Skin Education

You’ve probably heard a lot about SPF, broad-spectrum protection, and UVA/UVB filters. But here’s a new skincare hero quietly making waves in the beauty industry — SeaBoost™. It’s not just another hydrating agent. It’s a marine-powered, skin-loving ingredient that brings deep hydration, mineral nourishment, and long-lasting softness — even in the harshest sunlight.  And yes, we’ve made it a star ingredient in our Clay of Heaven Daily Advance SPF 50 Sunscreen.  Because we believe sun protection should do more than just block UV rays  it should nourish, hydrate, and heal your skin too. What Is SeaBoost™?  SeaBoost™ is a bioactive marine complex derived from nutrient-rich sea plants, minerals, and marine extracts. Think of it as ocean therapy for your skin bottled.  It’s packed with:  ● Marine polysaccharides (natural water-binding agents)  ● Essential minerals like magnesium, calcium, and potassium  ● Amino acids and marine antioxidants  Together, they mimic the ocean’s ability to retain moisture, restore balance, and soothe environmental damage. Why Your Skin Needs Hydration Even in a Sunscreen Most sunscreens focus purely on protection. But in doing so, many leave your skin:  ❌Dry and chalky ❌Sticky or heavy ❌Tight and uncomfortable ❌More prone to post-sun irritation  Here’s the truth:  UV exposure doesn’t just burn your skin  it dehydrates it deeply. That’s why we chose to include SeaBoost™ in our sunscreen: to defend and deeply hydrate at the same time.  The Skin Benefits of SeaBoost™ 1. Intensive Hydration SeaBoost works like a magnet drawing moisture into the skin and locking it in for hours. Your skin feels soft, plump, and bouncy even after long sun exposure.  2. Soothes & Calms It helps reduce redness, irritation, and that uncomfortable tight feeling after being out in the sun making your sunscreen feel more like skincare.  3. Nutrient-Rich Barrier Support The marine minerals in SeaBoost reinforce your skin’s barrier, helping it stay stronger and more resilient under UV and pollution stress.  4. Fights Free Radicals SeaBoost contains marine antioxidants that protect skin from oxidative damage caused by sun, heat, and environmental toxins.   How We Use SeaBoost™ in Our Daily Advance SPF 50 Sunscreen  At Clay of Heaven, we believe your sunscreen should be your first skincare step, not just a protection layer. That’s why our SPF 50 formula includes SeaBoost™, blended with other powerful ingredients like:  ● Bakuchiol – A natural retinol alternative  ● Rice Water – For brightening & hydration  ● Uvinul® A Plus + Avobenzone – For strong UVA/UVB defense  ● Octyl Salicylate + Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate – Lightweight, broad-spectrum protection  Together, these ingredients create a multitasking sunscreen that:  ✅Protects ✅Hydrates ✅Calms ✅Brightens ✅And feels AMAZING on your skin Who Is This Sunscreen For? If you have:  ● Dry or dehydrated skin  ● Sensitive skin that reacts to harsh sunscreens  ● A need for high sun protection without the white cast  ● Skin that feels tight or dull post sun exposure  you’ll love the lightweight, hydrating touch of SeaBoost in every drop of our sunscreen. Perfect for daily wear under makeup or on bare skin.    Final Thought: Your Skin Needs Protection and Hydration, Why Not Both?  Your sunscreen should be more than just a shield. With SeaBoost™, we’ve turned it into a nourishing skin ritual.  So every morning when you apply your Clay of Heaven Daily Advance SPF 50 Sunscreen,  you’re not just guarding your skin you’re feeding it with marine moisture, calming nutrients, and long-lasting softness.  Your skin deserves this upgrade. ✨Dive into hydration. Glide into glow.

When you think of skincare hydration, there’s one name that rises above the rest Hyaluronic Acid.  But don’t let the word “acid” scare you , this isn’t something harsh or exfoliating. In fact, it’s quite the opposite. Hyaluronic Acid is like a tall glass of water for your skin. No matter your skin type  oily, dry, combination, or acne-prone  this miracle molecule plumps, hydrates, and smoothes your skin from within.  And yes, we’ve infused it into both our Glow Up Serum and Resurface Serum for a very specific reason: To make hydration a non-negotiable part of your daily glow.    What is Hyaluronic Acid (and Why Is It So Hyped?)  Hyaluronic Acid (HA) is a naturally occurring molecule found in your skin, eyes, and connective tissues. Its superpower? It can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water.  That means just one gram of HA can bind 6 liters of water, delivering hydration deep into your skin layers. As we age or face daily stress (hello, sun exposure, pollution, and lack of sleep), our natural HA levels drop leading to: ● Dullness ● Fine lines ● Dry patches ● Loss of bounce and firmness That’s where topical HA steps in  like your skin’s personal hydration hero. Why Your Skin Needs Hyaluronic Acid Every Single Day. ✅Deep & Lasting Hydration HA works on both the surface and deeper layers of your skin, attracting moisture and locking it in leaving your skin supple, soft, and dewy.  ✅Plumps Fine Lines Dehydration often shows up as premature fine lines. HA plumps up those areas, making skin look smoother and more youthful  instantly.  ✅ Improves Skin Barrier With proper hydration, your skin’s protective barrier strengthens, reducing sensitivity, redness, and inflammation.  ✅Perfect for ALL Skin Types Whether you’re dry, oily, or breakout-prone, HA delivers hydration without clogging pores or feeling greasy.  ✅Enhances Other Actives Hydrated skin absorbs other ingredients better  so your Vitamin C, Salicylic Acid, and Niacinamide work more effectively.  How We Use Hyaluronic Acid in Our Clay of Heaven Formulas  We don’t use just any hyaluronic acid  we use cosmetic-grade HA, carefully layered into two of our best-selling serums: Glow Up Serum (With 10% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid) In this formula, HA plays the role of balancer. While Vitamin C and Alpha Arbutin work to brighten and even out your skin tone, HA ensures your skin remains plump, hydrated, and irritation-free.  Perfect for morning use Combats dullness, dryness, and fatigue Delivers a lit-from-within glow Resurface Serum (With SalSphere® Salicylic Acid + Tea Tree)  This one’s made for acne-prone skin, which often ends up dehydrated due to harsh treatments. HA in this serum prevents the “drying effect” of exfoliants, restoring your moisture levels without causing oiliness.  Keeps skin calm and soft Prevents sensitivity or flakiness from actives Ideal for AM use to start your day refreshed  How to Use Hyaluronic Acid the Right Way Pro tip: HA works best when applied on damp skin followed by a moisturizer or sunscreen to lock in hydration.  Steps: 1. Cleanse your face 2. While skin is still damp, apply serum with Hyaluronic Acid 3. Follow with sunscreen   Final Thought: Hydration is Not a Luxury, It’s a Necessity. Dry, flaky skin? Oily, yet dehydrated skin? Fine lines? Makeup not sitting right? It all goes back to one thing hydration. With Hyaluronic Acid in your daily routine, you're not just moisturizing You’re deeply nourishing, strengthening your barrier, and helping your skin thrive. That’s why Clay of Heaven’s serums don’t just treat they heal, hydrate, and protect.  Add HA to your routine and experience what truly hydrated skin feels like.

Let’s talk about Vitamin C  the holy grail of bright, glowing, youthful skin. But here’s the catch: not all Vitamin C is created equal. Some oxidize too quickly, some irritate sensitive skin, and some just sit pretty in the bottle doing nothing.  That’s why skincare scientists and dermatologists are raving about a next-gen derivative Ethyl Ascorbic Acid. It’s stable, potent, fast-absorbing, and delivers visible results without the usual Vitamin C drama. And yes  we’ve packed a 10% concentration of it in our best-selling Glow Up Serum at Clay of Heaven.  What is Ethyl Ascorbic Acid? Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a stable, water-soluble derivative of pure Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid).  In simple terms: it gives you all the powerful benefits of Vitamin C without the irritation, stinging, or instability.  It contains 86.3% of active Vitamin C content, which means it converts quickly once it penetrates the skin, delivering a real glow-up from within.   Why Ethyl Ascorbic Acid is a Game Changer in Skincare Here’s what makes it so popular (and why your skin will love it):  ✅ Highly Stable Unlike pure Vitamin C, which oxidizes in light or air, Ethyl Ascorbic Acid stays fresh and active longer, ensuring every drop of your serum works hard till the last pump. ✅ Gentle on Skin No burning. No redness. No tingling. Even sensitive or acne-prone skin can use it daily without worrying about irritation.  ✅ Fast-Absorbing & Deep-Penetrating It absorbs quickly into the skin and starts working faster  brightening dullness, reducing pigmentation, and stimulating collagen. ✅ Doesn’t Interfere with Other Actives  It plays well with ingredients like niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, and sunscreen. Perfect for layering in your morning routine.  Key Benefits of Ethyl Ascorbic Acid for Your Skin  1. Brightens and Evens Out Skin Tone Struggling with dull skin or uneven patches? Ethyl Ascorbic Acid breaks down melanin clusters and gives your face a lit-from-within glow. 2. Reduces Hyperpigmentation & Dark Spots It inhibits tyrosinase (the enzyme responsible for melanin production), helping fade acne marks, sun spots, and discoloration. 3. Boosts Collagen Production Vitamin C stimulates fibroblasts to produce more collagen  which means firmer, plumper, youthful-looking skin over time. 4. Protects Against Sun Damage & Pollution Its antioxidant properties protect the skin from free radicals, UV rays, and pollution reducing long-term damage. 5. Supports Skin Healing It calms inflammation, supports tissue repair, and promotes overall skin health Why We Chose 10% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid in Our Glow Up Serum  At Clay of Heaven, we believe in science-backed skincare not empty promises. That’s why our Glow Up Serum includes 10% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid the ideal effective yet safe concentration for daily use.  Here’s what that means for you: ✨ Visible brightness within 10–14 days ✨ Gradual fading of pigmentation over 3–4 weeks ✨ No sensitivity or dryness ✨ Healthy, radiant skin  every single day  Combined with Kakadu Plum, Alpha Arbutin, Licorice Extract, and Ferulic Acid, our formula works synergistically to treat dullness, discoloration, and early signs of aging.  It’s your all-in-one glow solution and it's 100% vegan, cruelty-free, and dermatologically tested.   When & How to Use It  Our Glow Up Serum is made for morning use, right after cleansing.  Step-by-step:  1. Cleanse your face with a gentle face wash 2. Pat dry (leave skin slightly damp) 3. Apply 3–4 drops of the Glow Up Serum evenly 4. Let it absorb 5. Follow with a moisturizer + sunscreen (SPF 50 recommended) Pro Tip: If you're just starting with Vitamin C, use it every other day and build up to daily use.   Ethyl Ascorbic Acid vs. Traditional Vitamin C (L-Ascorbic Acid)  Final Thoughts: Gentle. Potent. Glow-Inducing.  Your skin doesn’t need just any Vitamin C, it needs one that actually works without harming your skin barrier.  With 10% Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, our Glow Up Serum is the sweet spot between results and comfort.  It’s time to say goodbye to dullness, dark spots, and uneven skin — and say hello to daily glow, hydration, and confidence.
