chondrus crispus powder

Low risk

FunctionThickener

What it is — Chondrus Crispus Powder (INCI of the same name) is powdered Irish moss (a red seaweed), used as a natural thickener and texturizer.

What it does — It is commonly used to build viscosity and structure, giving gels and masks a smooth, cushioned body.

Typical use — It appears in masks, gels and other water-based formulas that need natural-feeling texture.

Who it suits / good to know — Suitable for most skin types; it works on the formula's texture rather than acting as a skin active. As a marine botanical, composition can vary by source.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk: an inert, non-irritating seaweed thickener. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.

Why we grade it Low: Low risk - thickener/film-forming polymer, inert and non-irritating.
