Ingredients explained

Tremella Tremella

Tremella, known as the 'beauty mushroom', has been prized since ancient China for its youth-preserving properties. Our organic extract is rich in polysaccharides that support collagen production (1) and hold up to 500 times their weight in water - earning Tremella its title as nature’s hyaluronic acid (1). With antioxidant compounds that shield skin from everyday stressors (2) and help maintain a supple, radiant complexion (3), Tremella is your inner glow-giver, aligned with Sirona’s grace.

Chaga Chaga

Chaga, the 'protector' mushroom, grows on birch bark and brims with antioxidant compounds that help defend skin from oxidative stress - a key contributor to premature ageing (4). Rich in polyphenols, melanin, and skin-supportive nutrients like B vitamins and beta-glucans (5), it works to support collagen integrity (6) and promote a healthy, resilient complexion (7). With organic Chaga as your inner armour, skin is better equipped to face modern life’s daily aggressors.

Nettle Nettle

Nettle has long been cherished in herbal traditions as a deeply nourishing tonic for skin health. Rich in radiance-enhancing nutrients like Vitamin C, iron, and silica (8), it supports glow from the inside out. A natural antihistamine, it helps balance overactive immune responses (9), while its antioxidant and detoxifying compounds (10) work to clear internal stagnation that can dull the complexion. An earthy ally in your skin care ritual.

Bilberry Bilberry

Bilberry, a forest-born berry rich in anthocyanins, has long been prized for its skin-loving powers. These potent antioxidants support microcirculation, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients to the skin. By protecting against oxidative stress (11) and promoting a smoother, more radiant complexion(12), bilberry helps skin stay supple, bright, and resilient. With naturally occurring phytonutrients like quercetin and resveratrol, it supports skin vitality from the inside out (13).

Vitamin C Vitamin C

A powerhouse antioxidant celebrated for its crucial role in collagen production and skin vitality. Vitamin C helps protect skin cells from environmental stressors (14), supporting a radiant, resilient complexion. Clinical research shows diets rich in Vitamin C correlate with fewer wrinkles and less dryness (15), highlighting its nourishing role from within. Essential for daily renewal, Vitamin C is your skin’s steadfast guardian, helping maintain vibrant skin (16).

Sirona

Goddess of healing and celestial renewal, Sirona inspires this blend. Bathed in sunlight and wisdom, she reminds us that natural glow begins within - an awakening of timeless radiance and balance.

    The lineage of the wise woman

    For most of history, women were the keepers of plant medicine - healers, midwives, herbalists who passed down knowledge through hands-on practice, storytelling, and ritual. Brave Tinctures honour this forgotten lineage. Each blend is a quiet act of reclamation: of the feminine, of intuition, of slow healing, of rhythms. In a world that still moves too fast, this is a return to a wisdom that was never truly lost.

    Skincare from the within

    We’ve long been taught to tend to our skin from the outside - with serums, masks and creams layered on with care. But true radiance is an inside job. Your skin reflects the state of your inner world - from the nutrients you absorb to how your body responds to stress. Brave Glow is edible skincare: a daily act of nourishment that supports collagen, hydration and radiance from within. Because your outer glow, at its most powerful, begins below the surface.

    The Intelligence of Fungi

    From forest floor to apothecary, mushrooms carry a wisdom far beyond their form. Tremella, once valued by Chinese empresses for its youth-preserving beauty, and Chaga, long revered in Siberian traditions for its powerful inner fortitude, are more than ancient remedies - they’re nature’s quiet alchemists. Brimming with compounds that hydrate, protect and renew, these fungi remind us that true vitality begins in deep, unseen places — and that beauty often grows in the shadows.

    Biodynamic Farm

    Our herbs are grown on a certified organic and biodynamic farm where the land is treated as a living, interconnected system. Inspired by regenerative farming principles, this approach builds soil health, supports biodiversity, and works in sync with natural rhythms without the use of synthetic chemicals or pesticides.

    Rooted in intuition

    Herbs are nature’s intuitive gifts, offering powerful support when approached with understanding and care. Not every herb suits every person, as their benefits are deeply intertwined with individual needs and the natural rhythms of the body. Herbal wisdom invites us to listen closely to our bodies, observe how we respond, and trust in the ancient knowledge of plants. Need more guidance? We're here to help.

FAQs

Can I take Brave Glow if I am pregnant or breastfeeding?

While herbs and mushrooms can offer wonderful support, we do not recommend taking Brave Tinctures during pregnancy or breastfeeding. This is due to a lack of safety data on this specific blend during these life stages, as well as the presence of alcohol in the formulation. As always, we recommend speaking with your doctor or midwife before taking any supplements during pregnancy or while breastfeeding. Since they know your personal health history, they're best placed to guide you.

Can I take all 3 Brave Tinctures at once?

Yes, it is safe take all three Brave Tinctures in the same day. Each tincture has a recommended dose of 1.5ml per day, taken directly under the tongue or diluted in liquid. In times of heightened need, it’s safe to take up to three doses daily. For best results however, we recommend spacing them out - one tincture at a time, with 3-4 hours between each. This allows your body to absorb each formula more effectively and supports optimal bioavailability, as well as helping you to understand which formula is working for you.

Can I take Brave Glow if I am taking medication?

We’re unable to provide guidance on prescription medications or potential interactions. We always recommend discussing any supplements with your healthcare provider, as they can offer personalised advice based on your health history. While we can’t offer medical advice, we're here to support you with detailed product information and general nutrition questions.

What is the best time of day to take Brave Glow?

We would recommend our Brave Glow in the evening, or morning to give your body time to absorb the herbs from the tincture. For an added ritual, pair it with your skincare routine to enhance the benefits from the inside out.

How should I take Brave Glow for optimal benefits?

For fast absorption, we recommend taking Brave Glow directly under the tongue and waiting 1–2 minutes before drinking water. This allows the active compounds to absorb effectively. Prefer to mix it into a drink? That’s fine too - just avoid boiling water or very hot liquids, as heat-sensitive ingredients may degrade at high temperatures. Mildly warm or cold drinks are ideal.

Is it necessary to cycle use or take a break?

Taking occasional breaks from adaptogens and herbs can help maintain their effectiveness and support your body’s natural rhythm, including liver function. While long-term daily use of tinctures hasn’t been extensively studied, they are traditionally used in cycles or as needed - for example, during seasonal transitions, or times of increased skin-stressors. We recommend tuning in to your body's needs and using the tinctures mindfully.

Why are tinctures in liquid form with alcohol?

Alcohol is traditionally used in tinctures as an effective way to extract and preserve the beneficial compounds in herbs. It also allows the nutrients to remain in liquid form, which supports optimal absorption and efficient metabolism by the body. The alcohol content in our tinctures is very low. However, if you'd prefer to reduce it further, you can add your tincture to a warm drink—this may help some of the ethanol to evaporate before consumption.

When will I receive my Brave Glow order?

We aim to deliver UK orders within 3-5 working days. Once it has been dispatched, we’ll email you a tracking code so that you can track your ritual's journey from our door to yours. Deliveries outside the UK may vary. For Europe, please allow 3-7 days, and for the rest of the world, we’ll do our best to deliver your order within 7-14 days.

Reviews

Outer Glow begins with inner well being

"I bought this after reading another reviewer saying that their sleep had been positively improved after taking this. . . and I thought of course. . . your skin can't "glow" if you are not rested. And I agree my sleep has been ineffablely improved. . . I wake up having dreamt,feeling foggy like I have slept deeply and I haven't felt that since I don't know when. My skin is definitely looking happier. I am also taking the Wild Collagen which I had stopped unfortunately some time ago, so a wonderful combination Brave Glow, Collagen and sleep,small but wonderful things create big changes. ❤️"

— Elin H. (4/5)

Glowy skin

"I’m not sure how much I should be using as it doesn’t say exactly, I use 0. 5ml 3 times a day for a total of 1. 5ml but I’m unsure if I should use 1. 5ml 3 times a day instead. However I do feel as though my skin has looked glowier since using but I’m wary of using too much in one day/dose as it’s a herbal tincture so more detailed guidance would be appreciated thanks"
