Enteromorpha Compressa Extract (Green Seaweed Extract)

Enteromorpha Compressa Extract is a marine botanical ingredient derived from Enteromorpha compressa (a green seaweed, often referenced within the Ulva group) and used in cosmetic formulations for its hydration-support, skin-conditioning, and protective antioxidant profile. Naturally containing seaweed-associated polysaccharides, minerals, and bioactive microcomponents (composition varies with harvest conditions and extraction method), it helps promote a smoother, more comfortable skin feel and supports a refreshed, healthy-looking appearance. The extract is frequently positioned in “marine hydration,” “anti-pollution,” and revitalizing concepts, where it can aid moisture retention and help reduce the look of stress-related dullness. Typical applications include facial serums, creams, gels, masks, and after-sun products, as well as body care and scalp formulas where softness, comfort, and a lightweight conditioning effect are desired. Use levels and processing parameters are generally guided by supplier specifications to optimize stability, clarity, and sensorial performance in the finished product.
