Five Products Packed With Vitamin Sea
There’s nothing worse than having dry skin in the summer, but with the range of products out there, it’s difficult to know exactly what skincare you should be using to help support your skin in the summer months! We’ve rounded up some of the best ocean-based products for your skincare routine, supported by science. Faye Purcell, the Product Development Chemist & Skincare Expert at Q+A enlightens us to the benefits of algae and seaweed!
Together Health iodine supplements, £6.99
One of the best things you can do to support your skin from the inside out is make sure that you’re getting your daily dose of Vitamin Sea (alright, I’ll stop making that joke soon). Nevertheless, taking supplements can be an incredibly important step in making sure that you are your healthiest, happiest self.
Organically sourced from sustainable, wild seaweed, which is well-known for its ‘healing and anti-ageing properties’, iodine is actually an incredibly important mineral for your thyroid – and we all know that thyroid issues can be difficult to manage. Most of us get our daily iodine intake from our diets – from source like fish, dairy and seaweed, but for those of us like me who aren’t the biggest fans of sushi… being able to take it in supplement form is a life-saver.
Q+A Marine Hyaluronate Toning Lotion, £8
Brand new Q+A Marine Hyaluronate Toning Lotion, containing a range of sea-based products from giant algae extract to squalane (whatever that is, it sounds fun!) Actually, it’s similar to hyaluronic acid, which we all know is excellent for keeping our skin looking plump and hydrated. Faye Purcell explained that, ’algae retains a lot of water, which helps boost hydration.’ Suitable for all skin types, this alcohol- and fragrance-free toner is perfect for keeping your skin looking supple and radiant all day long. Plus, it’s vegan friendly. What more could you ask for?
Q+A Snow Algae Intensive Face Cream, £12
Also from Q+A is this beautifully nourishing face cream packed full of lovely moisturising ingredients, like shea butter, hyaluronic acid and snow algae, which is great for ‘protecting the skin, reducing puffiness and repairing environmental damage.’ Best suited as a night cream, this fragrance-free and vegan friendly cream is perfect for soothing tired skin and minimising fine lines.
Together Health Omega 3, £13.99
Not a fishy fan? No problem! You can get your omega 3 in supplement form from Together Health. Omega 3 is essential for maintaining our immune system, hormone system and organs – so you’d better make sure that you get yours! This supplement comes with a twist though – it’s vegan friendly as it sources its omega 3 straight from the ocean, from sustainably sourced, pure algae.
Q+A Seaweed Peptide Eye Gel, £6.50
If your look the morning after is less ‘fresh and breezy’ and more ‘was fighting sea monsters all night’, we can definitely recommend this cooling eye gel. As odd as it may sound, you should keep this one in the fridge to boost the benefits which encompass firming, soothing and smoothing your under-eye area. Naturally sourced, fragrance-free and vegan friendly, this gel is formulated with seaweed, aloe vera, peptides and witch hazel. Slather it on, and you’re good to go.
