Seaweed Benefits for Sensitive Skin and Rosacea
Calming & Soothing
The Bladderwrack seaweed we use in Phoenix & Providence skincare contains natural anti-inflammatory compounds such as fucoidan, which can help calm irritated skin. Rich in minerals such as zinc, magnesium and selenium, seaweed can help soothe redness and repair skin. Seaweed is also a rich in iodine known to help skin cell regeneration. These properties can reduce redness, alleviate itching, and promote an overall sense of relief for those dealing with skin sensitivity.
Balancing & Clarifying
Seaweed has natural detoxifying properties that can help remove impurities and balance the skin's oil production. This is particularly beneficial for individuals with rosacea-prone skin, as imbalances in sebum production can contribute to flare-ups and exacerbate symptoms. The minerals and amino acids found in seaweed work to purify the skin, regulate sebum production, and promote a clearer, more even-toned complexion.
Nourishing Hydration
The polysaccharides found in seaweed act as natural humectants, drawing and retaining moisture in the skin. This hydrating effect creates a protective barrier, preventing moisture loss and leaving the skin feeling supple and smooth.
Seaweed Skincare Ritual for Sensitive and Rosacea Prone Skin:
‘I cannot recommend highly enough all P & P products. I have to be careful what I use on my skin following extensive and aggressive cancer treatments. Phoenix & Providence is the best and the gentlest I have used. Seaweed has such healing properties and it shows. My skin is lovely and soft and supple, I would not use anything else now!’
