Reviews mention

  • Luxurious glass packaging aesthetics
  • Hydrating seaweed-based formulations

  • Cumbersome pumps and dispensers
  • Occasional pilling and heaviness

Osea earns strong reviews for effective, spa-like skincare—especially Undaria Algae Body Oil, Ocean Cleanser, and body butters that deliver lasting hydration, smoother texture, and a non-greasy glow—while drawbacks include often-strong citrus/herbal fragrance, occasional sensitivity or irritation, finicky pumps/glass packaging, and inconsistent results from acne treatments. Overall the brand is good for dry or sensitive-leaning skin seeking clean, seaweed-based formulas and luxe sensoriality, but fragrance tolerance and texture preferences matter.

  • The body oil is a holy grail product for me. The scent is so relaxing and complex, the hydrating power is amazing and I love the soft glow it leaves on my skin!

  • I was recommended the Collagen Dream Night Cream by a friend for a moisturizer and retinol all in one. Turns out my skin is quite sensitive and after using it for 2 days it really dried out my skin and messed up my skin barrier. I had some redness under my eyes -- if you have sensitive skin I'd recommend trying it out on a small patch for a night or two before putting it on your entire face.

  • Osea's focus on marine-based ingredients is fantastic. Their skincare products harness the power of the ocean in a sustainable way, providing effective solutions for healthier skin.

  • this brand is so luxurious, I especially love the oils and how they feel/smell!

  • I love this brand, however the price point means I don’t buy it a ton. I love that it’s a family company and natural ingredients. The hand cream is a favorite.

  • Osea was one of the first clean beauty brands that I discovered and I love how amazing their products smell while also being extremely effective.

  • One of my favorite skincare/personal care brands. It's expensive so I don't use it all the time, but the two products I love most are the blemish balm as a light summertime face moisturizer and the hyaluronic seaweed serum -- so good. Beautiful glass packaging as well.

  • I use and adore their Advance Protection Cream. I have extremely sensitive, acne prone skin and this hydrates it without any irritation. It is fragrance free but has a very, very light scent from the ingredients that is extremely pleasant.

  • The OSEA products I have tried are beautiful, effective, and smell so great!

  • These products absolutely changed my body - my skin has never felt so soft! If you don't like citrus though, this range might not be for you.

  • As soon as I started using Osea my skin changed drastically. They are the ultimate CLEAN beauty brand IMO. I use the atmosphere protective cream, the ocean cleanser, the seabiotic cream, the body oil (my MOST favorite product), and the anti-aging balm. The hyaluronic serum is also so wonderful. Most products come in glass bottles too which really makes me happy. You do have to make sure and use the products, they cannot sit too long or they'll go bad. (i think due to the seaweed)

  • This review is for Osea's Undaria Algae Oil, the only product I've tried from the brand. 5/5 stars for scent and the way it makes my skin feel The oil itself doesn't spread well unless you apply to your body when slightly wet OR mix with another oil or lotion. I prefer to mix a few drops with some jojoba oil so I can get more uses out of my travel size. The packaging is heavy and luxurious. I love the simple branding. I will definitely save the bottle once empty for travel. My only qualm is the price- I can't justify a $50+ body oil that doesn't work miracles on me.

  • I have only used their body care but it is absolutely dreamy. A staple in my routine for the past 5 years!

  • The difference in my skin's texture after using this line is truly astonishing - it's never felt so silky and hydrated!

    Received a free product from Osea
  • I received the anti-aging body balm and the salt of the earth body scrub as gifts. The body balm is absolutely luxurious and my absolute favorite. It's kind of a combination of lotion and moisturizes well without being overly greasy. I have dry skin and usually look for a heavier cream. Wish it came in a bigger bottle and was more affordable!

  • These products are such a luxury skincare experience but the clean ingredients and calming scents are so worth the price! The products also last ages.

  • I have tried a few products from OSEA and have had various experiences: Ocean Cleansing Mudd Overall, this has helped manage my oily skin without being too stripping/drying. After emptying two bottles, I have since subscribed to this individual item! I use this once a day as part of my nighttime skincare routine. Sometimes I will use it in the morning if I need a little boost to wake myself up. Speaking of, this is really minty! If you're not used to it or if you have very sensitive skin, I don't recommend picking up this product. So when using, it is recommended to avoid the eye area; I recommending removing any eye makeup first with a cleansing balm or oil and then rinsing. Sea Minerals Mist This is such a lifesaver during the summer months in Southern California! It is so cooling and hydrating, and extra refreshing especially when leave it inside the refrigerator. I have the travel-sized bottle and it is super handy when I am out and about and need a boost. Essential Corrective Complex This is meant to help with blemished-prone skin, but unfortunately I didn't find it very effective on my acne/pimples. However, I will say that this has helped with itchy skin! Sometimes I experience itchiness/irritation and this handy rollerball is helpful when relieving that icky sensation. Since finishing one rollerball, I decided to not repurchase it again. Undaria Algae Body Butter + Body Oil These are my absolute favorite OSEA products. I use these almost every night after a nice long shower, and it has always left my skin feeling so smooth and moisturized. These are especially lifesavers during the winter months when my skin is drier than usual. Same with the Ocean Cleansing Mudd, I have since subscribed to these products as they have become a part of my bodycare routine.

  • Lovely high end product line that really works. I've been working in the Beauty industry for most of my career and I can tell you this works. I especially love a juicy serum and this one is one of the best for the price point. Go get em!

  • I got the oil and absolutely loved it! It soaks into the skin and doesn't leave you oily. No overpowering smell and leaves your skin soft. What's not to love?!

  • Expensive but I love the blemish balm and the atmosphere protection cream! Well worth the price as it lasts a long time, and the glass bottles are very nice.
