Red jania

Red jania, a photophilic perennial seaweed found in calm waters, grows on rocks near the surface that are exposed to the light, or in sandy basins. Depending on light intensity, its color varies from pinkish-white in very bright light, to a violet-pink in low light. Its fine, multi-branched stems—composed of stiff, cylindrical segments—give the foliage a characteristic pom-pom look. Clarins photobioreactor cultivation method makes it possible to collect the seaweed in one harvest, assuring that the composition of the extract is constant and controlled throughout the year. Red jania extract is used in Clarins cosmetics for many purposes. It targets under eye circles + puffiness, helps eliminate dead skin cells, purifies, refines and minimizes shine.
