The PEARL collagen collection works from the inside out, stimulating outer radiance and internal wellbeing. Our products contain only the highest grade wild-caught Norwegian marine collagen, sustainably sourced freshwater pearl powder and organic native Australian Kakadu plum to firm skin, thicken hair and strengthen nails. Our formula is Australias number 1 recommended Ingestible Beauty product, stocked nation-wide in leading Dermatology, skin and hair clinics. "PEARL was inspired by need. There wasn’t a product to my standard of purity or efficacy on the market, so I called in the professionals and made it myself. After more than two years of research with Australias leading Dermatologists and Dieticians, PEARL is finally here." - Olivia Boyd-Smith, Founder.
