H2O Plus Sea Pure Natural Line – A Review

Very recently I received samples of the H2O Plus Sea Pure 98% Natural Line to review from BeautyStat.

This skincare line is 100% vegan and 98% natural. It doesn’t contain synthetic frangrances, parabens, petrochemicals, phthalates or sulfates. The ingredients seem to be very high quality. The company is cruelty free and against animal testing. All of these points make the products awesome from my point of view.

Unfortunately for me, my skin hates it. I couldn’t make it through using the products for a week without my skin getting red and blotchy. However, I figured I should still share my initial observations about the products with you.

Creamy Facial Cleanser – $20

The ingredients in this product are:
Water (Aqua), Sorbitol, Glycerin, Stearic Acid, Myristic Acid, Lauric Acid, Potassium Hydoxide, Glyceryl Stearate, Beeswax (Cera Alba), Polyglyceryl-3 Diisostearate, Benzyl Alcohol, Phenoxyethanol, Limonene, Sodium Cocoyl Apple Amino Acids, Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) Extract, Chlorphenesin, Sodium Cocoyl Amino Acids, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Peel Oil, Pelargonium Graveolens Flower Oil, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Juniperus Mexicana Oil, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Oil

I’m actually wondering if the acids in the product are what is irritating my sensitive skin. The cleanser works well and it smells awesome, as it’s very citrusy/lemony in scent, but I think this product was the one that most irritated my skin. After I would use it in the mornings, my face would be all  red and blotchy. I tried using toner after using this product, and it didn’t seem to diminish the redness at all.

Sea Pure Deep Moisture Cream – $40

I tried using this moisturizer a few times but it seemed really… greasy and heavy on my skin. It didn’t seem to work well with my slightly oily skin but would probably be better for someone who has dry skin.

Gentle Refining Polish – $30

The gentle refining polish actually did seem very gentle on my skin. However, it’s not something I could use more than once or twice a week. And in fact, I only used it twice.

Renewing Prep Tonic – $18

The prep tonic seems nice. I think if you’re someone who likes toners you’ll probably like this product. I don’t feel like this one irritated my skin, and was actually fairly refreshing to use.

Sea Results Deep Sleep Recovery Cream – $54

I’m not sure if this one irritated my skin or not. When I used it, it made my face feel a bit tingly. However, I did wake up with my skin feeling well moisturized in the morning.

Overall
Overall, I love the concept of this line. I love the ingredients. I love that it’s vegan. The packaging is very serene and I like the blue and white. I love the citrus smell. Unfortunately, it just does not work for my sensitive, finicky skin. However, I think that it would work better for people without sensitive skin, and possibly work really well for people with dry skin. I do feel like some of the product prices are really expensive and I personally wouldn’t spend $54 on a night cream.

If I had to recommend a product from this line to try, I’d probably recommend the toner or the Deep Sleep Recovery Cream.

PR samples were sent for my consideration. All opinions are my own.
