Seatrace is a 100% natural, upcycled mineral-rich powder derived from seawater in the salt marshes of Giraud in Camargue. By retaining essential minerals, and removing excess sodium chloride, Seatrace enhances skin hydration, soothes irritation, and promotes the remineralization of both skin and hair.

Magnesium, a key component, promotes cellular regeneration and collagen synthesis while reducing skin redness. Sodium supports hydration and pH balance, while potassium aids in intercellular exchange. Calcium enhances skin firmness and elasticity, Zinc regulates sebum and prevents inflammation, and Copper improves skin elasticity and supports healthy ageing.

Thanks to its fine powder form, Seatrace is ideal for various cosmetic formulations, providing powerful benefits without compromising emulsion stability.

EFFICACY TESTS

CURL ENHANCING EFFECT

10 volunteers have tested a hair spray containing a 2% aqueous solution of Seatrace and an aqueous solution as placebo. Both products were labelled indistinctly as product A and product B. The volunteers were asked to test product A on one part of their hair and product B on the other, on two occasions: once on dry hair and once on wet hair. The volunteers answered a questionnaire with the following questions:

90% of the volunteers rated the Seatrace solution as more effective than the placebo on curl formation.

This study suggests that Seatrace, solubilised at 2%, can make hair waves, add volume and have a fixing effect.
