I am totally obsessed with Osea—a.k.a, the seaweed-infused skincare brand Victoria Beckham uses on repeat. I first discovered the California-based brand in the spring, and all through the summer I kept my thirsty 45-year-old skin quenched with a variety of the brand’s turn-back-the-hands-of-time body products. I also dabbled in its nourishing skin care, as well.

The one ingredient that makes Osea products unique is obviously seaweed, a “superfood rich in vitamins, minerals and nutrients,” the brand explains. Not only does it boast hydrating and anti-aging benefits, but all of the products smell clean and fresh, with a hint of the ocean. (They’re also vegan and cruelty-free.) Below, check out my eight go-to Osea products for smooth, firm skin.

8 Best Osea Products

Undaria Algae Body Oil

I used to shy away from body oil as I am not a fan of slippery, oily skin. However, Undaria Algae Body Oil has become one of my all-time favorite products. Not only is it incredibly hydrating and manages to tighten sagging skin, but absorbs pretty quickly into skin leaving behind a fresh and citrusy scent.

Hyaluronic Body Serum

I am so obsessed with Osea Hyaluronic Body Serum that I already wrote a whole review about the game-changing product. It’s “packed with great ingredients,” according to Nazanin Saedi, MD, board-certified dermatologist at Dermatology Associates of Plymouth Meeting, including five molecular weights of hyaluronic acid. “Different weight hyaluronic acid helps attract moisture into the skin,” she previously InStyle. Niacinamide is “helpful for decreasing inflammation and calming the skin” and smoothing the skin, she added, while algae “will also help calm the skin.”

Ocean Eyes Age Defying Serum

Whenever I have tired eyes, I rely on the cleverly cooling Ocean Eyes Age Defying Serum roller ball for rejuvenation. Infused with seaweed, hyaluronic acid, caffeine, and peptides help smooth fine lines, lighten dark circles, and depuff eye bags.

Undaria Algae Body Wash

I don’t usually recommend splurging on body wash, but Undaria Algae Body Wash transforms my shower into a spa and is worth every last cent. Not only does the instant refresher smell amazing, but leaves my post-bathing skin feeling revitalized and hydrated.

Vagus Nerve Bath Oil

I am bather. Some people unwind and relax at the end of a long day with a glass of wine. I soak in the tub for 30 minutes.  Vagus Nerve Bath Oil soothes and softens my skin while blissing me out with the botanical blend of essential oils.

Hyaluronic Lip Booster

A new addition to the Osea collection, this naturally plumping lip treatment is my secret overnight weapon for fuller, more hydrated lips. Clinical studies for the Hyaluronic Lip Booster found that 100 percent of testers saw significant improvement in lip volume and hydration after just one night’s use.

Advanced Protection Cream
