Harness the power of seaweed
for fresh, radiant skin

Moisturizing is the key to beautiful skin. When we hear the word 'moisturizing,' we often think it means 'adding a lot of moisture to the skin.' While this may hydrate the skin temporarily, it can lead to dryness over time. True moisturizing involves creating the right environment to support the skin’s natural moisture-retaining barrier.

Fucoidan is your ultimate solution for long-lasting skin hydration.
Fucoidan’s natural slimy component, which protects seaweed, is believed to prevent skin from drying out and aid in wound protection.

In fact, a moisturizing test of fucoidan derived from mekabu showed that its water retention rate after 6 hours was more than twice as high as that of hyaluronic acid.

Fucoidan’s strong barrier function enhances the skin’s ability to retain moisture, making it a standout in the field of skincare.
