Description
Applications of Hydrolyzed Sponge Spicules
Hydrolyzed sponge spicules are natural micro-needle particles derived from freshwater sponges. Through purification and hydrolysis, they become safe and effective for cosmetic use. Their micro-exfoliating and bio-stimulating properties make them suitable for addressing multiple skin concerns, as detailed below:
-
Acne (Inflammatory & Non-Inflammatory)： Gently unclogs pores and accelerates skin renewal to effectively manage mild to moderate acne.
-
Blackhead Acne (Comedones)：Loosens keratin plugs and removes oxidized sebum, helping to clear blackheads and refine skin texture.
-
Oily Skin (Sebum Balance)：Regulates sebum production by removing excess oil and supporting healthy keratin metabolism.
-
Keratin Metabolism (Exfoliation & Keratinization)：Stimulates natural exfoliation to speed up dead skin cell shedding and maintain optimal keratin turnover.
-
Large Pores：Clears pore debris and boosts cell turnover, visibly reducing the appearance of enlarged pores.
-
Fine Lines (Wrinkles)：Triggers collagen regeneration and enhances elasticity to soften fine lines and improve skin firmness.
-
Dark Spots (Pigmentation)：Accelerates epidermal metabolism to fade pigmentation and enhance the penetration of brightening actives.
-
Dull Skin (Uneven Tone)：Promotes micro-circulation and rapid cell renewal to reveal a brighter, more even skin tone.
Sponge Spicule Recommended dosage
Regulations stipulate that the addition of sponge spicules shall not exceed 16%.
Secondly, it is mainly added according to the expected effect of customer development products:
- Peeling cream and other products with peeling effect: In theory, about 8% should be added;
- Products such as creams that only introduce effects: It is recommended to add 0.5-2%.

FAQ
1. How many micro-needles are contained in 1 gram of hydrolyzed sponge?
Based on meticulous laboratory analysis, a single gram of hydrolyzed sponge contains over 40 million naturally occurring silica micro-needles. This high density of micro-needles is what drives the ingredient’s powerful skin-stimulating and renewing effects.
2. What are the structural characteristics of your hydrolyzed sponge micro-needles?
Our hydrolyzed sponge is characterized by its uniform micro-needle structure, featuring lengths ranging from 80 – 350 μm and diameters of approximately 10 – 15 μm. This carefully calibrated size ensures effective skin penetration while maintaining excellent safety and comfort, making it highly suitable for diverse skincare and cosmetic formulations.
3. Why is hydrolyzed sponge considered a scientific and safe ingredient?
Hydrolyzed sponge micro-needles function by gently penetrating the stratum corneum to activate skin metabolism, all without damaging the underlying dermis. This mechanism promotes cell renewal, boosts collagen synthesis, and enhances nutrient absorption. Consequently, it helps improve skin texture and elasticity through a process that is both natural and safe.
4. What is the recommended dosage of hydrolyzed sponge in skincare formulations?
The appropriate dosage depends on the intended function and specific product type:
1.For mild exfoliation or skin repair: 0.5%–2%
2.For intensive rejuvenation or anti-aging products: 3%–8%
5. What are the requirements for formulation bases when using hydrolyzed sponge?
To ensure optimal performance, hydrolyzed sponge should be incorporated into neutral and stable formulations. It is important to avoid strong acids, alkalis, or high temperatures during processing, as these conditions can cause the micro-needles to break down. Additionally, gentle stirring is recommended to preserve needle integrity and maximize efficacy.
6. What does the porous micro-needle structure mean?
Hydrolyzed sponge naturally contains millions of porous micro-needles capable of penetrating the skin’s surface and stimulating microcirculation. This unique architecture enhances the absorption of active ingredients and contributes to deep skin rejuvenation effects.
7. Can hydrolyzed sponge be fully absorbed by the skin?
No, it can’t be absorbed . The micro-needles remain temporarily within the epidermis, where they work to stimulate skin regeneration and accelerate microcirculation. They are naturally shed within 24 to 36 hours through the skin’s normal renewal process, leaving the skin visibly smoother and brighter.
