What does Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser do?
Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser gently removes daily buildup, excess oil, and environmental residue without stripping the skin—ever. Instead of water, it's built on a powerful base of wild, organic seaweed that hydrates, nourishes, and supports a balanced microbiome. Packed with CoQ10 to help prevent the thinning of skin as we age, this cleanser is so hydrating it rivals most moisturizers—leaving your skin soft, refreshed, and glowing from the very first step.
Who is Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser best for?
Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser is ideal for mature, sensitive, dry, or dehydrated skin—and for anyone who's tired of cleansers that leave their face feeling tight, stripped, or parched. It's especially effective for those looking to support skin barrier function, combat age-related thinning, or reduce visible redness. If you believe your cleanser should nourish, not punish—this is for you.

What makes Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser different from other cleansers?
Here's the truth most brands won't tell you: mass-produced cleansers are designed to strip your skin in step one—so they can sell you expensive products to "fix" it in steps two through ten. We don't work like that.
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, raw, 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 your skin barrier—making it closer to a hydrating treatment than a typical face wash. Your cleanser is the cornerstone of your skincare routine. It should never strip. Period.

Why is seaweed good for your skin — especially in a cleanser?
Your cleanser sets the tone for everything that follows—and most cleansers set you up to fail. Seaweed changes that equation entirely.
Seaweed is a prebiotic packed with natural humectants, antioxidants, amino acids, and trace minerals that hydrate and protect the skin—even during cleansing. In Sea Therapy Facial Cleanser, whole, raw seaweed replaces water entirely, delivering fucoidan, alginates, and polysaccharides that calm, plump, and support barrier health from the very first step in your routine. This is what cleansing should feel like.
