The seaweed mask feels great on the skin. I used honey instead of glycerin (did not have it available).It totally makes the skin feel fresh and smooth. Visible results – finally my skin got back its natural glow. I am very happy with it! Great product!

Oh my God! This powder makes an amazing facial mask. Very stong odor, not a bad one though. I blended with avocado oil and cucumber extract (and added a drop of cucumber melon FO, to tone down the seaweed scent). I tested it on myself and the next day at work everyone commented on how radiant my skin looked! Made my skin feel softer and look smoother. I have rosacea, and it wasn't as bad after just one application. This powder is very easy to work with and blends well. Not hard to scent over.

Seaweed has a strong scent, but when mixed with essential oils and the dead sea mineral clay, the scent isn't displeasing. Your skin is left clean and glowing, just as promised. It even seems to help stop blemishes.

This was one the first things i tried once my shipment got here. I used a body scrub base with apricot shell exfolients, the seaweed powder, and some red current and thyme FO. After mixing all my ingredients, I must say, I loved this. My face felt amazing and refreshed, plus extremely clean but in a very natural way vs any chemical type of way. Made it soft and also tightened my skin while hyrdating. At first I got nervous when I saw the comments about the pungent smell and so forth, so I smelled it beforehand too, and it smelt amazing to me. Of course its not going to smell like peaches, but the smell is a bit undefinable and to me, I see it as a good scent, although the red current and thyme smell wasn't as strong as I'd have liked it to be, which may in part be due to the seaweed powder somewhat covering it, but not too much, which actually made it quite a nice balance of smell. Hope this helps =]

I know that its seaweed but the scent is really overpowering. I couldn't bear to have it on my skin. It never dried on my face. It was wet for the entire 20 mins I had it on.

All of the reviews ranted and raved over this product. I understand why. I used a tablespoon with australian beige clay mixed with a tablespoon of aloe vera gel and my goodness! My face looked brighter, my forehead looked normal and I believe this is going to aid the clearance of my acne covered cheeks and chin. I have ceased going to the dermatologist because after 28 years of using acne medicines, my skin just cannot take another steroid cream, or antibiotic ointment. My skin is completely fried and I am trying to rejuvenate it and bring it back to some semblance of normalcy through the products offered on this website. I am happy to report that it is coming back after only a few days of using the wonderful non-clogging carrier oils and this seeweed. It is going to be a slow recovery, but fortunately, I have the time and would like to thank this company for offering an abundance of chemically-free products that nourish and enrich the priceless elements of ourselves--our skin, hair, nails, and well-being. Thank you New Directions!

A pound of seaweed is so much seaweed! The scent is really only strong when the powder is very wet so I found it troublesome only when mixing it into a paste and then again when rinsing it off. There's some good exfoliating action when you're removing the mask. I've only used it once with a little mud and some rose water, but already my acne-riddled, extremely unhappy face feels a hundred times better.

I'm giving this 5 stars based on how well it works...Definitely NOT because of the scent! LoL If you like seafood, it won't bother you as much...I HATE seafood, so I had to grin and bear it...It didn't make me break out, a little goes a long way, and it does improve the circulation. I just think I'll use it on my lower body next time, not so close to my nose!

GET THIS. Try and LOVE IT. It's amazing. Seriously it's like a spa in a bottle. Just add a bit of water to the powder until its a paste and paint it on your face with a fat powder brush. It took out ALL the junk from my pores after I used it today (in conjunction with the mud mask). Love at first facial seriously. :)

I used this as a Face Mask the one suggested right here on this page, it does have a very strong smell but I liked it, it reminded me of being at a beach on a hot day and during this cold winter it was a nice memory to conjure up, I have sensitive skin and this made my skin feel really beautifully clean, the next morning my skint was still feeling great.

This a great product used alone with other muds for ace and/or body mask. The smell was a bit strong for me but won't keep me from using it again. I can't wait to try it as an addition to my homemade soaps!!

I've used this product combined with Dead Sea Mud and distilled water in a facial and body mask with very nice results. The odor may be too strong for some, but added EO's can easily cover it up.

Hello! I use seaweed powder for one of my cold process soap recipes. It leaves your skin very soft. My family and customers simply love it. It has a strong low tide smell to it when you mix it in your oil however I use Lemongrass essential oil to perfume my soap (about 3 Oz of it for a 5 pounds batch of soap) and the smell it very invigorating. You still smell the seaweed in the background but it is now compounding with the Lemongrass to give an attractive smell. When you mix it with your oil it turns to a pale shade of green, like avocado flesh. However after the gelling phase of the cold process it will turn a very dark, almost black green. You can make interesting swirls by keeping 1/3 of the batch before adding the seaweed and instead adding color. It tried with the emerald color, but it turned out to dark and hard to differentiate from the rest. Neon green or even neon yellow will give a very nice contrast

How could you not include seaweed into your skin care routine? It has nutrients and minerals and even has a slimming/toning effect on cellulite, not that I have any… who am I kidding?! NDA’s Seaweed Powder smells exactly how it should smell. It feels like I am basking along the shoreline at the beach. I haven’t tried my EOs with it, I wonder how they will blend together?

I incorporated this liberally as a facial and body mud. The resulting smell was stronger than I expect at first but after a while reminds me of seaweed salad at Japanese restaurants. Being Canadian made is a plus.

I am a Spa Therapist Student. I recently ordered this product. And, have used it on a couple of my clients during my practical training and they were amazed at the results. I used this product for my practical doing a few Seaweed Body Wraps. I used Seaweed before and didn't care for the smell of it. New Directions Seaweed smells fresh and beautiful. My clients love this product. I would order from New Directions again. I have to comment on the reliable customer service and fast shipping. Thank you, New Directions.
