Seavite is a new brand to me, I'd never heard of them before coming across the range in a pharmacy/health food shop while in Ireland. I was immediately drawn to the cleanser (of course) and the fact that it's an Irish brand.
Seavite is a Galway-based skincare brand started in the 1980's by Patrick Mulrooney, with the goal of curing his daughters' eczema. He believed that the ocean was a source of healing and regenerative ingredients just waiting to be harnessed and saw how living near it seemed to soothe his daughters' skin.
From the Seavite site -
Through combining pure botanicals and nutrient-rich Irish seaweed extracts, Patrick formulated the Seavite range, which fast earned cult beauty status, thanks to its profound powers of skin transformation.
Daughters, Katherine, and Jane, both went on to become medical doctors, with Masters’ in Clinical Dermatology. They’ve dedicated their entire careers to healing sensitive skin conditions and solving ageing concerns. The now iconic Irish doctors have built on their father’s legacy, by reformulating the Seavite range, using the latest scientific developments and proven anti-ageing ingredients, while staying true to the brand’s core values of purity and healing.
Dr. Katherine and Dr. Jane Mulrooney use Seavite products on all patients in their renowned Dublin skin clinic. They believe that every skin type can benefit from the calming and regenerating magic of the Atlantic sea, captured in Seavite and fine-tuned by science.
I'm certainly not short of cleansers but I fell in love with the ethos of the brand, the fact that it's run by clinical dermatologists, the simple but beautiful packaging and of course, the fact that it's not only Irish but from Galway where my Dad's from.
Packaging - Sturdy white plastic, pump. Good for travel. My only issue (and it's a small one) is that the pump dispenses quite a small amount of product and I have to pump it 4-6 times to get my ideal amount of product.
Price - €25
Ingredients - Aqua (water) Capylic/Capric Triglyceride, Sesamum indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil, Rosa Centifolia Flower Water,Glycerin, Dimenthicone, Cetearyl Alcohol, Glycerin Stearate, Peg – 20 Stearate, Peg -100 Stearate, Fucus Vesiculosus, Ascophyllum Nodosum, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C), Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Triethanolamine, Caprylyl Glycol, Phenoxeyethanol, Geraniol, Citronellol
Scent - Almost none, slightly 'seaweed', not unpleasant
Texture - It's a cream cleanser, quite light and not sticky or greasy
Use - AM or second PM cleanse. It does a reasonable job of removing make-up, but I prefer to use it as a second cleanse and let my skin benefit from the ingredients rather than wash them down the sink.
For who? I would say anyone who doesn't have allergies to Sesame Oil, Dimethicone or Citronello - none of these bother me.
Verdict - I really like this cleanser. It's gentle and effective and leaves my skin feeling cleansed and soft, AM or PM. It reminds me of my beloved Alpha H Balancing Cleanser. I would be interested in trying some of their other products, notably the Super Nutrient Toning Sea Spray.
Availability - Seavite have a website that appears to ship worldwide and allows you to calculate shipping and tax. They also list their stockists in Ireland by county.
Have you tried anything from the Seavite range?
Thanks for reading!
