Brand and Product Questions
-
How do you pronounce OSEA and what does it stand for?
Great question! OSEA is pronounced Ooh-sea-yah! OSEA stands for the core elements of wellness and our source of inspiration: Ocean, Sun, Earth, Atmosphere.
-
How do I unlock and use the pump on my product?
- 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.
If you need any additional assistance with your pump, please reach out to our Customer Care Team here!
-
How do I find the right products for me?
We’d love to help! You can visit individual product pages to find out more about each product or shop by “Benefits” on any page for your skin type. Take our Skincare Quiz for even more personalized results.

How do I layer my body care and skincare?
Skincare
As a reminder, wait a few moments after each step to allow the product to absorb! Learn more here.
1. Cleanser
2. Toner
3. Serum
4. Eye Cream
5. Moisturizer
6. Face oil
Eye Care
Follow the steps below to use both the Ocean Eyes® Age-Defying Eye Serum and Advanced Repair Eye Cream together.
1. Apply the Ocean Eyes® Age-Defying Serum on clean dry skin.
2. Gently roll under eyes and around the orbital bone 2-3 times.
3. Using your ring finger, smooth serum until fully absorbed
4. Then gently press Advanced Repair Eye Cream onto the orbital bone using your ring finger.
Body Care
If you’d like to combine and layer our body-care products, here are a few options. As a reminder, when in doubt, layer with the thinnest product to the thickest and finish off with an oil.
Here are a few other options if you're looking for extra hydration!
1. For an extra layer of hydration, start with the Hyaluronic Body Serum, followed by your favorite body moisturizer(s).
2. For a glowier finish, use the Undaria Algae™ Body Butter or Undaria Algae™ Body Lotion followed by Undaria Algae™ Body Oil or Anti-Aging Body Balm.
3. Create your own body-care cocktail by blending the Undaria Algae™ Body Lotion, Undaria Algae™ Body Oil and Anti-Aging Body Balm together. Just a note, mixing these products will increase the fragrance, so depending on how much fragrance you like, you may want to use the fragrance free lotion when mixing with an oil.
4. Alternate between each body moisturizer in the morning and evening or use them on their own! -
Where are your products made?
Our skincare products are all manufactured in California from globally sourced ingredients!
-
What is the shelf life of your products?
All OSEA products have a PAO (Period After Opening, or freshness period from first use) of 12 months, with the exception of our Seabiotic® Water Cream, Undaria Algae™ Body Butter, and Ocean Cleanser, which have a 6-month PAO. If unopened, they last 2.5 years from the manufacturing date. To maximize shelf life, store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, heat, humidity, and excess moisture. If you have any questions, please reach out to Customer Care for support here.
-
Are all of your products packaged in glass?
Our products are packaged in glass except for our body scrubs and body wash which are packaged in 50% PCR (post-consumer recycled) plastic. We believe this is the safest option possible for a product that is being used in the bath or shower.
-
Is your packaging recyclable?
Our product packaging is recyclable. However, the availability of recycling of frosted and printed glass varies municipality to municipality. If your local recycling does not take frosted or printed glass we recommend TerraCycle. If you live in the L.A. area, you can participate in our Recycling Program at our Venice Skincare Studio.
How It Works:
- You bring back your empty OSEA products to our Venice Studio and we ensure that each glass bottle is recycled properly.
- For every 6 full size or 1oz travel size products returned, you receive a $40 credit toward services.
-
My product arrived without a seal, should I be concerned?
Nope! Only some of our products have a seal on them.
-
Are your products vegan and cruelty-free?
We’ve been vegan and cruelty-free (and proud of it!) since 1996. Our products are plant-based and free from all animal-derived ingredients such as lanolin, beeswax, carmine and more. We are certified Vegan through PETA's Beauty Without Bunnies and Leaping Bunny Certified.
-
Do OSEA products contain preservatives?
We choose our preservative systems based on their safety and efficacy. If a product contains one drop of water, even in the form of aloe vera juice, a preservative is needed to maintain freshness, guarantee shelf life and prevent the growth of harmful bacteria and mold.
-
Are OSEA products gluten-free?
Yes, all our products have been tested to be gluten-free. As with any new products, if you have serious allergies, we recommend that you consult with a doctor or do a patch test first.
-
Is it normal for product color to vary bottle to bottle?
Absolutely! Because we don’t use artificial colors in our products and our Seaweed is variable in color, there are natural variations in the color of our products. In our Undaria Algae™ Oil it is not uncommon for our products to develop Seaweed sediment at the bottom of the bottle over time, it’s totally natural and does not affect the quality or efficacy of the product. Additionally, OSEA uses both essential oils and natural fragrance to achieve the aromas of some of our products. Essential oils are aromatic extracts concentrated from plants that retain the essence of their origin. Natural fragrance is a blend of aromatic compounds and essential oils extracted from different parts of plants including flowers and fruits. Due to the nature of these fragrances, a product smell can vary over time!
-
Is it safe to use your products while I'm pregnant or nursing?
We know that navigating self-care safety while pregnant or breastfeeding is challenging, and though our mission is to create safer-for-you products, as with any skincare or supplement, follow your doctor's guidance.
-
Where can I get an OSEA facial?
We offer our signature OSEA treatments at our Venice Skincare Studio on Abbot Kinney in Venice. You can also check out our “Featured Partner” page for a list of featured spas, or reach out to us at support@oseamalibu, or through Live Chat 8 AM - 5 PM PT for recommendations.
