SACRAN
The exclusive secret of our formulas
sacran
unique properties
Sacran, a rare polysaccharide extracted from the blue-green waters of Japan, is one of the most potent hydrating ingredients known to skincare science. Its unique structure allows it to retain up to five times more water than hyaluronic acid, providing exceptional hydration to the deepest layers of the skin. In addition to retaining moisture, Sacran forms a protective barrier on the skin's surface, reducing transepidermal water loss (TEWL) and strengthening the skin's natural defenses against environmental factors.
What is Aphanothece sacrum?
It is an ancient microalgae that grows in highly controlled natural environments and stands out for its extremely high water retention capacity and its structure rich in polysaccharides, especially Sacran , a natural biopolymer with exceptional moisturizing, soothing and protective properties.
