Opening a jar of Dulse & Rugosa skincare transports you to summer in Maine and makes the perfect gift for Mom.

Claire's personal favorite is our Sweet Island Face Oil.  

"I use it every night as my face cleanser.  What I love is how it's a mini facial and stress reliever.  It moisturizes my face while removing dirt and make up.  I don't get that dry, wrinkly feeling that many face cleanser leave.  It helps my older skin stay smooth and radiant."

Carly loves our Island Facial Scrub.  

"I still struggle with breakouts even though I haven't been a teenager for awhile.  I keep our Maine seaweed rich face scrub in the shower and use every other day.  It keeps my face calm and happy."

Rose loves the Calendula Night Creme.  

"This is a rich nourishing creme which keeps my face hydrated and moist."

Claire & Carly 

Early spring is so lovely in Maine.  At night you can hear the peepers.  During the day, long muddy walks with your favorite pooch.

Honestly, both our rescue dogs don't care for baths.  Tuffy, I can understand, she's not sure about water. But Saff?  That dog loves water.   She's famous for her "duck dive". That's when Saff sticks her entire head under the water.  Since Saff does the "duck dive" at the beach in sea water she should love our shampoo which is rich in Maine seaweed.  Our nourishing seaweed dog shampoo is great for itchy, irritated, dry patches.  

We designed our dog shampoo bar so that you can easily wash your dog with one hand and with just one bar!!!  Use the Dog Shampoo Bar just as you would a bar of soap.  Run the bar once down your dog's back and then rub.  Dulse & Rugosa’s Dog Shampoo Bar makes lots of moisturizing lather that is packed full of nourishing oils to leave your dog's fur feeling and looking great.  We have also incorporated Neem Oil into our bar for its amazing insect fighting properties which will leave your pooch looking and smelling great!

 Ingredients:  

Rose hip and Oarweed Tea, Saponified Oils of Coconut, Rosehip infused Olive, Calendula infused Sweet Almond, Rosehip infused Castor, Neem, and Rosehip Oil, Essential Oils of Cypress, Cedarwood, Citronella, Lemongrass, Lavender,and Tea Tree.

Whenever I feel stressed, tired or overwhelmed I like to give myself the treat of a deep detoxing exfoliation.  Besides getting rid of dead skin, feeling super clean and refreshed taking the time to exfoliate helps restore my balance.

I started using scrubs as a way to feel better after stressful events.  If I have a tough appointment or meeting I look forward to giving myself a gentle replenishing facial at the end of the day.  We originally designed our Island Face Scrub to help with breakouts.  But I discovered the gentle mix of Maine roses and seaweeds helps restore my balance. It might be because seaweeds contain trace minerals and vitamins that need to be replenished after a stressful event.  I think it also helps to take a few minutes devoted to myself.  We have a trial size Island Face Scrub for only $5.00 which used once a week will last for about a month- a little seaweed goes a long way!

Traveling is another great time to add scrubs into your routine.  There is so much going on when you travel especially by plane.  When I'm off my regular routine I struggle with staying balanced.  I find it's easy for me to get dehydrated especially as it is hard to travel with my favorite Lavender tea.  Healthy eating can also be tricky.  By the time I get to my destination I feel downright yucky and a full body scrub is just what I need.  Our blend of hand harvested Maine seaweeds and lovely flower petals leave me feeling happy.

Our scrubs are hand mixed with simple, effective ingredients.  Seaweed to help draw out toxins and keep your skin hydrated.  Salt or sugar to slough away dead skin and smooth rough patches and hand picked flower petals for beauty and scent.

If you haven't exfoliated in awhile, now is the time.  Celebrate the end of winter and the arrival of spring by detoxing and replenishing with one of our nourishing scrubs.

We have a $25.00 gift certificate for one lucky winner.  It's simple, leave a comment telling us what product you would love to win.  Contest ends on Monday March 28.

Can't wait to hear from you!
