Why Astaxanthin Shows Up in Both Serums and Supplements
Astaxanthin is a carotenoid pigment from microalgae — the same compound that gives salmon and shellfish their color. It is a powerful antioxidant, and because it is fat-soluble it distributes easily through the lipid portion of a cream or a capsule, which explains its dual life in topical serums and ingestible formulas.
On the topical side, look at SkinBetter Science Mystro Active Balance Serum, Mystro Revive Renewing Serum and EyeMax AlphaRet Overnight Cream. Ingestible use is represented by Nutrafol Women's Balance. SkinBetter Science and Nutrafol are the two brands here that formulate with it.
Is astaxanthin the same thing as vitamin A?
No. Both belong to the carotenoid family, but astaxanthin does not convert to retinol in the body and does not behave like a retinoid on skin.
