New Marine Active from Alban Muller

Alban Muller has developed Protectami, an anti-pollution and anti-aging natural marine active ingredient. It is a purified extract of Padina, a brown algae from the Mediterranean Sea, which is preservative-free and stabilized in 100% plant-based glycerin. In vitro test results prove Protectami increased elastin synthesis by reducing enzymatic activity of proteases and elastase. The test demonstrates the increase of cytokeratins and desmosomial proteins. Protectami improves cell communication between keratinocytes, according to Alban Muller.


Protectami’s anti-pollution action is highlighted by an increase of the epidermal proteins which improve skin resistance to pollutants. For a soothed skin, Protectami also reduces skin irritations caused by pollution thanks to its anti-inflammatory action.


According to the company, Protectami stimulates the synthesis of calcium-dependent cell structures of the epidermis responsible for skin barrier strength. It restores cell communication and improves skin elasticity through the dual action of increasing synthesis of elastin protein and LOXL1 enzyme of elastin maturation and by decreasing enzymatic degradation activity of elastase and other proteases.


Beyond its capacity to offer protective skin action, Protectami may also be used in cosmetic products to provide regenerating and remineralizing benefits.
