Fucus powder is a common type of seaweed that is highly regarded as a source of tonic fat burning compounds. Fucus helps to preserve both youthfulness of the skin and slimness of the figure. It is widely used in detox programs and thalassotherapy, as it simultaneously provides a firming, soothing, tonic and anti-cellulite effect.

Fucus vesiculosus is a plant belonging to the kingdom of algae, which are located in the intertidal zone of different seas.

Fucus is a rich source of proteins, polysaccharides, minerals, vitamins, trace elements, unsaturated fatty acids and other active molecules that are necessary for the regulation of metabolic processes in the dermis and epidermis. Its unique properties are predetermined by the composition of such compounds as iodine, alginic acid, lures and polyphenols. Fucoidan, a polysaccharide with a pronounced antioxidant effect, should be mentioned separately. It stimulates the regeneration of skin cells and enhances local immunity, prevents premature aging, and activates blood circulation. Both oil and fucus extract retain all these beneficial substances.

One of the most popular effects of this plant is fat burning and anti-cellulite, which are widely used in thalassotherapy programs. Fucus stimulates blood circulation, promotes vasodilation, and triggers lipolytic processes. Thanks to this, the processes of splitting fat depots are activated, and the elimination of toxins from the subcutaneous fat.

Fucus extract promotes enhanced cellular regeneration, acts as a softening, soothing agent, smoothing wrinkles. It reduces roughness, makes the skin elastic and maintains its turgor in good condition. Fucus oil protects the skin from premature aging and dehydration, increases skin tone and turgor, smoothes wrinkles and prevents their further appearance. Moreover, due to the peculiarities of the mineral composition, this component fights the discomfort of the scalp.
