Product
Oskaya’s Sea Moss Powder is a pure, potent source of plant-based minerals and nutrients to support your wellbeing.
Harvested from the pristine North Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Ireland, our wild Irish Sea Moss (Chondrus crispus) grows naturally among the rocks, absorbing the ocean’s trace minerals and vitamins. It’s then hand-harvested, sun-dried, and gently dehydrated at a low temperature to preserve its nutrient integrity – before being milled into a fine, versatile powder.
We like to call it nature’s multivitamin – a simple, nourishing way to support your body’s natural rhythm and inner vitality.

As with everything, moderation is key! Start with half a teaspoon a couple of times a week and see how your body feels. Every body is different and we all have unique nutritional needs. We always recommend consulting with a qualified healthcare professional to determine your unique nutritional needs.
Yes, Oskaya’s Sea Moss Powder is vegan, gluten-free, and naturally free from dairy, soy and nuts, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary preferences and needs. Since it’s harvested from the sea, this product may contain trace amounts of shellfish and isn’t recommend it for those with a shellfish allergy.
To maintain its freshness and potency, store Sea Moss Powder in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Make sure the container is tightly sealed after each use. Oskaya Sea Moss Powder arrives in a premium Miron glass jar, utilising advanced light-filtration technology. This innovative packaging blocks harmful visible and ultraviolet rays, while allowing beneficial violet, ultraviolet, and infrared light to pass through. This unique feature preserves the freshness, potency, and nutrient integrity of the Sea Moss Powder, ensuring you receive the maximum health benefits for longer.
While Sea Moss is rich in nutrients, it's important for pregnant or breastfeeding women to consult with a healthcare provider before incorporating it into their routine, as individual nutritional needs can vary. We recommend reviewing individual product information and consulting with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using any of Oskaya’s products.
Oskaya’s Sea Moss Powder is primarily intended for adults. We recommend consulting with a paediatrician before introducing Sea Moss Powder into your child’s diet to ensure it aligns with their individual health needs.
Sea Moss has a mild, "oceanic" aroma and flavour due to its natural absorption of minerals. While some may find its taste strong when used alone, it blends well in smoothies, soups, and recipes with citrus, making it nearly undetectable. Oskaya’s Sea Moss Powder is designed to integrate seamlessly into your diet.
The time it takes to notice benefits from Sea Moss can vary depending on your body’s needs and how consistently it is consumed. Some people may start to feel more energised or notice improvements in skin and digestion within a few weeks of regular use.
Sea Moss generally refers to specific types of red algae (AKA seaweed), primarily Chondrus crispus and sometimes Gracilaria. Irish Sea Moss, or Chondrus crispus, is a distinctive type of red seaweed and stands out for its rich mix of essential vitamins and minerals. It grows wildly on rocks in the cold, shallow waters of the North Atlantic, where it absorbs unique nutrients from both the rocks and the ocean. In contrast, the Gracilaria variety, is often grown in warmer waters, typically on ropes. This difference in growing conditions – rocky shores for Chondrus Crispus and rope farming for Gracilaria – leads to variations in texture, nutrient content and uses. Chondrus Crispus typically has a higher concentration of certain minerals, thanks to its rocky environment, but both types of seaweed offer valuable nutrients and have their own benefits depending on how they’re used.
Oskaya’s Sea Moss is sourced from the cool, luminous waters of the North Atlantic, where it grows wild and organically. The fronds are hand-harvested at the peak of their growth cycle to ensure optimal nutrient density. They are then dried at temperatures below 35 degrees to preserve their nutrient profile. The harvest areas undergo water quality testing, and the seaweed is collected using sustainable methods that encourage regeneration and support the surrounding ecosystem.
Both forms offer similar benefits, but the powder is more versatile for your daily wellness rituals and boasts a shelf life of over six months, all without the need for refrigeration. Sea moss gel has a short shelf life, only lasting up to three weeks in the refrigerator, and is often mixed with sweeteners and preservatives. In contrast, our Sea Moss Powder is 100% natural, with no fillers or preservatives. People with textural aversions may also find Sea Moss Powder mixed into their food preferable to the texture of gel.
Yes, Sea Moss can be used topically as a mineral-rich mask for both skin and hair. Irish Sea Moss (Chondrus Crispus) has been traditionally used in folk medicine to support skin health, and its soothing properties are believed to be beneficial for conditions like eczema and psoriasis. However, while anecdotal evidence supports these uses, more scientific research is needed to confirm its effectiveness for these specific skin conditions.

We do not offer this service currently, but we encourage you to follow your local community's rules on recycling glass. We have designed our packaging to be lovingly reused – simply remove the sticker labels and repurpose your miron jars. Miron glass is sustainable, recyclable, and can be repurposed.
Miron glass is highly regarded for preserving natural products. Its deep violet colour acts as a natural filter, blocking most light except for violet and UV wavelengths. This filtration prevents degradation, maintaining potency and freshness. It also allows beneficial UV-A and infrared light to penetrate, extending shelf life. Read our article on it here.
