The Formula
Six Clinically Studied Ingredients
Defend. Hydrate. Rebuild. Every ingredient is working in concert for your best skin.
Astaxanthin
Nature's most powerful antioxidant, sourced from microalgae.
Antioxidant
The red-orange pigment that gives flamingos and salmon their pink color. Produced by Haematococcus pluvialis microalgae, it's up to 6,000x stronger than Vitamin C at neutralizing free radicals. Supports skin elasticity, moisture retention, and helps reduce the appearance of fine lines over time. Who would have thought Flamingos would be gate-keeping skin care secrets?
Polypodium leucotomos
A tropical fern used for centuries to support sun-exposed skin.
Fern extract
Native to Central and South America, this fern has been used by indigenous communities for generations for long fishing voyages. Modern research explores its role in supporting the skin's natural photoprotective mechanisms. 240mg is the clinically studied dose. We used 240mg. Funny how that works.
Marine Collagen
Type I peptides from wild-caught fish that support skin structure.
Collagen peptides
Marine collagen peptides are smaller than bovine collagen, which means they're absorbed faster and directed more efficiently to your skin. Studies show they support skin elasticity, hydration, and overall dermal structure. 5g is a real dose. Your collagen will feel it.
L-Proline
The amino acid your body needs to build and repair collagen.
Collagen precursor
L-Proline is one of the key building blocks your body uses to synthesize collagen. While Marine Collagen provides ready-made peptides, L-Proline gives your body the raw material to produce its own collagen naturally. Think of it as giving your skin the ingredients and the recipe.
Vitamin C
The essential cofactor that activates your body's collagen-building machinery.
178% Daily Value
As Ascorbic Acid. Without adequate Vitamin C, your body cannot produce collagen efficiently. It also serves as a potent antioxidant alongside Astaxanthin, neutralizing free radicals generated by UV exposure. The ingredient that makes every other ingredient work harder. The unsung hero of this formula.
Hyaluronic Acid
The moisture molecule that keeps skin plump and hydrated.
Deep hydration
As Sodium Hyaluronate. Holds up to 1,000 times its weight in water, making it one of nature's most effective hydrators. Taken orally, it supports skin moisture from within, helping maintain the plump, resilient look that UV exposure and aging gradually diminish. Your moisturizer works from the outside. This works from the inside.

Common Questions
Does Albedo replace sunscreen?
No. Albedo is a dietary supplement. It supports your skin's natural resilience from the inside. It complements your sun care routine. Always use broad-spectrum SPF when exposed to direct sunlight. We will keep saying this until someone invents a supplement that is also a sunscreen, at which point the FDA will have a very long day.
How long before I notice results?
Most people report noticing a difference in skin resilience and overall appearance within 2–4 weeks of consistent daily use. Your skin is rebuilding from the inside. It's not magic. It's biology. Biology takes a minute.
What does it taste like?
Blood Orange Yuzu. It tastes like a drink you would order at a restaurant that has exposed brick and no menu. Not like a supplement you're choking down out of moral obligation. We were unreasonably stubborn about this during formulation. Our flavor person may need therapy. Please purchase Albedo to fund his treatment.
Is it actually good or does it taste like fish?
Blood Orange Yuzu. No fish taste. We went through an unreasonable number of flavor iterations to make sure you'd actually want to drink this every morning. The fish collagen is hydrolyzed and has no flavor or odor. The cod fish gave their collagen willingly for your skin. (They didn't. But it's very high quality.)
Can I take it with a shellfish allergy?
Albedo contains Marine Collagen from wild-caught fish, not shellfish. However, it is produced in a facility that also processes shellfish. If you have any fish or shellfish allergies, we recommend consulting your healthcare provider before use. We don't mess around with allergen stuff.
How do I use it?
One scoop in 8oz of cold water, juice, or a smoothie every morning. The ceramic scoop is included with every jar. 9.81g per serving, 20 calories, 5g protein. That's it. No loading phase, no cycling, no complicated ritual. Just one scoop and go live your life.
What's your return policy?
We offer a 30-day satisfaction guarantee. The tub is yours to keep. Use it as a pencil holder. Or put your goldfish in it. We don't care. We're confident enough with what's inside to make that bet.

My Irish lineage…

…hasn’t done me any favors. I haven’t done myself any favors either in the sunscreen department. Vinegar baths, sunburn so bad it’s purple, and peeling skin only Goldmember could enjoy.

Albedo has given my fair skin a jumpstart this summer. I still use sunscreen, and my skin feels better than ever after even a few hours in the sun. I still get the vitamin D benefits but don’t have the fatigue or lack of energy one gets after being on or in the water all day. My second batch is on the way just in time for America 250!

Albedo Delivers (& Is Quite Tasty)

I'm skeptical of most supplements, but Albedo blew me away.

First, the flavor. Blood orange is excellent. Citrusy and refreshing without the cloying sweetness that ruins a lot of these types of powdered drinks. It dissolves cleanly in cold water and I look forward to sipping each AM.

They also did their homework on the formula. Astaxanthin, Polypodium, marine collagen, L-proline, vitamin C, & hyaluronic acid are all set at the clinical doses. And most importantly...fully disclosed with no proprietary-blend games.

I got it right at the start of summer, and I'm already noticing the difference. It works best as part of a complete protocol. Paired with proper AM light exposure, the results compound. Light sets the circadian foundation while Albedo supports the skin.

Happy with the purchase. I'll be reordering. Recommended.

Six months, still improving

I want to leave this review specifically for the people who are on month two or three wondering if they should continue. They should. I'm at six months and my skin is still improving. The collagen remodeling process is slow and cumulative. The antioxidant protection compounds. The hyaluronic acid hydration builds a baseline that gets more stable over time. If you're consistent and patient, Albedo keeps delivering. My skin at six months is better than it was at three months which was better than it was at one month. Keep going.

The brand deserves the loyalty it gets

I've purchased from Helios Naturals four times now. Each order reinforces why I keep coming back. The product quality is consistent. The formula hasn't changed or been diluted. The results continue to build month over month. In a supplement market full of brands that over-promise and under-deliver, finding one that does the opposite is genuinely meaningful. My skin health is the best evidence I have that this brand is worth trusting. I plan to be a customer for a long time.
