What does Potent Sea Kelp Facial Masque do?
This is your multitasking treatment room powerhouse — a whipped kaolin clay mask infused with five wild-harvested kelps and three sources of vitamin C that cleanses, brightens, firms, and hydrates in a single application. It draws out impurities and manages excess oil while delivering the nourishing benefits of marine polysaccharides and potent antioxidants. For spa professionals, this mask works like a workout for the skin: it actively engages multiple pathways to leave clients with a visibly brighter, smoother, firmer complexion. Recognized by aestheticians as a top choice in leading spas across North America, it’s suitable for all skin types and all skin tones — including hypersensitive skin.
What makes Potent Sea Kelp Facial Masque unique?
Five kelps. Three vitamin Cs. One transformative mask.
The five-kelp complex:

The triple vitamin C complex:

- Ascorbyl palmitate (vitamin C ester) — penetrates skin tissue and stimulates collagen production
- Fruit extracts (cranberry, raspberry, blueberry) — natural vitamin C sources plus additional antioxidants
The purifying base:
- Kaolin clay — gentle purification and exfoliation; draws out impurities without stripping moisture
- Aloe vera — hydrating, soothing, promotes youthful-looking skin
- Vegetable glycerin — moisture magnet that softens the complexion
- Rose hip, apricot, and neem oils — nourishing botanical support
What it’s free from:

How do I use Potent Sea Kelp Facial Masque in treatments?
Basic application protocol:
- After cleansing and any exfoliation steps, apply mask generously with brush or fingertips
- Cover face, neck, and décolleté evenly
- Leave on for 10-15 minutes or until dry
- Remove with warm, wet face cloth
- Follow with Sea Splash Toning Essence and appropriate serum
Pro tips for application:
- Apply a medium-thick layer — too thin and it dries too quickly; too thick and it won’t set properly
- Use a fan brush for smooth, even application
- Work in sections: face first, then neck, then décolleté
- The mask will change colour slightly as it dries — this indicates it’s working
- Remove gently with a warm, damp cloth using circular motions for added exfoliation benefit

What are some spa therapist tips for maximizing results?
- For enhanced relaxation — while the mask is on, apply rehydrated Seaflora Seaweed Eye Masques to the under-eye area for a full spa experience
- For deeper penetration — apply mask after steaming or warm towel application; open pores allow better absorption of the vitamin C and seaweed actives
- For congested skin — use as a pre-extraction step; the kaolin loosens impurities and makes extractions easier and less traumatic
- For brightening boost — layer a vitamin C serum underneath the mask for intensified results
- For neck and décolleté — always extend the mask to these areas; they show aging and sun damage and respond beautifully to treatment
- For dry skin clients — apply a thin layer of facial oil before the mask to prevent any tightness; the mask will still work while the oil provides extra nourishment
- For oily skin clients — let the mask dry fully for maximum oil-absorbing benefits
- For time efficiency — the 10-15 minute mask time is perfect for performing hand, arm, or scalp massage
