It’s officially June, which means that summer is right around the corner. For most parts of the country, it honestly feels like it’s already here. With temperatures steadily rising, there’s no better time to swap out those cold weather clothes for warm-weather ones and ditch that heavy skincare routine for something much more lightweight. Personally, I love the summertime, but I’m not a huge fan of what it does to my skin (or the maintenance involved in keeping up with it). Once it gets super hot and humid, the last thing I want to do is put on body lotion. And don’t judge me, but there have been days when I’d rather just walk around ashy because I don’t want to be sticky. But luckily, Osea dropped its first-ever body serum, so I won’t have that problem this year.
Just in case you’re unfamiliar, Osea is the seaweed-infused beauty brand that’s been used by countless celebs. It’s been reported that our faves like Victoria Beckham, Kelly Ripa, Emma Watson, and plenty more have all used Osea products — specifically their cult-favorite Undaria Algae Body Oil. The brand’s body products are truly top-tier, and now they’ve added one more to the lineup that’s the ultimate game changer for summer.
The new Hyaluronic Body Serum stands out as the ultimate hydration product for soft, moisturized skin all over. Its unique formulation includes “five molecular weights of hyaluronic acid” to boost the skin’s hydration. It also contains niacinamide, aloe, vegan peptides, and green microalgae, all of which are exceptional hydration ingredients that smooth and moisturize the skin’s barrier. Despite these rich nourishing ingredients, Osea has managed to create a silky, lightweight formula that feels incredible to apply.
As I said before, there are times when I really can’t be bothered with lotion — however, that doesn’t mean I like walking around with dry skin; I mean, who does? The body serum has changed that for me. It feels soft and silky to the touch, like any facial serum would without being sticky like lotion. My dry skin absorbs it quickly, leaving a nice, hydrated glow that lasts all day. The directions say you can follow with a body lotion or leave it as is, and during the cooler months, I probably would, but right now, with the warm weather, I like to stop with the serum. I find that I get the best results when I apply it immediately after getting out of the shower, just because my skin can get very dry with the climate I live in, but you can use it on damp or dry skin, and it’ll work just fine.
Despite being a new product, the Hyaluronic Body Serum has already garnered a strong following. It boasts an impressive 4.8-star rating, with numerous rave reviews praising its ability to make skin feel “soft and smooth.” One five-star review gushed, “This [serum] is simply amazing. It’s so light that it feels like nothing at all, but somehow, at the same time, it makes my skin feel so soft and hydrated. 10/10!”
The new Osea Hyaluronic Body Serum is an absolute must-have for my summer skincare routine. It should be a part of your routine, too! Don’t miss out; get yours here now.
