Spirulina platensis

Spirulina platensis is a cyanobacteria biomass rich in proteins (60–70%), phycocyanin, chlorophyll, carotenoids, and essential fatty acids. Used as a natural blue-green pigment with documented antioxidant and anti-inflammatory bioactivity, it is positioned in cosmetics as a functional active rather than a decorative colorant. Optimal stability is at pH 6–7 under cold processing (<40 °C). It aligns strongly with clean-label, vegan, and sustainable trends
