Voices From Our Early Access Community

Fika, Pigmentation Targeting Serum

The results were so quick! ~ Amy

Fika - Pigmentation targeting Serum

I just needed to tell you that the serum that you have created is a magic potion. I cant imagine not having it in my stash. My skin feels fab. I had a minor rash on my face and the serum sorted it out literally overnight. Texture gone, redness gone. It is by far the most impressive product for my skin that I have used in recent years

Terra - Barrier support serum

As someone who applies moisturiser 3 times a day, I didn’t feel any need to do this when I was using Terra. I was using laneige Cica mask at night and this has comfortably and completely replaced the use of that mask for me, that mask now feels heavier to me

Cedar of the forest - Emulsifying cleansing balm

The texture is so soft, washed off and wiped off everything. The smell of the balm is so therapeutic, I felt like I was taking a walk in the forest.

Terra - Barrier support serum

As someone with dry skin, I had to apply a moisturiser and then Vaseline on top to make sure my skin doesn’t feel dry through the day. With terra I just needed one application and the hydration lasted the whole day!

Fika - Pigmentation targeting Serum

I notice overall evenness and glow to the skin. I appreciate both the serums, as they have a hydrating base and eliminates the need for a separate hydrating layer. As a person who likes to layer less and keep skincare streamlined, it works very well for me”.-

Cedar of the forest - Emulsifying cleansing balm

The texture is just so right. It melts like no other cleansing balm that I have tried so far and leaves my skin supple. I like that it doesn’t make my skin squeaky clean and that is a big plus for me
