9 chose

Life originated in water, and it is in water, in the depths of the sea, that cosmetologists still draw their inspiration to create new "drugs" to maintain and preserve youth and beauty.

marine collagen

Marine collagen is incredibly similar in structure to human collagen. This is the secret of the effectiveness of the use of beauty products, which include this component.

Seaweed

A scientifically recorded fact: the beneficial substances and trace elements contained in algae are almost 100% absorbed by the human body. Unique seaweed is not contraindicated even for children and pregnant women.

The range of applications of seaweed is so wide that it is hardly possible to cover it entirely. Algae is indispensable for detoxification and weight loss, to maintain youthful skin and get rid of cellulite. They improve metabolism and increase immunity, and finally relieve the feeling of chronic fatigue. A bath with seaweed will instantly drive away the autumn blues.

Sea salt

Sea salt is enemy number 1 for cellulite and sagging body skin. A sea salt scrub, combined with daily moisturizing, will noticeably tighten the silhouette in a few weeks.

Cellulite, whatever its main cause, appears as a result of the accumulation of excess fluid in the intercellular space. Sea salt "absorbs" excess water, relieving swelling and smoothing the skin.

The sea heals, both physically and emotionally!

Everyone knows the wonderful healing properties of the sea, it has an amazing effect on the human body. The sea has a magical power of attraction, its boundless expanse and the measured sound of the waves fascinate and pacify. You can look at the sea for an infinitely long time, and for many, the best vacation is strongly associated with the seaside coast. Salt waters supply the body with negative ions that neutralize the excess of harmful ones that city dwellers accumulate in the stone jungle. Thanks to this, the sea has an anti-stress effect. And the sea also gives us a huge amount of useful substances that normalize metabolic processes and have a beneficial effect on the entire body as a whole. Minerals and trace elements, such as hydrogen, magnesium, potassium and calcium, become a kind of nutritious cocktail for our skin. Sea water is one of the best natural cosmetics! By saturating the skin with oxygen, it provides the body and skin with cleansing, like a natural and natural spa treatment. Even those who consider themselves practically healthy should know that sea water, which has in its composition an almost complete set of elements of the periodic table, contributes to the activation of all vital processes in the human body and increases its ability to resist a variety of diseases.

The diversity of flora in the Black Sea is amazing. It has more than 250 species of algae. Almost all Black Sea algae are widely used in cosmetology. Algae has a high content of iodine, it is proved that this element is vital for the normal functioning of the human body. Iodine is absorbed through the skin much better than through the intestines, so iodine is absorbed according to needs: that is, there can be no overdose. The substance acts as a moisturizing product, and dry skin remains one of the main causes of premature aging. The action of this trace element will speed up cell renewal, which will help maintain the freshness and youthfulness of the skin.

Seaweeds are distinguished by a huge concentration of nutrients, which means they will have a more powerful and faster effect in the fight against signs of aging, skin fading. They will accelerate the action of all other plant components contained in the natural cosmetics "The Sea Heals". Spirulina occupies a special place among algae. This is the only prehistoric seaweed that has survived to this day in its original state. It always remains environmentally friendly. In cosmetology, it is used as a means to increase skin tone and elasticity, to strengthen the body, that is, to tone not only the skin, but also all soft tissues, including muscles. Spirulina makes the body not only toned, but also elastic, young.

For the Sea Heals cosmetic products, we have collected only the best and most useful things that the sea and its surrounding nature give us. Favorable climatic conditions, clean air, with a high concentration of minerals, all this gives the plants that we have chosen for our products the best healing properties. "Sea heals" - natural, health-improving care cosmetics that will help you maintain youth, beauty and health!

If we believe that our ancestors came from the ocean, it becomes clear why marine organisms are very similar in composition to human blood. Then the question why cosmetics based on oceanic components makes a splash simply does not arise.

dermatologist

The depths of the sea still hold many secrets. To date, biologists have studied only 30% of the representatives of oceanic flora and fauna, so all discoveries are yet to come. But the data obtained is quite enough so that cosmetologists can safely say that marine components are often more effective than vegetable ones. The first place among them is occupied by algae, but red caviar, fish skin, crustacean shells, mollusks, mussels and pearls are also capable of much.

One blood

In terms of the quantity and quality of micro and macro elements, the composition of seaweed is similar to the composition of human blood, which makes it possible to look at them as a source of a ready-made and balanced cocktail of substances necessary for our body. No wonder that in ancient times, fishermen off the coast of Brittany wrapped each other in algae from head to toe in order to quickly restore strength during illness. In cosmetology, especially in thalassotherapy, about 30 varieties of seaweed are used today, most often kelp, fucus and ascophyllum. They contain a whole range of substances necessary for any skin. The multifaceted properties of brown seaweed are due to a rich set of trace elements that stimulate cell activity, mineral salts restore skin balance, amino acids nourish it and supply energy. The high content of omega-3 unsaturated fatty acids, which restore the structure of collagen, a fibrillar connective tissue protein that determines skin elasticity, is priceless.

marine formula

Marine collagen is so named because it is extracted in a special way from the skin, bones and scales of marine fish. It contains 9 out of 10 essential amino acids for the body. Moreover, marine collagen peptides, well “purified” and processed using a special technology, have high bioavailability: our skin absorbs and absorbs them perfectly. All this helps to achieve a good anti-aging effect. Creams with marine collagen smooth and tighten the skin, increasing its level of elasticity from the inside.

Rich formula

Living on land, we have long been accustomed to herbal cosmetics. But this is not a reason to give her preference over the sea. Those substances that are present in plants are also found in the composition of seafood, but in a higher concentration; this is especially true of the iconic omega-3 acid. There are also unique substances in the ocean that simply cannot be found on the shore. Marine "endemics", for example, include complex carbohydrates useful for the skin - alginates and carrageenans.

Valuable Powder

Seashells are used to make powder for dermabrasion - deep mechanical peeling. Crushed corals are used for more gentle exfoliating treatments. Mother-of-pearl powder is a common ingredient in lotions and body powders that add radiance. It is curious that in Arab countries it is still used to protect the skin from sunburn. Shining on the skin, mother-of-pearl particles reflect ultraviolet light.

Precious Placer

Pearls are valued not only by jewelers. Recently, many cosmetics manufacturers have also paid attention to the natural properties of this “sea stone”. Pearl powder began to be added to creams that rejuvenate the skin and increase its elasticity. Pearls are used in different forms. It’s great if “pearl powder” is indicated in the composition of the product: this means that the stones have not been chemically processed. But hydrolysates (in the list of components they are often referred to as "pearl proteins") may be less useful - the concentration of useful substances in them is less.

Durable carapace

From the shell of the Far Eastern and Alaskan crab, scientists learned how to extract the extremely valuable component of chitosan, from which special oligosaccharides were then isolated. These bioactive substances are already being called the medicine of the 21st century. Chitosan oligosaccharides are able to attach to themselves and remove toxins, radioactive substances, and excess fat from the body. In addition, they “trigger” immune responses, have antitumor activity, and lower cholesterol levels in the blood. In medicine, chitosan is used as a wound healing and anti-burn agent; its antibacterial properties have already been discovered. Of course, such a valuable component is also used in cosmetology. Hair dyes, masks, creams, therapeutic and prophylactic products for our curls, skin and nails with chitosan are no longer a rarity.

The concentration of useful substances, especially salts, in the waters of the Dead Sea is much higher than in all other marine and even ocean areas.

Face in the dirt

Biologists still don't understand why Dead Sea mud can do so much. But it is known that the structure of this substance is really unique. It is believed that our body reacts to it so favorably due to the presence of bromide and sulfate compounds in its composition, which are present in human blood serum and lymphatic fluid. All these necessary components, once in the bloodstream, are of great benefit and heal not only the skin. You can talk about the amazing properties of the Dead Sea mud for a long time. It speeds up metabolic processes, facilitates the supply of oxygen and the delivery of nutrients to tissues, activates blood flow, renews cells and stimulates regeneration processes, increases turgor and skin tone. And this list is still incomplete.

Red and black

Cosmetic brands are increasingly offering us a new panacea for aging - products with an extract of red and black caviar. And we must give them their due: this is not a marketing ploy. We are talking about the same caviar that we used to smear on sandwiches. But its nutritional properties are useful not only for health, but also for maintaining youthful skin, as well as for accelerating hair growth. Cosmetics based on both varieties of caviar have a stimulating effect, so it can be safely prescribed to all women after 35. Its main secret is that it impressively activates collagen production, which allows the skin to remain smooth and supple for longer. In addition, the minerals and vitamins contained in red caviar stimulate the regeneration of skin cells, activate metabolism and even block the action of free radicals. Add to this the property of red caviar to soften, moisturize and protect the skin from stress, and then you will understand why it is so useful to use red caviar at least occasionally to rejuvenate the skin. However, due to the rather high cost of ingredients and technologies, only a few famous world brands produce it, so bold statements on the packaging should be treated objectively.

Since 1978, according to the UN resolution, on September 28, the planet celebrates World Maritime Day. The globe is washed by almost 71% of the water. And most of it is the seas and oceans. They are of great importance in the life of mankind and all life on the planet. But have you ever wondered what role the sea plays in the development of cosmetology? And it's not just the widespread sea bath salts. We list seven significant seafood that are used in cosmetics.

This is perhaps the first thing that comes to mind when talking about marine ingredients in cosmetics. The salt concentration in the seas and oceans is on average 3.4-3.6 (about 35 g of salt per liter of water). Mostly it is sodium chloride, but sea salt contains a lot of other elements: sulfates, magnesium, iodine, calcium, potassium, etc. For more than 4000 years, salt has been collected after the evaporation of sea water in the sun. Grains of salt come in different sizes and shades (white, gray, pink, red, blue).

Cosmetics with sea salt helps maintain a healthy shine of the strands, gently cleanse the skin of dead cells, moisturize and nourish it with useful minerals. The skin after salt baths is well cleansed and healed, thanks to the antiseptic properties of salt. The blood flow is normalized, which positively affects both the skin and other organs of the body.

In many spa salons, the service of exfoliating the skin with sea salt is common. Such peeling relieves the skin of old cells and accelerates the growth of new cells. This procedure can be carried out at home with the help of cosmetic scrubs with sea salt. It is important not to repeat the peeling more than once or twice a week, so as not to damage the protective shell of the skin. Since salt tends to dry out the body, you should always use a moisturizer after it.

2. Sea water for the body

In its composition, the water in the sea resembles the plasma in the human body. This largely explains why we enjoy swimming in sea water. The body after bathing calms down, and the skin becomes clearer. Cosmetics with sea water in the composition also includes other marine products: algae, collagen, salt. Manufacturers dedicate whole series of products marked "seafood" to such components.

First of all, sea water is an opportunity for the mild effect of the salt dissolved in it. But there are many other useful substances in the sea that have a beneficial effect on skin health. They nourish it, soothe it and increase its elasticity. Together with the blood flow in sea water, the acid-base balance of the skin is normalized, and toxins are more effectively removed from skin cells. That is why the skin recovers faster and stays young longer. A significant role in this is played by iodine in the composition of water, which has a positive effect on many internal organs of the body.

The beauty industry loves algae-created molecules because of their many benefits for body care. Now cosmetics with seaweed is not a novelty. It is produced by many well-known brands in the world. Algae of different types and shades (red, brown, green) are used - there are a great many of them in the oceans.

Most often, algae is used in the manufacture of moisturizing, tonic and cleansing creams and masks. These seafood produce molecules, secondary metabolites, that help the skin regenerate itself. They improve collagen production and accelerate intracellular metabolism, which is why they are often used for the production of anti-cellulite products. In addition, cosmetics with algae protect the skin well from the harmful effects of UV rays.

4. Marine makeup sponges

There is another product in the sea that is used in the cosmetic industry - a sponge. Most often, natural sponges are obtained from them for applying and removing cosmetics. With proper care, sea sponges can be used for quite a long time. Unlike napkins and cotton wool, eco sponges do not have a synthetic fragrance and do not leave behind chemical microparticles (for example, dioxins) on the skin. With the help of sponges, it is not only convenient to wash off makeup, but also to massage the skin and body, freeing it from old cells.

In addition to makeup sponges, sea sponges make excellent products for washing the skin, for manicure and pedicure. They act gently and effectively. With their help, the skin is deeply cleansed and well smoothed. Sea sponges are biodegradable and contain healthy marine minerals, natural enzymes that help fight bacteria and odors. Therefore, sponges retain their freshness and their original properties for a long time.

5. Marine collagen for wrinkles

Scientists say that among all types of collagen, marine collagen is the closest to the proteins of the human body. It is obtained from the scales and skin of fish that live deep in the sea. Fish collagen cosmetics are very popular all over the world for the ability of the protein to be easily digested and strengthen the connective tissue in the human body. Collagen from marine fish began to be extracted in the 1970s. Collagen, derived from the skin of poultry and animals, could not penetrate deep into the skin to replace damaged cells, and often caused allergies.

According to numerous experiments, the absorption of marine collagen is much higher than that of other types of collagen. Its structure is similar to collagen in the human body. This was appreciated by official medicine and began to produce medicinal preparations based on fish protein, which help to normalize the functioning of the nervous system, strengthen joints, heart, muscles and blood vessels. By consuming marine collagen supplements, you can not only get an extra portion of it, but also stimulate the production of your own collagen in the body. Fish protein is actively used in anti-aging cosmetology for anti-aging procedures. It helps to restore the skin, maintain its elasticity and youth.

There are several types of clays in the world, most of which are successfully used in cosmetology. One of them is gray sea clay. It is extracted from the deep bottom of the seas and oceans. Clay is famous primarily for its tonic, cleansing and moisturizing properties. It will be especially useful for those with dry skin. The most common way to use gray clay is in face masks. However, it is important to remember the precautions and keep the clay on the skin for no more than five minutes so that the mask does not completely dry out. Too frequent procedures with clay can dry out the epidermis and damage the protective shell of the skin.

On sale this product is found both in powder form and in the form of a creamy structure. Sometimes it is partially included in cosmetics. Gray clay is used as a detergent for body and hair care, health procedures are carried out with it, compresses are made and the skin is prepared for depilation. Clay also takes good care of dry strands - masks from it give hair shine and density.

7. Squalene Anti Aging Skin

This marine product got its name from the Latin word "squalus", which means "shark". It was first mined by Japanese scientists at the beginning of the 20th century from shark liver and seaweed. After studying the chemical compounds of squalene (organic unsaturated hydrocarbon), scientists came to the conclusion that it is able to fight the first signs of aging of the skin and other organs of the body.

Squalene is often referred to as the "oxygen vitamin" because it reacts with the water in the human body to release oxygen and saturate skin cells with it. However, this substance is capable of producing not only marine inhabitants, but also almost all living creatures on the planet, including humans (squalene in his body is about 250 nanograms per milliliter). When this product is not enough, the skin and body begin to age quickly and become vulnerable to various ailments. But an excess of squalene is harmful, especially for sensitive skin. Therefore, before using cosmetic products or dietary supplements with squalene, you should definitely consult a doctor.
