing SeaBerry Blue™

Natura-Tec SeaBerry Blue™ is an innovative active ingredient formulated to enhance the skin’s natural antioxidant production. Produced using a patented low-carbon footprint photobioreactor, SeaBerry Blue™ combines Haematococcus Pluvialis extract, rich in astaxanthin, with cranberry seed oil and omega-9 triglycerides. This unique blend offers a powerful boost to the skin’s natural defenses, protecting against oxidative stress and environmental damage.

The Benefits of SeaBerry Blue™ in Cosmetic Formulations

SeaBerry Blue™ strengthens the skin’s ability to produce its own antioxidants through biomimetic pathways, effectively shielding the skin from oxidative damage induced by UV rays and blue light. Here’s how this powerful ingredient works:

Protection Against Oxidative Stress

SeaBerry Blue™ is highly effective in shielding the skin from oxidative stress, particularly the kind generated by UV and blue light exposure. Studies show that skin explants treated with SeaBerry Blue™ at a 2% concentration demonstrated a significant increase in antioxidant levels. Specifically, antioxidant production increased by 42% under UVA and UVB stress and by 28% under blue light stress. This indicates a substantial enhancement in the skin’s ability to combat oxidative damage.

Boosting Natural Antioxidant Production

One of the standout features of SeaBerry Blue™ is its ability to amplify the skin’s innate capacity to produce antioxidants. Utilizing biomimetic pathways, this ingredient mimics the skin’s natural processes, resulting in a more efficient and robust antioxidant response. This boost in endogenous antioxidant production helps the skin defend itself more effectively against external aggressors.

Natura-tec SeaBerry Blue™ is able to increase the physiological production of antioxidant by the skin, both under UV (A+B) and Blue light.

By boosting the natural skin capacity to produce antioxidants through biomimetic pathways, Natura-Tec SeaBerry Blue™ is able to protect the skin from oxidative damages induced by external aggressions, such as UV and blue light.

Preventing Skin Aging

Oxidative stress is a major contributor to premature skin aging. By protecting the skin from oxidative damage and enhancing its natural defense mechanisms, SeaBerry Blue™ helps prevent the signs of aging. This includes reducing the formation of fine lines, wrinkles, and other age-related changes in the skin. The ingredient works through biomimetic pathways to ensure that the skin’s repair and protection processes function optimally.

Reestablishing a Normal Repair Cycle

Modern lifestyles, characterized by prolonged exposure to artificial light and reduced natural light, can disrupt the skin’s natural circadian rhythm. This disturbance can impair the skin’s ability to repair itself effectively. SeaBerry Blue™ supports the reestablishment of a normal biological repair cycle, ensuring that the skin can recover from daily stressors and maintain its health and vitality.

Origin and Sustainable Production

Natura-Tec SeaBerry Blue™ is produced using a patented closed-circuit low carbon footprint photobioreactor, ensuring consistent quality and purity while maintaining environmental compliance. This ingredient is derived from an upcycling process utilizing cranberry seeds, a by-product of cranberry juice production. The primary components include Triolein, Vaccinium Macrocarpon Seed Oil, and Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract, the latter being the richest natural source of astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant.
