Exploring the potential of using algae in cosmetics.

Abstract in brief

• Microalgae are increasingly being explored for skincare benefits like anti-aging, skin whitening, and treating pigmentation issues, highlighting their potential beyond traditional uses.
• Despite their current use in some moisturizing and thickening products, algae are still underutilized as the main active ingredients in cosmetics, mainly due to limited understanding of their powerful skin benefits.
• The article aims to combine research on algae's effects on skin health to identify new, practical ways to incorporate algae into cosmetic products for better skin rejuvenation and treatment.]
