The skin is the outermost anatomical barrier, which plays a vital role in the maintenance of internal homeostasis and protection against physical, chemical, and biological detractors. Direct contact with various stimuli leads to several physiological changes that are ultimately important for the growth of the cosmetic industry. Due to the consequences of using synthetic compounds in skincare and cosmeceutical-related industries, the pharmaceutical and scientific communities have recently shifted their focus to natural ingredients. The nutrient-rich value of algae, which are some of the most interesting organisms in marine ecosystems, has attracted attention. Secondary metabolites isolated from seaweeds are potential candidates for a wide range of economic applications, including food, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics. An increasing number of studies have focused on polyphenol compounds owing to their promising biological activities against oxidation, inflammation, allergies, cancers, melanogenesis, aging, and wrinkles. This review summarizes the potential evidence of the beneficial properties and future perspectives of using marine macroalgae-derived polyphenolic compounds for advancing the cosmetic industry.
皮肤是人体最外层的解剖屏障，在维持内部平衡和抵御物理、化学和生物侵害方面起着至关重要的作用。与各种刺激物的直接接触会导致多种生理变化，这些变化对化妆品行业的发展至关重要。由于在皮肤护理和化妆品相关行业中使用合成化合物的后果，制药和科学界最近将注意力转向了天然成分。藻类是海洋生态系统中最有趣的生物之一，其富含营养的价值引起了人们的关注。从海藻中分离出的次生代谢产物是广泛的经济应用的潜在候选物，包括食品、药品和化妆品。由于其对氧化、炎症、过敏、癌症、黑色素生成、衰老和皱纹的生物活性具有广阔的前景，越来越多的研究集中在多酚化合物上。本文综述了海洋大型藻类来源的多酚化合物在推进化妆品行业方面的有益特性和未来前景的潜在证据。
