- Here's a step-by-step guide to help you unlock and use your pump effectively:
1. Hold your product firmly to prevent it from spinning as you try to unlock the pump.
2. Locate the small white plastic circle right below the pump's neck and hold it tightly.
3. Using your other hand, turn the pump counter clockwise to unlock it. Note that you do not need to push down while you twist, as our pumps do not 'pop up' once unlocked.
4. To prime the pump, press down a few times until the product dispenses.

I really wanted to love this cleanser, but after two weeks of use I just couldn’t anymore. My breakouts started when I introduced this product and just kept getting worse. I did love the feel and smell of it, but it made me break out horribly..

Out with the old. I used La Mer for decades, but in my mid-40s, during perimenopause, I’ve become more aware of endocrine disruptors in skincare. I was disappointed to learn that, despite its steep price, La Mer is not a clean brand. As someone who has battled hormonal imbalance and fibroids for years, I assumed premium meant safer ingredients—unfortunately, it didn’t. I’ve since moved to OSEA

I love my facials, every Friday is spa day so I was excited to try this face polish deep cleansing mask after switching to clean products. The texture is beautiful, and it feels nice initially, but the mint essential oil is far too intense. With my compromised skin barrier, it stung badly and even brought me to tears. On a hot summer day, the cooling effect was pleasant, but the sting outweighed it. If you have sensitive , sensitized or damaged skin, avoid this. I wish there were a reduced mint or fragrance-free option I’ll jump on it.

It was love at first touxh when this magical elixir entered my life in the mid 1990s and never let go.
If I'm ever away from the healing properties of the sea for too long, this brings me home.
- JSJanet S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars2 weeks agoStill deciding...
I like this and the ocean cleanser. This seems to help my oiliness a little more. But some days don't need it and the ocean works great.
- MTMichelle T.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoLove this cleanser
Was a bit skeptical at first, but love all of the Osea products so tried it out. It leaves my skin so fresh and clean. I’m in my 60s and have sensitive skin - this has been just perfect!
- GEGary E.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoGreat Product
This is such a great product. I use it daily and my skin feels better
- JDJeannine D.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars4 weeks agoMud
Thought this would dry on my skin and it didn’t! A great cleanser and exfoliating.
- EMEla M.Verified BuyerRated 4 out of 5 stars1 month agoInvigorating!
This smells amazing and energizing! It feels good on skin and I like the natural ingredients. I didn’t give it 5 stars because I didn’t notice anything spectacular in how it cleaned my skin. I have only been using a couple of times if week per recommendations that it could be drying. I have had no drying using it this way. :) I really like all of my OSEA products!
- TSTeri S.Verified BuyerRated 5 out of 5 stars1 month agoWorks great!
I've had an area on my chin that just would not smooth out because of large pores, this worked great!
