For us, simplicity is a deliberate choice. It's a decision to remove the unnecessary and focus on the things that count.
It means less filler and more good things- like sustainably harvested Laminaria digitata extract packed with fucoidans, vitamines, antioxidants, and minerals of exceptional quality. It means simplified skincare, while still gettting amaing results.
Exceptionally rich in antioxidants. vitamins, and minerals, our seaweed (Laminaria digitata) is a highly prized ingredient in skincare formulations for its skin-beneficial properties. That’s why we have developed our own unique processes that ensure these rare bioactive compounds
are not lost or degraded during extraction.
Our sustainably hand-harvested Laminaria digitata seaweed boats
high concentrations of fucoidans, a bioactive compound with numerous skin-protective
benefits. Studies show that fucoidans
can reduce inflammation, stimulate collagen production, and inhibit melanin
synthesis to improve skin tone and clarity.
Although primarily known for its exceptional skin-nourishing power, Laminaria digitata is also an unparalleled humectant– meaning it delivers soothing ,
long-lasting hydration and protection to troubled skin of all types.
Our Story
One day, in the aftermath of a violent winter storm, our family began exploring the wreckage-strewn shores of our tiny cove.
There was seaweed everywhere. Our daughter picked up a frond and playfully slapped us with it. That’s when we noticed a gel-like substance coming from the seaweed.
In the days, months, and years since that moment, that gel has become our obsession. A single-minded pursuit to respectfully unlock Laminaria digitata’s secrets. A relentless focus on refining our extraction processes. Tweaking our formulas to ensure every ingredient works synergistically with seaweeds’ bioactive compounds to provide maximum benefit. And making sure that every product we create is wholly sustainable and respectful of the ocean –and the Earth’s – health and biodiversity.
Because we believe in the nurturing power of seaweed.

Firstly, a huge shout out to my sister for introducing us to this incredible product by 7 Fathoms. She had suffered from extremely dry, cracked hands for years. The seaweed skincare lotion has transformed her hands and achieved results that prescribed medications could not! On many occasions I’ve heard her say “I can’t believe my hands don’t feel like they’re on fire anymore!” It’s been such a game changer for her and I’m so glad she decided to share her win with my daughter and I.
We were given about a 1/4 of a bottle and within a week of using it we were literally fighting over what product was remaining. We were even hiding the bottle from one another..lol. IT’S THAT GOOD!!!
"I have Lupus of the skin. This product was a gift to me from a friend, and I absolutely love it! My skin was very dry and cracked. I tried other lotions, but was weary of what type of chemicals they contained, and what affect they would have on my skin due to my Lupus. The seaweed lotion is made from natural ingredients, which is awesome. It has totally transformed my skin, no more dry, itchy, and cracked skin, which has made me very happy.!"
"I’ve had a lot of issues with psoriasis since I was a small child, a lot of times in the winter my scalp would just bleed. It was so uncomfortable. Everything I tried would just make my hair greasy, or didn’t work. I was down in Grates Cove one day and mentioned my hair and scalp and Courtney mentioned that she was trying out a new product. She gave me some of this hair and scalp treatment and I’ve been using it ever since. "When my psoriasis acts up, I spray it right onto my skin. I’ll leave it on, wash it out, and it’s absolutely perfect. I haven’t had a flare-up since. Not only that, but people have started joking that I have ‘mermaid hair’! Now I understand why Ariel had such perfect hair all the time. The frizzies have gone; it feels like my hair belongs in the movies. It’s so soft, it’s so easy to deal with, and it dries so easily."
