Reflection: Some facts about Sea Moss: Sea Moss is also known as :"Irish Moss" or "Carrageen". Sea Moss has a deep-rooted history in folklore, particularly in Celtic and Irish traditions. One of our favorite legends suggests that mermaids used Sea Moss as a beauty elixir to maintain their radiant skin and long, flowing hair. Some old stories claim that bathing in waters rich with sea moss could grant a person eternal youth and glowing skin. It may be legend but we secretly think it's true!
