Delivers spicules and extracts of Caribbean sponges deep into the skin to hydrate, heal, and improve skins texture
Scarred, Uneven, Dull, Inflamed, and Wrinkled Complexion
*Not for sensitive complexion
This corrective formula contains extracts and spicules of marine sponges from the Atlantic Ocean, which deeply exfoliate and leave behind fresh and smooth skin. The spicules penetrate your skin and deliver micronutrients that accelerate natural skin-renewing processes. Copper peptides promote collagen production and skin elasticity which firm, tighten, and minimize fine lines and wrinkles. This mask improves texture and reduces hyperpigmentation after the first application
DIRECTIONS
After cleansing, gently massage a layer onto your skin using circular motions for 60 seconds. Leave on for up to 10 minutes and rinse off with lukewarm water. Proceed with serum and moisturizer application. Due to intense exfoliation and resurfacing, use in the evening only once a week. It is essential to apply sun protection for the next week following use.

Key Ingredients
- Marine & Caribbean Sponge Extract - There are numerous benefits to using natural sea sponges in your skincare routine. Ideal for top-notch exfoliating, circulation boosting and enhancing the surface of your skin . Marine extracts are super rich in minerals like copper, zinc and iron. These elements allow the skin to retain moisture so it doesn't become dry . A high mineral content also boosts blood flow throughout the body, leaving skin healthier and radiant. They are inherently hypoallergenic, so sea sponges are great for sensitive skin too.
- Marine & Caribbean Sponge Spicules - This extract is in powdered form and consists of a mixture of fibers (small "needles"). These "needles" provide a peeling effect on contact with the skin: they cause a slight inflammation that causes a renewal of the stratum corneum. For the replacement, the production of collagen is stimulated and sebum production is controlled. This extract is used to treat acne, acne scars, and fine lines.
- Copper Peptides - When applied topically, copper peptides work as an antioxidant, promote collagen and elastin production, and soften the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles . Copper is also an anti-inflammatory that speeds up wound healing, meaning it's great for treating scarring, pigmentation, and redness caused by inflammation.
- Copper Sulfate - It is considered as a skin conditioning agent, and copper naturally exerts all its role for making skin look better like antiaging, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory . Copper Sulfate prevents bacterial proliferation on the skin and soothes skin.

What Are Sea Sponges?
- Sea sponges are animals, not plants nor corals.
- They have been around - that is in our oceans - for more than 600 million years.
- There are more than 8,000 known species of sea sponges in the world's oceans and more are identified each year.
- They make up an entire phylum of animals, Phylum Porifera.
- Sea sponges are some of the simplest of multi-cellular organisms. They do not have heads, eyes, brains, arms, legs, ears, muscles, nerves or organs.
- Even though they have no organs, sponges are made up of specialized cells that carry out all biological processes.
- Sea sponges have lots of pores to filter water in food and oxygen, and to push waste out (thus the name Porifera).
- Some new approaches are being used to introduce new antiviral agents from marine sources that have many promising therapeutic leads. This is because sponges are one of the richest sources of antiviral property compounds.
