One of the things that makes this product so unique is that it gets many of its moisturizing properties from a formula that's made up of 70% starfish extract. This ingredient is said to be extremely good at the [regeneration and rejuvenation of skin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/regenerative-skincare-serum), leaving it firm, dewy and radiant. Since starfish have the ability to regenerate their own limbs, it's no wonder that the addition of this ingredient is a huge selling point for healthy skin. Additionally, women are also crazy about the cream's ability to reduce wrinkles, fight blemishes and provide a layer of protection against the elements. Aside from that one exotic ingredient, the [nourishing face cream](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ympossible-cream) is composed of other go-to beauty remedies like olive oil, evening primrose and sweet almond oil. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 12% | Activity: 53% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 10% men, 90% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Cosmetics](https://www.trendhunter.com/cosmetics) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Starfish Extract Skincare:** The trend towards using starfish extract in skincare products presents an opportunity for anti-aging and regenerative innovation. - **Natural Ingredient-based Skincare:** As consumers seek out natural and unique ingredients, the skincare industry has an opportunity to innovate and incorporate these into their products. - **K-beauty Influence:** The popularity of Mizon's starfish extract cream highlights the influence of Korean beauty trends and the potential for further innovation and collaboration with Korean skincare companies. ### Where This Applies - **Skincare:** Innovative startups and established brands within the skincare industry can explore the use of starfish extract and other natural ingredients to disrupt the anti-aging and regenerative skincare market. - **Cosmetics:** Cosmetic companies can incorporate starfish extract and other natural ingredients into their beauty products to offer unique and effective solutions for blemish-fighting, anti-aging, and hydration. - **International Exchange and Collaboration:** Companies in the skincare and cosmetics industry can work to create collaborations with Korean companies who specialize in unique, natural, and innovative ingredients, such as starfish extract. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Anti-Aging Hydrating Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/procollagen-anti-aging-marine-cream.md) - [Restoring Face Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/restore-face-cream.md) - [Retinol-Free Anti-Aging Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuxuriance-ultra.md) - [Regenerative Face Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/exosomepowered.md) - [Potent Vegan Night Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dream-job-antiaging-night-cream.md) - [Gentle Snail Mucin-Powered Serums](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snail-mucin.md) - [Anti-Aging Firming Creams](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/antiaging-firming-cream.md) - [Plant-Based Firming Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extreme-cream.md) - [Multi-Layer Milky Moisturizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aging-cream.md)
