A healthy ocean is at the heart of what Seasick stands for. The majority of sunscreens on the market are filled with nasty chemicals that harm our sea life. These sunscreens are so harmful in fact, that they are increasingly being banned by reef-rich dive destinations such as Hawaii, Palau and the Great Barrier Reef. Seasick contains only four ingredients, all of which are natural and none of which harm our ocean. Our packaging is plastic free and recyclable (or we can refill your empty pots). At Seasick we care about battling climate change, and our product does too.

Octacle was born from the need to find natural and eco conscious alternatives in the diving industry. Starting off with developing a wetsuit lubricant for open cell wetsuits.
I bought an open cell wetsuit for diving and discovered there weren't any realistic natural options for getting it on, other than soaps, detergents and synthetic glycols! Whaaat!!??
People are foaming up, breaking out in spots, rashes, boils, and messing with their personal biome, and the ocean's too!
So I decided to make a totally natural, seaweed based solution to the problem. That's pretty slimy stuff!
I offer a way to get in and out of your wetsuit safely and smoothly and feel comfortable whilst actually diving! In fact it actually nourishes the skin.
PLUS- No more adding chemicals, detergents, surfactants to our already struggling aquatic ecosystem. No petrochemical biproducts, No plastic packaging...
Detergents contain surfactants among other harmful chemicals, which are proven through extensive scientific research, to be harmful to our aquatic ecosystems, and the organisms within it.

Seaglass Pacifica is based in Aotearoa, New Zealand. Being a keen sailor/explorer, a desire was birthed from travelling overseas, to create a bag that supports adventurers, who love to discover new places, people and more about themselves.
Made from upcycled sails and materials, each bag has been on a journey.
Seaglass name came about as a reflection of a personal journey: the idea of a vessel being broken, rolled and smashed about by the waves, the edges being ground down and smoothed over sand, rocks and time. To become something new and beautiful, a taonga, treasure to behold.
Likewise, the sails and materials had an original purpose, got worn, broken, discarded, forgotten. I love to recreate and bring out new value and purpose within them.
