An undertone is the color beneath the surface of your skin, which never changes (even with a tan). There are three types of undertones:
Pink/Cool
I see red or pink undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin burns easily, but barely tans.
My skin looks better in silver jewelry than gold.
Neutral
I see both pink and yellow undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin sometimes burns and sometimes tans.
My skin looks good in both gold and silver jewelry.
Yellow/Warm
I see yellow or golden undertones around the perimeter of my face and neck.
My skin rarely burns, but tans easily.
My skin looks better in gold jewelry than silver.

Inspired by her grandmother’s lifelong love of the sea, Jenefer Palmer set out to share her passion through a plant-based skin care line infused with elements of the ocean. Distraught by the harmful chemicals she found in other products, Palmer resolved to craft her formulas with safer, nourishing ingredients.
While OSEA has now expanded into a world-renowned skin care line, their commitment has stayed the same—producing effective, wholesome products as pure as the ocean itself.

The Ocean Cleanser by OSEA is praised for its seaweed-infused formula that effectively removes impurities and excess oils. Customers appreciate its gentle exfoliation and pH-balanced composition, which leaves skin feeling clean, hydrated, and radiant. The cleanser's smooth, creamy texture and pleasant scent are also highlighted, though some users have noted issues with the pump and bottle size.

"I love using the OSEA Ocean Cleanser. It has a unique gel-cream texture that doesn't foam up aggressively but effectively washes away excess sebum and surface debris. The vegan lactic acid provides the gentlest daily exfoliation, leaving my complexion bright and completely free of congestion without causing redness. The frosted glass pump bottle feels incredibly luxurious, and the light, energetic citrus scent makes my morning routine feel like a spa visit!"
— Priyanka B. (5/5)
"i love how clean my face feels after using this, without feeling like it's been stripped of all oils. i have noticed that i sometimes need to do a second wash to get sunscreen off, but that might just be my sunscreen's problem. . ."
— Megan K. (5/5)
"This cleanser smells amazing and is the perfect light weight"
— Jessica M. (5/5)
"I use this product every other day or when my skin needs a little extra exfoliation. I have very sensitive skin, always red and dry. I love the gently exfoliation and the scent, my skin feels perfect when I use the ocean cleanser."
— VICTORIA G. (5/5)
"I have several other osea products that I love and have re-purchased so I was excited to try this cleanser. Unfortunately the smell is so bad and so strong that Ive barely used it in the several months that Ive had it, and when I do use it I hold my breath to avoid smelling it (which sounds dramatic—Im usually not particularly sensitive to fragrances but it really is that bad). Im not sure if I just got unlucky with a bad batch or something? For the cleansing aspect of it, it seems fine but overall I wouldnt recommend this one."

"Have been using this for close to 10 years, it is incredible!"
— LAUREN B. (5/5)
"Love this cleanser! I have incredibly sensitive skin that breaks out easily with new products. I have been using this consistently for over 6 months now and it truly is my favorite clean/non-tox cleanser. This is so gently it doesnt irritate my sensitive skin and leaves my face feeling fresh and clean after a day of makeup or a sweaty workout sesh. It does not leave my face feeling dry or stripped like some other cleansers Ive tried."
— Laura T. (5/5)
"It's a great gentle cleanser, doesn't make my skin dry (it's combo most of the year and dry in winter). The only thing is that I learned that it's not completly taking off make up, so for that I'm using a different cleanser. But on days when I don't wear make up or in the morning, this cleanser from Osea is pretty good."
