7 Fathom’s Seaweed Skin Care Lotion is the answer to your skincare needs. The secret is a powerful active ingredient: Laminaria Digitata gel. This extract will leave your skin calmed, soothed, protected, nourished, and hydrated. It’s natural skin care that provides all the benefits of vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that are found in the ocean. 7 Fathom’s Seaweed Skin Care Lotion is the solution to aging skin, inflammation, acne, eczema, rosacea and psoriasis.
Laminaria Digitata:
7 Fathom’s Seaweed Skin Care Lotion is formulated to nourish and hydrate the skin. We use a non-chemical process to extract the main active ingredient, gel from Laminaria Digitata, Canadian seaweed. This super plant absorbs an abundance of natural vitamins, minerals and antioxidants from the ocean and is known for its anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties.
Why You Need Them:
Most anti-aging lotions boast of hydration with hyaluronic acid, but we wanted to do better. That’s why we use Fucoidans- a bio active gel extracted from sustainably hand harvested Canadian Seaweed. This natural ingredient also protects your skin- eliminating free radicals, reducing inflammation and wrinkles. Fucoidans have been reported to improve the elasticity, firmness, and brightness of skin.
Seaweed is a Natural Humectant:
Seaweed naturally retains moisture in the skin, but what does that mean? Without getting too scientific on you- it breaks down as this: seaweed contains humectants, which pull the water that is stored in the secondary layer of your skin, to the surface. This provides moisture for the topmost layer leaving you looking less flaky, and feeling less chafed and cracked. Our ingredients will also help you feel more radiant with exfoliation. Seaweed helps break down the proteins that hold dead skin cells together- leaving your skin with all the new radiancy that was hiding away beneath the surface!
At Grates Cove Studios, we meet people from all over the world. The question we often get is, “How did you start making seaweed lotion?” It all started with a walk along the shores of Grates Cove, Newfoundland after a winter storm. With my wife Courtney and our daughter, we went beachcombing and outdoor exploring, things that have always been a part of how I learn about my environment. A process which ultimately leads me to what I create.
On this particular day, I saw seaweed that had washed ashore after the storm. Picking it up, I started rubbing it on my hands. We returned to our studio, seaweed still in hand so I could continue to learn about it. Over those couple of days, I was fascinated by this ocean plant and continued to rub it on my hands. I noticed that my dry, cracked artist hands got immediate relief from the gel that covered this sea plant. Courtney and I both started researching the benefits of Seaweed for skin and our Seaweed Skin Care Lotion was created in 2015.

“[I] was very sceptical as my skin seems to react with every lotion I use! I’ve been using this one for 5 days now and the difference in the feel of my skin is unreal”
"I saw my esthetician today and she asked me what I was doing different because my skin looked radiant and my pores were smaller - I told her about your cream and she was amazed that a natural product was having such an effect on my skin!"
“This lotion is amazing. My granddaughter has a really bad rash on her face. My daughter started using this on it and it cleared up. Thanks Courtney.”
