Natural beauty brand ishga has launched a new marine cream to celebrate 10 years of expertise in seaweed, science and skincare

Are you looking for a nourishing cream that will help rejuvenate tired-looking skin? Well, search no further, as ishga has introduced the latest addition to its award-winning skincare collection.

Developed from 10 years of expertise in seaweed, science and skincare, Hydra+ Marine Cream is an advanced formula which features multiple molecular weights of hyaluronic acid to hydrate and nourish different skin layers.

The results-driven formula includes ishga’s unique Hebridean seaweed extract, rich in antioxidants and sourced from the purest Scottish waters, to visibly rejuvenate skin.

Prickly pear oil stimulates collagen, brightens, and provides an added boost of hydration while Lus Nan Laogh, an ancient Hebridean healing remedy, has been included for its anti-inflammatory and protective properties. And, nourishing shea butter, argan oil, rose geranium and frankincense oils deliver essential vitamins and minerals to replenish every skin type.

Created with sustainability in mind, ishga’s Hydra+ Marine Cream is presented in luxurious packaging that nods to the 10-year anniversary of ishga, featuring the Pantone Colour of the Year 2023, ‘Viva Magenta’. This shade from the red family is rooted in nature and expressive of a new signal of strength.

Key active ingredients

The Hydra+ Marine Cream has lots of key active ingredients in its formula which boast a whole raft of benefits.

Hyaluronic acid, for example, can bind up to 1000x times its own weight in water which boosts and maintains skin hydration levels, accelerates tissue repair and cell regeneration.

Fucus Serratus Seaweed extract boosts hydration, and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties while Hebridean spring water, which is locally sourced from a natural healing well, is rich in mineral content.

Lus Nan Laogh has anti-inflammatory, anti-microbial and antioxidant effects to improve the condition of the skin.

Shea butter, which is non-comedogenic, is rich in vitamins A, E and F, and fatty acids, and repairs skin. Prickly pear oil is hydrating, antibacterial and antioxidant. It contains vitamin K and can brighten skin whilst also reducing inflammation.

Rose geranium essential oil balances skin’s natural oil production and is anti-bacterial, healing and brightening for the skin.

Frankincense essential oil can reduce skin redness and skin sensitivity, and argan oil is nourishing, moisturising and can reduce excess sebum.

Almond oil offers a high phenol content and firms, brightens and reduces fine lines. Safflower oil and thistle oil have a high phenol content and work to prevent moisture loss. Jojoba oil has a high phenol content too, and offers anti-bacterial and antioxidant protection to the skin, while glycerin helps with moisture retention and is healing and protecting.
