  • Frankincense Resin

    Frankincense and its active compound, boswellic acid, are both renowned for their skin benefits. Boswellic acid has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, helping to reduce redness, irritation, and puffiness. It also supports collagen production, which can improve skin elasticity and reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Together, frankincense and boswellic acid promote healing, soothe acne or eczema, and improve skin tone, making the skin look more youthful and vibrant.

  • Liquorice

    Licorice root is known for its brightening and soothing effects on the skin. It contains glabridin, a compound that helps to reduce hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone by inhibiting melanin production. Additionally, licorice root has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, making it effective for calming irritated skin, reducing redness, and treating conditions like acne, eczema, and rosacea. It also helps to hydrate and protect the skin from environmental stressors.

  • Orange Peel

    Orange peel is rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, and natural acids, making it great for brightening the skin, improving texture, and promoting collagen production. It can help exfoliate dead skin cells, reduce dark spots, and improve skin tone. When used in skincare, orange peel also has antibacterial properties, which can help with acne and clogged pores.

Super effective skin healing and protection for the toughest working conditions.

I work in a dusty dirty construction yard and since using the illuminate tallow for several months now my skin has never looked better, in my life! The optimal ingredients and straight tallow (not whipped) mean it spreads easily but is also not too greasy. A superior product to competitors out there at similar price points. Happy return customer.

Delicious products

I have been using Iluminate balm as well as Gaia’s other skincare products for over two years and wouldn’t use anything else. I am in my sixties and live on a boat so my skin is exposed to the elements all the time. I have fair dry skin and prior to using iIlluminate had dry flakey patches on my face. Now I only have to use only a pea sized amount for my face and neck and I feel lovely, supple and moisturized.
The products are rich and creamy and smell delicious, good enough to eat!

Incredible !

I’ve been using Gaia Uncovered for over a year now. I’ll never use anything else on my skin again. From complexion to overall glow my skin has never looked so healthy

Are you serious!?

I’ve only been using this for a week and my skin already feels more plump, protected & is visibly brighter. I’m obsessed and can’t wait to see the progress after a month, 6 months, a year and more!
