Astaxanthin = Cellular UV Defense

Astaxanthin is a powerful carotenoid antioxidant found in the algae that our colorful friends including flamingos, salmon and lobster feast upon- it gives them their signature hue AND acts as a natural SPF. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

So, what can it do for our skin? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
No, it won't turn your skin pink and it won't replace your SPF. HOWEVER, it can inhibit UV- induced free radical damage and studies have shown that Astaxanthin improves skin elasticity and the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

According to a 2007 scientific study, it is known to be 6000x more potent than vitamin C and also improves the moisture content in the skin.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

We took a hint from Mother Nature and included it in our Eye Treatment Roller- yes, that is why the gel-crème is that flamingo tone. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Bonus, it acts as a color- corrector to cancel out the purple/blue undertones that contribute to dark circles. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

Fancy, huh?
