Teami started as a detox tea company. Then someone in their product lab looked at Florida’s invasive sea greens and thought — *what if we just froze-dried the ocean into a face cream?* No synthetic preservatives. No lab-friend emulsifiers. Just algae, salt, and audacity.
The result smells exactly like low tide at 6 AM. In a good way.

**SECTION 2 — 🌊 What Even Is This?**
Power Greens Moisturizer ($44 for 1.7 oz). A gel-cream hybrid that claims to hydrate, calm, and deliver more antioxidants than your green juice ever did. I bought it because the ingredient list had zero things I couldn’t pronounce.
1. **No Water Base** — They use aloe juice + green tea instead. Water is boring.
2. **Cold-Processed** — Heat kills nutrients. This feels like science, not witchcraft.
3. **Shelf-Stable Without Garbage** — They figured out how to keep algae fresh without parabens. Witchcraft.

**SECTION 3 — 🔬 The Green Goo Breakdown**
Four ingredients doing all the work. No fillers. No fragrance to mask the seaweed breath.
– **Spirulina** — Pumped with B12. Makes your face look alive, not just hydrated.
– **Chlorella** — Repairs UV damage like a tiny green repair crew.
– **Sea Kelp** — Holds moisture without feeling greasy. Somehow.
– **Green Tea** — The original antioxidant. Caffeine here actually wakes up tired skin.

**SECTION 4 — 📖 First Touch, Real Talk**
It’s a pale green gel that feels cold and thin — almost watery. Absorbs in 12 seconds flat. My face stayed tacky for 3 minutes, then… nothing. No film. No shine. Just skin.
Week 2: I realized my T-zone wasn’t doing its 2 PM oil slick thing. The algae was literally teaching my face how to regulate itself. Weirdest flex.
💡 **One Thing** — Apply to damp skin. If you wait until your face is dry, it pills. Trust me.

**SECTION 5 — 💚 Verdict: Is It Real?**
My skin looks more even. Not brighter — that’s a different product. More *consistent*. Less red after workouts. The fine lines around my mouth didn’t disappear, but they stopped throwing a party every morning.
✅ **Buy if** — You live in humidity and hate heavy creams
⏭️ **Skip if** — You want a rich night cream or have very dry skin
💰 **Worth it?** — $44 is fair for no-synthetic tech. Not cheap, not robbery.

**SECTION 6 — 🏝️ Final Word**
A tea company made a better algae moisturizer than most skincare brands. That’s either brilliant or insulting. I think brilliant.
**7.8/10** — Weirdly effective, smell is an acquired taste
🛍️ **Where to Buy** — Teami website only. Buy the travel size first — the smell is polarizing.
