What is Seaweed?
Seaweed is a type of ocean plant used in skincare products to provide key nutrients and minerals for healthy skin. It contains algae and kelp which offer surprising benefits and have a unique chemical makeup that makes them useful for various facial and body skincare needs. Seaweed is also utilized for purposes such as cooking and fertilizing crops.
What’s in Seaweed?
Seaweed like any other land plant requires various chemicals to transport energy and protect itself from environmental toxins. Key active ingredients derived from seaweed include: Vitamin C, Potassium, Iron, Vitamin B12 (Niacin), and Choline. Other important components for the skin include polysaccharides that can attract up to 1,000 times their weight in water molecules. You can observe this by dropping dry seaweed in warm water, where it swells to a much greater size than when dried.

Benefits of Seaweed
When using a seaweed mask, serum, or moisturizing cream, seaweed provides a natural source of many key benefits for your skin.
Hydrates
Seaweed is a well-known hydrating ingredient in skincare products. It acts as a powerful humectant, drawing moisture to skin cells. The potent polysaccharides in seaweed absorb water and bring it to the skin, providing long-lasting hydration for a moisturized look.
Volumizes
Seaweed not only hydrates the skin but also helps to plump its appearance by quenching the thirst of dehydrated skin cells with water molecules. This results in a smooth, soft complexion that feels supple to the touch.
Helps Fight Aging
Seaweed skincare products offer daily hydrating benefits and can help minimize the appearance of fine lines caused by a loss of skin elasticity. The active ingredients in seaweed draw moisture to the skin resulting in a smoother appearance and providing the necessary nutrients for radiant-looking skin.
Detoxifies
Naturally seaweed has adapted to contain mechanisms that help it get rid of toxic chemicals it may encounter in the wild. Our high quality seaweed-infused products pass on this property to you, providing seaweed’s chemical detoxifiers and protectors to ensure your face feels refreshed after a day out. An exfoliant is also used to remove dead skin.
