Why is Seaflora Skincare so effective for soothing eczema and psoriasis?

Wild Sea Kelp Body Lotion is a great choice for eczema prone skin because it is made up of approx 80% organic sea kelp.

Kelp contains natural anti-inflammatory compounds that can help soothe irritated and inflamed skin, which is a common issue for those with eczema. Seaweed is packed with bioavailable antioxidants, vitamins, and minerals that nourish the skin. These nutrients support skin health and repair, making it particularly beneficial for sensitive and damaged skin.

Seaweed acts as a prebiotic, providing food for beneficial bacteria in the skin microbiome. A healthy skin microbiome is crucial for reducing inflammation and maintaining skin barrier function, which is often compromised in eczema.

Seaweed’s natural polysaccharides help to retain moisture in the skin, providing hydration and reducing dryness, which is a significant concern for eczema sufferers.

The unique bioactive compounds in seaweed, such as alginates and fucoidan, promote skin healing and repair damaged tissue. This can be particularly effective in managing the symptoms of eczema by accelerating the healing process of irritated and broken skin.

Does Seaflora carry medical grade skincare?

Seaflora is the cleanest skincare on the market which is what you want for your clients after medi-spa procedures. “Medical-grade” is a marketing term that can be misleading, as truly medical products would require a prescription. What medi-spas are likely seeking are high-quality, clean skincare products suitable for use on sensitive or compromised skin, such as after microneedling procedures. For medi-spas looking for appropriate products to use following treatments like microneedling, the focus should be on:

  1. Clean, non-irritating formulations
  2. Products free from potential sensitizers or irritants
  3. Ingredients that support skin healing and barrier function

Seaflora could indeed be an excellent choice for medi-spas, as it likely offers clean, natural formulations that are gentle enough for use on sensitive skin. When recommending Seaflora, you could highlight its specific benefits for post-treatment care, such as:

  • Natural, marine-based ingredients that support skin healing
  • Absence of harsh chemicals or potential irritants
  • Formulations designed to nourish and protect compromised skin

Does Seaflora ship internationally?

Absolutely! We also offer free shipping in North America on orders over $150.

What is the best product for old skin?

Seabright Moisturizer is the best solution for aging gracefully, but nothing can replace a healthy lifestyle as the number one solution for graceful aging.

Where are Seaflora’s ingredients harvested?

All main ingredients used in Seaflora’s proprietary formulas are harvested between Sooke and Port Renfrew, in remote, pristine waters connected to the open Pacific Ocean and surrounded by National Parks on both sides of the Juan de Fuca Strait.

What is Seaflora’s sustainable harvesting process?

The harvesting process begins before sunrise during the summer months. It is conducted mostly on foot in the ocean garden at low tide, using simple knives or scissors for hand-harvesting. We never harvest entire plants; the seaweed is simply given “haircuts,” with careful selection of mature seaweed while leaving younger algae undisturbed. Seaweeds are among the fastest-growing organisms on earth, growing up to and beyond 2 feet a day!

What are some fun facts about seaweed?

  • British Columbia has over 700 unique species of seaweed.
  • All seaweed is algae, but not all algae is seaweed; seaweeds grow exclusively in ocean water.
  • Freshwater algae, like spirulina and blue-green algae, are not seaweed.
  • Seaweeds contain up to 1000x more vitamins and minerals than any fruit, vegetable, or herb, plus unique bioactive compounds like alginates, fucoidan, and mycosporine-like amino acids that are not present in land plants.
