Ingredients & Benefits

+ -

Cold-pressed botanical oils including grapeseed, sunflower and others dissolve makeup, impurities and excessive oiliness without stripping the skin.

A gentle emulsifier allows the oils to rinse away without a hot cloth or second cleanse.

All ingredients: Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed Oil, Quillaja Saponaria Wood Extract, Glycerin, Saponaria Officinalis Extract, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Fruit Extract, Di-PPG-2 Myreth-10 Adipate, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Flower Oil, Arthrospira Platensis (Spirulina) Extract, Benzyl Alcohol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Extract.

Note: Just like the ocean, the color of this product will naturally change from cerulean blue to sea green in response to contact with light and air. This is because the color comes from natural spirulina extract, not artificial dyes.

A sensory experience unlike any other cleanser

This stunning blue beauty get its color from spirulina extract, a superfood rich in animo acids and nutrients. But this cleanser’s virtues go beyond its luscious looks and fresh, breezy ocean-inspired scent.

A great fit for all skin types, Sea to Skin cleanses away makeup, sunscreen, excess oil and other impurities without over-drying the skin.

Dip your fingers into the jar to scoop a small amount, then massage into the skin. You’ll notice the gel melts into an oil, which then transforms into a milky liquid when you rinse or remove with a warm, wet cloth. Your skin is left clean, soft and dewy.

How to use this product

Start with dry hands and massage onto dry face, concentrating on areas with makeup. Rinse away makeup and impurities.

I love these products!!!

I bought these products because I am on a mission to cut as much plastics out of my life as I can. But, I have been amazed with how beneficial they have been for my skin. I have struggled with adult hormonal acne for years. The sea to skin cleanser, clarifying and precious oils serums has almost entirely cleared it up. And the products last a long time. Love it!!

Facial Bliss

I was initially gifted this facial cleanser from Mercy for Animals. And I fell in love with it. I am on my fourth refill at the moment, and I couldn’t recommend it more. It’s smells amazing and it feels great and if I wear make up, I first use a wipe to remove most of the make up and then the cleanser takes off the rest. I love how it is sustainable eco-friendly, nontoxic, cruelty-free, and vegan. I definitely recommend trying it out. I will never go back to anything else because my breakouts have been managed and my skin feels super soft and beautiful. For some reason this page won’t let me upload my YouTube video but here is the YouTube video I posted for this product. https://youtube.com/shorts/6XAS0qXcw6M?feature=share
