Abstract: Methods for obtaining an aqueous extract of a microalgae Dunaliella salina cultivated in the absence of light in a culture medium of a yeast extract, sugar and salt include solubilising a yeast extract in water then adding sugar and salt. After solubilisation of the salt and at a pH between 5 and 8, the microalgae Dunaliella salina is added with stirring, in darkness and at room temperature, for a fermentation period of at least 12 hours. After the fermentation period, grinding and filtering are performed to separate a soluble aqueous raw extract to which salt is added. This extract undergoes sterilising filtration with a porosity threshold of less than or equal to 0.2 ?m and has a pH between 3.5 and 4.5. The extract obtained by the method, compositions incorporating the extract, and methods of skincare, scalp care and skin appendage care using such compositions are also disclosed.

Abstract: The invention relates to a hydroalcoholic extract of the aerial parts of Schinus molle.
