Algae Slim Complex - Marine Synergy for Remodeling, Toning, and Detoxification

This complex brings together the properties of five algae selected for their richness in minerals, trace elements, and amino acids: Fucus, Nori, Enteromorpha, Wakame, and Lithothamnium. They act synergistically to stimulate local metabolism, promote lymphatic drainage, and remineralize the skin, making it an indispensable ingredient in body remodeling and intensive care treatments.

Although it is a cosmetic product for topical application, people with severe thyroid conditions should consult a doctor before using intensive treatments on large areas of the body, due to the natural iodine content in Fucus algae.
