The quest for natural and sustainable ingredients in cosmetics has led to increased interest in marine-derived biomaterials for skin rejuvenation. The marine ecosystem holds a plethora of unique organisms that produce bioactive compounds with potential benefits for human skin health and rejuvenation. This manuscript examines the diverse potential of marine collagen, sourced from jellyfish, sponge collagen (spongin), and fish collagen, as a key component in skin rejuvenation. Jellyfish collagen demonstrates moisturizing effects and protection against UV-induced photo aging, while sponge collagen exhibits promising applications in promoting cell proliferation and mitigating inflammatory responses. Fish collagen, particularly from fish skin sourced from processing waste, stands out for its safety, moisture retention, and protective effects against UV radiation. This review underscores the significance of marine collagen in enhancing skin hydration, renewal, UV protection, cell proliferation, and inflammation reduction. With extensive clinical evidence supporting these positive effects, the cosmetic industry is poised to leverage the regenerative capabilities of marine collagen for the development of safe, effective, and holistic skin rejuvenation solutions.
