Description

Krill Oil is a premium marine oil extracted from tiny crustaceans known as Antarctic krill (Euphausia superba). It is prized for its exceptional concentration of omega-3 fatty acids (EPA & DHA) bound to phospholipids, making them more bioavailable compared to traditional fish oil. Krill Oil is also naturally rich in astaxanthin, a powerful antioxidant that gives it its deep red color and provides added protection against oxidative stress.

In cosmetic and personal care formulations, Krill Oil supports skin hydration, elasticity, and barrier protection while delivering anti-aging and antioxidant benefits. It is also widely consumed as a dietary supplement for cardiovascular, cognitive, and joint health.

Description

Krill Oil – Refined is obtained through gentle extraction from Antarctic krill, ensuring purity and preservation of its active compounds. Unlike fish oil, the omega-3s in Krill Oil are attached to phospholipids, allowing for superior absorption into cell membranes, which enhances skin and overall health benefits.

For topical use, Krill Oil helps restore the lipid balance of the skin, reduces inflammation, and promotes smooth, supple skin. Its natural astaxanthin content not only gives it antioxidant power but also helps protect skin cells from UV-induced damage.
