Spots, dark marks and scars are different. Knowing which one you want to care for can help you choose the right next step.
Do you still have active spots?
If new spots keep appearing, a pharmacist or GP can help you find suitable acne care. A cleansing bar washes away everyday dirt and excess oil, but it is not a replacement for acne treatment.
Is the spot gone but a flat dark mark remains?
A flat mark can stay after a spot or irritation has settled. If your goal is a more even-looking complexion, our Turmeric + Kojic Acid Sea Moss Soap is a cleansing option to explore. Kojic acid is used in brightening skincare, and our bar combines it with turmeric, liquorice root and sea moss.
Results from a rinse-off bar vary, and we cannot promise a timeline. Protecting exposed skin from the sun is also an important part of caring for dark marks. See the American Academy of Dermatology’s guide.
Has the texture of your skin changed?
A raised area or a dip in the skin is different from a flat dark mark. A soap is not proven to remove textured scars. If scars or persistent marks bother you, ask a healthcare professional about suitable options.
How do I use the Sea Essence bar?
Patch test first. Wet the bar, lather between your hands and massage gently over wet skin, avoiding your eyes. Follow the product directions: leave the lather on for two minutes, then rinse thoroughly. Apply moisturiser and broad-spectrum SPF afterwards. Stop if irritation occurs.
