Planet Botanicals’ Maine Seaweed Beauty Skincare Collection is now available at all 49 Sea Bags retail locations throughout the United States.
Planet Botanicals, an all-natural skincare company, announces that its Maine Seaweed Beauty Skincare Collection is now available at all 49 Sea Bags retail locations throughout the United States.
Planet Botanicals uses sustainably harvested Maine seaweed as its primary ingredient in its fast-growing seaweed skincare collection.
“We are thrilled to extend our award-winning, premium Maine seaweed skincare products to Sea Bags’ customers,” remarked Michele Gilfoil, Founder and President of Planet Botanicals.
“This is especially gratifying as both Sea Bags and Planet Botanicals represent the deep connection to Maine’s seafaring traditions and Maine’s renowned reputation for quality products,” said Michele.
“Supporting local businesses is an on-going part of our core mission at Sea Bags,” added Tara Knupp, Vice President, Merchandising, Design & Product Development at Sea Bags.
“We are delighted to offer Planet Botanicals’ high-quality seaweed skincare products in our retail stores and provide our customers products that also represent the best of Maine’s nautical traditions,” she continued.
Planet Botanicals was recognised as one of the Top 10 Indie Beauty Skincare Brands when they introduced their Seaweed BeautyTM skincare collection at the Indie Beauty Expo in New York City.
The skincare products are artisan made in Westbrook, Maine with freshly harvested Maine seaweed combined with other high potency plant-based ingredients for 99.7% to 100% natural formulations.
“Seaweed is one of the best ingredients for the skin and is starting to be recognised for its remarkable benefits,” said Michele Gilfoil. Seaweed has powerful anti-aging, anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits and multiple vitamins and minerals that keep the skin healthy and looking its best.
Planet Botanicals uses a proprietary blend of five types of sustainably harvested Maine Seaweed to extract the maximum benefits from the seaweed.
“Maine has one of the best qualities of seaweed in the world, because of its pristine ocean waters,” said Michele. Planet Botanicals seaweed is harvested by hand in a sustainable way. Michele is a member of the Maine Seaweed Council whose mission is to protect the seaweed ecosystem through sustainable harvesting.
It all began when Michele could not find high-quality natural skincare products free from toxic chemicals and decided to make her own. On a trip to Africa, she discovered shea butter and decided to source fresh plant-based healthy ingredients for her products from growers around the world – from seaweed harvesters in Maine to African women’s shea butter cooperatives.
Planet Botanicals mission is to select the highest quality plant-based ingredients so that customers will benefit from healthy natural products packed with nutrients for their skin and feel good about using products based on sustainable sourcing that do no harm to the environment.
Growing up on coastal Maine, Michele discovered the numerous healthy bioactive nutrients in seaweed. She formulated the Seaweed Beauty Skincare Collection based on locally harvested Maine seaweed.
