Glow From the Sea: Why OSEA’s Undaria Algae™ Body Oil Deserves a Spot in Your Skincare Ritual

Skincare That’s Good for You and the Planet

OSEA (pronounced “OH-SEE-UH”), short for Ocean, Sun, Earth, and Atmosphere, has been setting the standard in clean beauty since it was founded 29 years ago. This pioneering brand has stayed true to its mission: creating safe, effective, plant-based skincare that’s kind to both our bodies and the Earth.

Powered by sustainably sourced ingredients, including their hero component — hand-harvested Undaria seaweed — OSEA’s formulas are vegan, cruelty-free, and free of synthetic additives. The brand also walks the talk when it comes to sustainability: they’re Climate Neutral Certified, run on renewable energy, and use glass bottles and recyclable packaging wherever possible.

Spotlight on: Undaria Algae™ Body Oil

One of OSEA’s most beloved products — and for good reason — is the Undaria Algae™ Body Oil. This luxurious, seaweed-infused body oil is clinically shown to visibly improve skin elasticity and deliver deep, lasting hydration. It’s rich, but not greasy. Nourishing, yet lightweight. And it leaves your skin with an unmistakable, healthy glow.

Why It's a Must-Have:

• Visibly firms and improves elasticity

• Delivers intense moisture without heaviness

• Softens and smooths skin texture

• Packed with antioxidant-rich ingredients

• Fast-absorbing and leaves no greasy residue

• Perfect for all skin types

The scent is another standout feature — grapefruit, lime, and cypress mingle with sweet mango mandarin, creating a bright, uplifting aroma that transforms every application into a mini spa moment. For those with sensitive skin or scent sensitivities, OSEA also offers a fragrance-free version, which is hypoallergenic and dermatologist tested.

The Secret Sauce: Undaria Seaweed

The magic of this body oil starts with Undaria Algae™, a powerhouse seaweed that’s hand-harvested and then soaked in barrels of botanical oils to slowly infuse its rich supply of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. This artisanal infusion process results in a nutrient-dense oil that truly feeds your skin.

And yes — if you spot a bit of natural sediment at the bottom of your bottle, don’t worry. That’s just a sign of the real seaweed infusion at work.

How to Use It:

• When: Morning and night

• How: Massage into dry or damp skin

• Pro Tip: Layer over OSEA’s Hyaluronic Body Serum or Undaria Algae™ Body Lotion for amplified results. You can even apply it over tattoos to help enhance their vibrancy.

Sustainable Beauty Inside and Out

The oil comes in a beautiful frosted glass bottle, with a pump made from 50% PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastic. To recycle, just remove the pump (dispose in the trash), rinse the bottle, and place it in your curbside recycling bin — easy and eco-conscious.

Final Thoughts

In a world of endless skincare options, OSEA’s Undaria Algae™ Body Oil is truly in a league of its own. It’s skincare that not only works but also aligns with a lifestyle rooted in wellness, sustainability, and self-care. Whether you’re new to natural beauty or a longtime clean skincare devotee, this body oil is a radiant reminder of what nature (and thoughtful formulation) can do for your skin.
