Microphyt Unveils Upcycled Ingredient to Deeply Recharge and Restore SkinMicrophyt presents its new bioactive ingredient, PhycoSi™, the first upcycled and bioavailable source of marine silicium designed to restructure the skin from the depth to the surface.

Sustainable Solution to Prevent the First Signs of Aging


It is a sustainable solution to prevent the first signs of aging.

Simplicity and efficiency have been the watchwords in recent years. By reducing the number of products and decreasing the time devoted to beauty routines, etc., consumers are going back to basics.

In this spirit, Microphyt decided to explore a fundamental skin element: silicium, and thus came up with PhycoSi™. Its two-step action first stimulates in-depth exchanges to recharge and strengthen the dermis, then it protects and restores skin at the surface by exfoliating and smoothing it. As a result, the skin is more supple and firmer and the microrelief is smoother.

Always looking for more sustainable solutions, Microphyt’s R&D team successfully developed a process for extracting the silicium contained in a manufacturing co-product and thus recycling a diatom extract intended for disposal. As such, Microphyt came up with PhycoSi™, an upcycled bioactive ingredient containing bioavailable marine silicium, which stands out as a fundamental skin reviver.

Unique benefits of PhycoSi™:

  • PhycoSi™ has a two-step action: it deeply recharges the dermis for visibly more supple and firmer skin and it restores and smooths skin at the surface
  • PhycoSi™ is the first sustainable source of upcycled and bioavailable marine silicium produced in France
  • PhycoSi™ is a water-soluble ingredient that can easily be incorporated into cosmetic products to prevent the first signs of aging
