Arame seaweed and seaweed absolute

We use arame seaweed in our Sea Vegetable soap for its unusual texture. It also softens the skin as you lather. Seaweed absolute comes from Fucus vesiculosus; it is a deep green or greenish brown liquid of intensely green, herbaceous and woody odour. It distinctly recalls the smell of seaweed drying on a salt-water beach after a heavy storm.


Classic seaweed soap.

A refreshing splash in the ocean. Sea Vegetable is made with seaweed, one of our favourite ingredients, with a crust of stimulating sea salt to give your body a good scrub down. It is considered a milestone in our soaps, as it was the first time we put seaweed and seaweed absolute in there. It's like standing on the coast and inhaling the fresh sea air. Our customers and product inventors adore this one for its uniqueness

Unique and a best-seller.

It smells of lime, lavender and seaweed, a bit like sitting at the beach next to someone applying suntan lotion. This is a great soap for sharing amongst the whole household. The scent is perfectly balanced for boys and girls everywhere.

Sea salt

Salt is stimulating, cleansing, antiseptic and astringent. It is softening for the skin and hydrates it. It is used to exfoliate in Sea Vegetable.

This was my first Lush purchase and I am so happy - lime and lavender are probably my two favorite scents, and I can smell them both in this. I would wear it as perfume, but then again I have odd taste in perfume. :) It cleans my skin without scrubbing and I never feel dry. I don't mind the hunks of seaweed. My only beef is that the scent doesn't linger, but that's not really Lush's fault - I just do not have porous skin. Nothing sticks to my skin or hair. Bummer! That won't stop me from trying, though.

I bought this soap for the benefits of the ingredients, the look, and the smell. I also wanted a long-lasting soap that would be good for a whole-body clean.

It has a great smell, lovely appearance, and because it's a harder soap, it lasts a long time (or rather, the soap layer lasts).

The down side of the long-lasting soap may be that it's really difficult to work up a lather or spread the soap around my body. I feel like I have to use the bar directly on my skin, but that's uncomfortable because of the coarse sea salt layer.

The salt layer is a great exfoliant on rough, thick skin, but it's a bit too irritating on sensitive skin. It also separates from the soap layers fairly easily.

Granted, if you don't want to find random bits of plant or mineral in your shower drain or bathtub, don't buy Lush products. They're stuffed with natural solid bits, and the buyer should expect some shedding.

I think I'll go back to Lush to buy a soap without an exfoliating layer that is a little bit softer. My showers will be faster by far.

    Comments about LUSH Sea Vegetable:

    I bought this soap when it was to raise money for sharks, but it seems to be the same thing as this one. The seaweed pieces fell out along with the white pieces (salt?). However, they didn't make to much of a mess and it smelt pretty good. Not sure if I would buy it again, but I liked it

        I have been trying to get rid of my moderate back-ne for months now. I have tried everything including normal acne products, other bath salts, special massage oils, diet, and everything. Nothing takes it away like Sea Vegetable. If I scrub my back with it daily, it keeps the pimples at bay. Thank you, LUSH!

        Conjure up every scent you can imagine from your most recent trip to the ocean and throw it in a cute bar of soap and voila, Sea Vegetable Soap! It smells great, looks beautiful, and is as relaxing as a massage appointment. However, it leaves my skin dry! For all these thoughts of cool blue ocean water I was really counting on feeling moisturized and silky smooth after using it.

          This caught my eye online and when I smelled it in the store I bought it at once. It smells great--citrus and a very subtle lavender. I like the color and the way it makes me smell (though it doesn't last long). I haven't had much use out of the seaweed or salt, though. Perhaps my chunk didn't have very much of it? Either way I'd buy it again.

          I bought a pretty good sized chunk of this soap, loving the fact that it had seaweed in it.
          But after using the soap, I wouldn't buy it again.
          Lasts too long, very dense. The seaweed and salt just stays the same size, so at the end I had a big chunk of seaweed and salt.

            This is awesome. I have used many different lotions and soaps to get rid of Keratosis Polaris (AKA chicken pimples - or red dots that cover the back of the arms and on legs) This is the only product that has succefully reduced and almost completely gotten rid of these red little bumps.

            Love this soap. I brought it on vacation with me this summer. It left my skin so moisturized that I didn't need any lotion. Has a wonderful scent. Very light and refreshing. I cut my bar into thirds to extend usage. This also allows me to swap it out with some of the other Lush soaps I love to use depending on my mood. :)

              I abolutely love this soap. The Seaweed gently exfoliates and the small is relaxing, yet it it perks you right up. It's so great after these long summer sweaty days. A good Beachy feeling. Would go great with a light summer novel and some summer love.... maybe some sangria too!

                My goodness. Well, I made my way to St. Louis Galleria LUSH, and by golly I went crazy. I hardly ever make it to an actual store, and I was so happy to finally smell Sea Vegetable in person. I picked up a sample, and it was the best move EVER.

                It transports me back to my summers in Santorini, Greece, and I feel like I'm back in my open tub looking out on the sea. This is staying in my shower for a long time to come.

                    I just wish the smell worked into the ocean theme. It has a light citrus/floral scent that doesn't say sea or seaweed to me at all. Ocean Salt smells like seaside to me. Besides that, it moisturizing and I like how the seaweed becomes soft and wiggly after being hydrated. I wouldn't mind using it again, but I really bought it for the summer/beach appeal and felt disappointed.

                    I thought that this would be good for antibacterial uses, considering the salt and seaweed properties. It smells great, but it takes too long to get rid of the seaweed and salt to get down to the soap. And all that seaweed is too gunky to get rid of. But the salt would make a great exfoliator.

                    I got this soap in the Green package at Delaware's location.
                    I used the soap 2 days in a row so far hoping that the perfume wouldn't cause allergy issues. So far so good. It does not dry out my sensitive skin, in fact, my skin feels so much softer than when I used other major brands.

                    The scent of the soap is so chill, perfect for summer. I really enjoyed using it both times. And it's kinda fun to say you smell like a sea vegetable. I'd definitely get this again.

                      This soap smells so amazing! You can really smell the citrusy-lime in it, but there is something else to it, which is probably the lavender, but you can't really pinpoint the lavender, so if you're buying it for just that scent, don't. It doesn't really smell like the ocean, but it smells AMAZING! It doesn't lather a lot, but it doesn't latter a little, it's a nice in0between, maybe more on the less-lathering side (Which is good, because the agent that makes the lather is supposed to dry out skin) This soap doesn't dry out my skin, but it doesn't add moisture either. And the soap is so adorable, too! The blue-green color of the soap looks like a tropical ocean, and the scrubbing seaweed and salt really add to it. Unfortunately when I unwrapped it, the salt broke off of the top and crumbled, but mine had a pretty thick salt layer compared to most, so that's probably why. I'm going to use the salt as a separate scrub, though. =] The seaweed is still in the soap though, and it gives a really nice exfoliation; not too harsh but not too soft. Definitely wouldn't use it on the face, though. It would be way too harsh for that. But this is my favorite soap ever!!!

                          This was my first LUSH soap, and I really would have given it a higher rating if it weren't for the fact that it left my skin rather dry. I love the smell of limes, which was the main selling point of this product for me. However, it doesn't lather as well as some of the other LUSH soaps I have used, and I'm not sure I would recommend it to anyone who has sensitive skin like myself. Otherwise, it's a good product.

                            My husband bought me this and it was my first LUSH product. Love at first use. I would recommend this to everyone of my friends. Not only is it a great product, but you actually feel clean and refreshed after using it. A definite must for your bath ritual.

                              As a shower soap, it is excellent. I love the smell. It is so summer and light; Truly a a great way to start the morning.

                              It doesn't really lather, but that wasn't too much of a draw back for me.

                                Okay I only got the sample bar of this buuut...
                                The smell is definitely there. It doesn't lather well but it's alright I guess. The smell sticks for a while, it began to wear off about five hours later. But the smell is -really- strong. And it really reminds me of men's soap. So if you're a guy. This is great soap. But if your a lady and your like feminine smells, this isn't a great choice.
