Mother's Day Gifts - Now Live!
Before I developed Bescher, I struggled constantly with highly sensitive, reactive, and blemish-prone skin. I masked my uneven tone with foundation, as I had never found a skincare product that truly supported my skin barrier.
In my mid-20s, I found myself living on a remote island in the Pacific, where I spent six years learning to adapt to a harsh and unpredictable climate. During the last couple of years, I lived without power or running water. My skincare routine consisted of sponge-bathing with one bottle of water and saving another just to stay hydrated. With no access to modern-day conveniences, my skin was at its most vulnerable. It became highly sensitized, visibly red, and stressed from constant sun exposure and the harsh environment. Determined to find a solution, I set out to discover new ways to protect and soothe my skin.
I spent many days and nights with the island chief and locals who practice alternative skin-soothing methods based on centuries of wisdom passed down from their ancestors. I discovered that the villagers applied sea cucumber collagen topically to calm stressed skin and support its natural barrier. The villagers were inherently aware that the sea cucumber collagen provided incredible renewing properties. I was incredibly intrigued and excited about what I witnessed and heard from the elders, so I began to extensively research so I could understand what was going on here! I soon discovered that the sea cucumber is a marine invertebrate that possesses extraordinary renewing and restorative properties. Sea Cucumbers are rich in bio-active compounds that not only allow them to survive but also thrive and renew themselves in the harshest environments on the planet.
The sea cucumber contains a wide range of bio-active compounds such as collagen, antioxidants, and a rare peptide that can rapidly support collagen production, resulting in a boost in visible skin vitality! I eagerly sourced some raw sea cucumber collagen from the villagers and applied it to an area of highly stressed skin on my hand. The next day it was evident that the skin looked significantly calmer. I couldn’t believe it! I couldn’t help myself, so I decided to try the extract on my face. After a week of application, I literally felt like my skin was reborn, with clear evidence that my skin tone and complexion were looking more healthy and a lot brighter. This was the epiphany moment. I realised healthy glowing skin was possible for me!
Returning to my hometown in Australia, I embarked on my mission. I chose to work with a leading compounding laboratory to formulate my skincare line. The Sea Cucumber Collagen Regeneration Serum revived the healthy complexion that I always desired. It took 2 months of nightly use for me to feel confident in my skin, which made me feel empowered! I had such an incredible skin transformation that I decided to take my “mask” off and drop using foundation altogether. My mission is to help you achieve maximum results and I hope you love the products as much as I do.
