A mixture of an aqueous solution, essential oils and mechanically extracted Phaeophyte kelp cytoplasm results in an emulsion with cosmetic and therapeutic properties. The preparation may be used on human and animal hair or skin. The moisturizing properties of the kelp cytoplasm provide the aqueous solution to the hair (keratin) which is absorbed, causing the hair to swell, and become heavier and more pliable. The natural oxidation agent preserves the mixture as well as providing a fresh oxygen in a spray when used. The alginate gels and oils in the emulsion coat the hair strands to reduce breakage and splitting and add weight to the strand. The preparation dries with gel capsules, which release moisture over time for a long-lasting effect. The preparation also contains, and may be supplemented with fuciodans, iodine, phlorotannins which reduce inflammation, prevent scaly skin, and act as an antibiotic, respectively, on dry chapped skin. The preparation seals off the cracks from the environment while trapping moisture pockets. This provides an environment conducive for healing.
