Gift card purchases and subscription orders are excluded from earning and redeeming OSEA Catch Credits.

If you return part of your purchase, we will prorate the OSEA Catch Credits you earned for that purchase based on your new order total. If you return the full order, your OSEA Catch Credits will be voided.
In the event you've already redeemed the OSEA Catch Credits you earned on that purchase, your refund will be adjusted down by the amount of the OSEA Catch Credits redeemed. The same is true if you gifted the OSEA Catch Credits and they've already been claimed: your refund will be adjusted down by the amount of credits gifted.

Most of our products are packaged in glass. Our body scrubs are packaged in PP plastic for a safe bath time experience.
-
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:

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?

-
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.
-
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.
