SEAWEED-BASED TREATMENTS.
Seaweed has a natural tightening and firming effect. In addition to the detoxifying and slimming properties of seaweed, it aids in collagen synthesis and is naturally abundant in anti-oxidants and essential fatty acids. The ocean's nutrients, minerals such as zinc, copper and silica, rare trace elements, vitamins and proteins, are soaked into the bloodstream to revitalize skin and body.
