Seaweed Facial Cleansers

Mermaid Scrubbers Act as a Natural Face Cleanser and Exfoliating Toner

— July 16, 2015 — Fashion
If you are looking for locally sourced skin care without any harmful ingredients, this natural face cleanser is a fun and whimsical option -- mostly because of its name. Available from Uncle Harry's, Mermaid Scrubbers are made from seaweed harvested from Mendocino County, California. The Gigartina Red Marine Algae acts as both a cleanser and a tonic that will clean and nourish your facial skin when it turns into a soothing gel rich in minerals. A pack of Mermaid Scrubbers comes with six pieces.

The unique and all-natural face cleanser consists of dried seaweed that, when wet, opens up to release the gel. The product also has exfoliating properties and can be used on any part of the body. They are also reusable.
Trend Themes
1. Natural Skin Care - There is an opportunity to disrupt traditional skin care brands with natural and locally sourced ingredients like seaweed.
2. Reusable Skin Care - Brands can create reusable skin care products like Mermaid Scrubbers for a more sustainable option in the beauty industry.
3. Multi-functional Beauty Products - There is an opportunity for beauty brands to create multi-functional products like Mermaid Scrubbers that act as both a cleanser and an exfoliator.
Industry Implications
1. Beauty and Personal Care - The beauty and personal care industry has an opportunity to incorporate more natural and reusable products into their offerings.
2. Sustainable Fashion and Beauty - Sustainable fashion and beauty are growing trends and incorporating products like Mermaid Scrubbers can appeal to environmentally conscious consumers.
3. Local Agriculture - Local agriculture can supply ingredients like seaweed for natural skin care products, creating a new market for farmers and promoting sustainable practices.
