The skincare experts at ARRAN Sense of Scotland share their knowledge on the beauty benefits of seaweed, as well as picking the best seaweed products from their range.  
 
One of the best sellers from its apothecary range, ARRAN Sense of Scotland’s Seaweed and Sage collection is available across a range of hair and skincare products.  Sage and Seaweed soap, shampoo, conditioner, shower gel and body lotion are formulated with purifying and mineral-rich seaweed extract as well as sweet-smelling lemon, geranium, and orange for a revitalising start to your day. Seaweed extract is an excellent skin and body care ingredient,  it cleanses and detoxifies while also increasing moisture and reducing pigmentation. 
 
Cleansing and detoxing 
 One benefit of seaweed is that it cleanses and detoxifies naturally. In some forms it can be used as an exfoliant to brighten skin clearing  build-up of dirt and bacteria to uncover radiant looking freshness.
 The Apothecary Seaweed and Sage Bath and Shower Gel is available at £14.00.
