Algisium C2 - Organic Silicon Active for Skin Firmness and Elasticity

Algisium C2 is an advanced cosmetic active based on organic silicon, specifically developed for formulations designed to improve skin firmness, elasticity, and visible skin density. Owing to its excellent bioavailability and compatibility with modern cosmetic ingredients, it is widely used in professional skincare, cosmeceutical formulations, and premium beauty products. Within the Mylo Opt range, this ingredient belongs to the Skin Firmness and Elasticity category.

The active component of Algisium C2 is Methylsilanol Mannuronate, a bioavailable organic silicon compound combined with mannuronic acid derived from brown seaweed. This unique structure provides excellent compatibility with aqueous cosmetic systems and makes the ingredient suitable for formulations intended for mature, dehydrated, dry, and loss-of-firmness skin.

Globally, Algisium C2 is widely incorporated into skin-firming serums, lifting creams, concentrated boosters, ampoule treatments, facial moisturizers, neck and décolleté products, eye care formulations, professional post-treatment skincare, and body contouring products. It is particularly valued in premium cosmetic formulations designed to visibly improve skin firmness while maintaining a natural and healthy appearance.

Algisium C2 is commonly selected for cosmetic products formulated to support firmer and smoother-looking skin. It contributes to formulations intended to enhance the appearance of skin density, improve the feeling of elasticity, and promote a fresher, more toned complexion. The combination of organic silicon with a marine polysaccharide derivative makes this active especially suitable for advanced emulsions, serums, gels, creams, and multifunctional skincare systems.

The ingredient demonstrates excellent compatibility with hyaluronic acid, collagen, marine collagen, elastin, peptides, niacinamide, amino acids, ceramides, vitamins, antioxidants, coenzyme Q10, Centella asiatica extract, seaweed extracts, botanical extracts, moisturizing complexes, polysaccharides, and numerous modern cosmetic actives. This versatility allows formulators to create comprehensive skin-firming and anti-aging cosmetic systems.

Beyond facial skincare, Algisium C2 is extensively used in body firming creams, bust care products, contouring cosmetics, anti-cellulite formulations, products designed to improve skin firmness after weight loss, professional SPA treatments, scalp care formulations, and advanced hair care products where organic silicon serves as a complementary functional cosmetic ingredient.

The recommended use level is 2-5%, depending on the formulation type and the desired cosmetic performance. Algisium C2 should be incorporated into the cooled water phase or added during the final stage of emulsion manufacturing at temperatures below 40°C to maintain maximum stability and functionality.

The raw material should be stored in its original tightly sealed container at temperatures between +5°C and +25°C, protected from direct sunlight, excessive heat, and freezing conditions.
