CARRAGEENAN

Carrageenan is a high purity, sulfated galactan polysaccharide from red algae, available in kappa, iota, and lambda grades with differing gelation behaviour, extensively utilized in cosmetic formulations as a natural marine-derived gelling agent and viscosity builder, engineered to produce structured gel textures, reinforce formulation consistency, and optimize natural gel performance in masks, peel-off products, and conditioning systems.
