Protects Against UV Damage Astaxanthin helps reduce sun-induced skin damage by neutralizing free radicals caused by UV exposure. Unlike sunscreen, which blocks UV rays, astaxanthin works to minimize oxidative stress, helping to prevent sunburn and photodamage.

Reduces Wrinkles & Fine Lines By improving skin elasticity and moisture retention, astaxanthin reduces the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. It helps stimulate collagen production, keeping skin firm and youthful.

Reduces Redness & Inflammation Due to its anti-inflammatory properties, astaxanthin soothes irritated skin, making it ideal for those with sensitive skin, rosacea, or acne-prone skin.
