Cosmetics
The natural cosmetics industry has for years been leveraging algae in products focused on skin-care. Algae must deal with the damaging impacts of exposure to solar radiation and other environmental hazards, and have developed special sun blocks and other agents to protect and heal themselves. Companies are now developing these compounds into products that offer humans the same benefits. This will be a fascinating industry to watch in the coming years!
