Generations of Women Inspired by the Sea
Our family's connection to the sea began more than 100 years ago.
Inspired by our great-grandmother Elsa's belief in the healing power of the ocean, Jenefer spent a decade developing seaweed-powered formulas before founding OSEA in 1996. More than 30 years later, OSEA remains family-owned and led by mother and daughter, creating clean, clinically tested skincare inspired by the sea.
Welcome to our family.
