Algae - What Are They?

Algae are aquatic plants that belong to a wide group of seaweeds. They are the oldest living organisms on Earth known for their vast health and caring qualities for many years.

The properties of algae are very broad. They have many ingredients that affect the proper nutrition of the skin. Algae contains minerals such as calcium, potassium, iron, copper, zinc, fluorine, and phosphorus. In addition, they are a valuable source of many vitamins: A, B, C, K, E and PP. Algae is also one of the few plants with vitamin B12, which is recommended for all people who eliminate meat in their diet. In algae, we also get dietary fiber.

Alternating recipe

Seaweed face masks and spa treatments are very expensive, but do you know that you can do this at your home? This is a easy recipe, using a seaweed called as bladderwrack which is very high in minerals, especially iodine and vitamin C. I like this face mask very much because it helps to detoxify your epidermis by pulling excess water from the skin. Because of this, it is important to moisturize with coconut oil afterwards.

Face Mask Material required:

1 tsp bladderwrack powder

1/4 teaspoon water

Process:

1) Combine seaweed and honey in a dish. For desired consistency add water in thinner, about 1/4 teaspoon.

2) Apply seaweed face mask and allow it to dry slightly for about 20-30 minutes.

3) Rinse with warm water, and finish with coconut oil to moisturize.
