All of us have our origins in marine species. The first living cells were born in the sea, and we have kept a close relationship with that birthplace: human blood plasma and sea water share a very similar composition. Furthermore, the protective membranes within seaweed and our skin share similar means of defense, protection, and regeneration. This astonishingly similar composition and behavior - referred to as biomimetism - has allowed Phytomer laboratories to develop active ingredients and treatment products that are perfectly suited to and tolerated by the skin. Phytomer, a marine-based brand of skin care, focuses its research in 3 areas: the ocean, seaweed, and coastal plants.
Freeze drying allows Phytomer to keep the structure and composition of seaweed and sea water with no alterations. In fact, Phytomer is the only laboratory in the world to use freeze dried sea water in order to obtain a unique active ingredient: Oligomer. This sea water concentrate contains the 104 trace elements necessary for healthy skin. Incorporated into the majority of Phytomer's products, Oligomer remineralizes and rebalances skin even before treating any specific conditions (dehydration, wrinkles, lack of firmness, etc.).
