Raw Wildcrafed Sea Moss - St. Lucia - PURPLE 1 OZ

Raw aka dried sea moss is versatile and can be used to easily make sea moss gel at home, which in turn can be ingested or made into sea moss soap or face masks.

Raw sea moss can last for up to 2 years in cool and dry conditions, though its shelf life may reduce after the packet has been opened. If you make it into a gel, then remember to keep the gel refrigerated to prolong its use. The gel should last for 3 to 4 weeks.

2. Rehydrate by soaking

• Put the cleaned sea moss in a large bowl. Cover it with fresh, purified water, leaving extra room since it will expand significantly.
• If you're using citrus, add the lime or lemon juice to the soaking water.

• Let the sea moss soak for 12–24 hours.
• You will know the sea moss is ready when it is soft, translucent, and has expanded several times in size.

3. Blend into a gel

Drain the soaking water, and give the sea moss one last quick rinse.

Place the soaked sea moss into a high-speed blender.

Add just enough fresh spring or filtered water to cover the sea moss. The less water you use, the thicker the gel will be. Add your fruit and/or natural sweetener of choice (agave, maple syrup, dates).

Blend the mixture for 1 to 5 minutes, until it becomes completely smooth and creamy. Use a high-powered blender for the best results.
