Spotlight on Natural Ingredients: Seaweed

In Beauty, Style by Tina Bowling3 Comments

Last month we looked at Cucumber extract in our beauty products.  This month, let’s talk about the benefits of Seaweed for our skin and hair.

Seaweed – It is a rich source of minerals and calcium.  It can eliminate excess water retention and remove toxins. Seaweed also promotes skin elasticity and can help prevent stretch marks.

Some of the many ways you can incorporate Seaweed into your beauty routine from head to toe:

For Your Hair:  To nourish your hair and feed the roots, try Bumble and Bumble Seaweed Shampoo & Conditioner.  This combo will leave hair shiny and healthy! Sephora, $20 each.

In Your Facial Cleanser:  Grab the mineral-rich Mario Badescu Seaweed Cleansing Soap for light exfoliation enhanced by the anti-inflammatory properties of the seaweed. You can even add the toner and night cream for a full seaweed regimen! Nordstrom, $12.00.

In Your Facial Moisturizer:  Keep your skin fresh and hydrated with the Seaweed Mattifying Day Cream from The Body Shop. It is oil-free and will keep that pesky shine away! thebodyshop-usa.com, $16.50.

In Your Facial Mask:  For a quick pick-me-up at the end of a busy day, add Hawaiian Seaweed Beauty Mask from Reviva Labs to your skincare routine.  It will deep cleanse and balance out your skin so you are more than fresh the next morning! RevivaLabs.com, $12.00.

For Your Feet:  The solution for rough skin in need of extra moisturization?  The H2O Spa Hand and Foot Smoother is an advanced treatment with salicylic and lactic acids for sloughing dead skin.  The Seaweed energizes and recharges the skin. H2OPlus.com, $18.00.

In Your Finishing Powder:  As a final touch with the benefit of Seaweed, set your foundation with Too Faced Absolutely Invisible Translucent Powder.  Eliminate shine and block free radicals with this amazing powder that also includes Chamomile to soothe and calm the skin. TooFaced.com, $27.00.
