What does Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser do?
Hydrating Facial Cleanser gently removes daily buildup, excess oil, and environmental residue without stripping the skin. Instead of water, it’s built on a powerful base of wild, organic seaweed that hydrates, nourishes, and supports a balanced microbiome — leaving your skin soft, refreshed, and glowing.
Who is Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser best for?
Hydrating Facial Cleanser is ideal for sensitive, dry, or mature skin, and for those looking to support skin barrier function while gently cleansing. It’s also perfect for individuals prone to redness or dehydration, thanks to its calming and moisturizing profile.

What makes Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser different from other cleansers?
Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser is not water-based — it’s seaweed-based, using wild, hand-harvested Nereocystis and brown algae as its foundation. Seaflora is the only skincare brand globally that uses whole, organic seaweed instead of water in every formulation. This low-lather, pH-balanced cleanser delivers marine peptides, fucoidan, and CoQ10 while gently cleansing without disrupting the skin barrier — making it closer to a hydrating treatment than a typical face wash.

It has a creamy, low-lather lotion texture that glides across the skin and rinses easily. The scent is natural — subtly oceanic — with no added fragrance.

The 120 mL / 4 fl oz bottle lasts approximately 8 weeks with twice-daily use. The 50 mL / 1.7 oz travel size is perfect for on-the-go use or testing.
Is Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser safe during pregnancy or nursing?
Yes — it’s made with certified organic ingredients, is food-grade, and free of ingredients commonly avoided during pregnancy.
What should I follow Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser with?
Follow with Sea Splash Toning Essence to rehydrate and rebalance, then apply a hyaluronic acid–rich serum or moisturizer like Deep Sea Moisturizer to help plump fine lines and boost skin resilience.
Is Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser hypoallergenic?
Yes – It’s formulated to be gentle on all skin types.
Is Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser vegan / gluten free / cruelty free / organic?
Yes — Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser is vegan, gluten-free, cruelty-free, and made with USDA Certified Organic wild seaweed sustainably hand-harvested from the Canadian Pacific.

Never would I pay for a cleanser when I was younger, but my wife made me try Sea Therapy Cleanser and I can’t imagine going even one day without it now. My wife is beautiful, and although I am not so pretty, my skin is gorgeous!

I wanted to write my review after months of using this cleanser and share my results. I have mature skin that feels dry easily if I’m not careful what I use. I was running low on this product and thought I would try a cheaper but still organic cleanser from another company. What a mistake! After the first wash with the other cleanser my skin felt tight and dried out. I’ve learned my lesson and will stick with this SEA FLORA cleanser. It is truly outstanding! It is extremely gentle and non-irritating and although I am careful to avoid my eyes directly I use it all over with no issues and no dry, tight feeling on my skin after drying my face. You will love the amazing, hydrated feeling of your skin after using it. I highly recommend this product!!

I absolutely love this cleanser. I don’t even want to rinse it off, it feels so clean and moisturizing. The ingredients are just amazing – as they are in all Seaflora concoctions. It was one of the first products I tried and it really hooked me into trying more. I would never go back to any of my old products now. Seaflora lifer from here on out!

This is my absolute favourite cleanser. It’s light, refreshing and lasts forever. Doesn’t dry my skin out, and has a really nice light smell to it.

It’s like magic for my 82 year old skin… nothing compares to this cleanser, or Seaflora Skincare to be honest. My skin looks younger, it’s softer, this stuff is magic.
