PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS

Full-Spectrum Bio-Active Profile

Unlike isolated spicules, our ratio extract retains the sponge’s natural iodine, amino acids, and minerals, which are vital for skin barrier support and anti-inflammatory pathways.

High Concentration Ratios (20:1)

By concentrating the active essence of the sponge, our 20:1 extract allows formulators to achieve high efficacy with low dosage, significantly reducing the cost per unit in finished products.

Excellent Formula Compatibility

The fine 80-mesh brown-yellow powder is easily dispersed in various cosmetic bases, including creams, lotions, and mud masks, without the harsh mechanical abrasion of pure spicules.

Sustainable Ecological Sourcing

Our Spongilla Lacustris is harvested following strict environmental guidelines to ensure the long-term sustainability of the freshwater ecosystem.

TECHNICAL FAQ

Q1: Why is this Spongilla Extract brown-yellow instead of white?

A: This is a “Ratio Extract” (e.g., 20:1), which is a concentrated form of the entire sponge’s soluble active components. The brown-yellow color comes from natural proteins, pigments, and organic iodine preserved in the extract. White Spongilla powder is typically a pure silica spicule isolate.

Q2: What is the benefit of a 20:1 ratio compared to a 5:1 ratio?

A: A 20:1 ratio means 20kg of raw material is used to produce 1kg of extract. It contains a much higher density of active nutrients, allowing for lower inclusion rates in your final formulation while maintaining superior efficacy.

Q3: Can this powder be used in water-based serums?

A: Yes, our extract is designed for good dispersibility. However, as it is a concentrated natural extract, we recommend checking for slight color influence in completely transparent formulations or pre-dispersing it in the water phase.
