Discover the power of plant-based omegas with our advanced omega 3 and omega 7 formula.
Skin is not static. It is active, responsive, and constantly adapting - your first line of defence between you and the outside world.
Every day, it works to hold onto moisture, stay strong and protect against daily stressors. But modern life can place this barrier under pressure.
Hydration is not just about water - it is about how the skin holds onto it. Inside the skin, a natural network helps to draw in and maintain moisture, keeping it soft and supple. When this balance is disrupted, skin can feel dry.
True Skin Alchemy supports this process for lasting hydration and glow.
High in the rainforests of Central and South America grows a resilient fern, exposed to intense sunlight. Over time it developed natural protective compounds to survive this environment.
Polypodium leucotomos carries this ancient intelligence into a daily ritual, helping the skin respond to environmental stress from within.
Skin is the body's largest organ, made up of three interconnect layers working as one system. When in balance, skin stays hydrated, protects itself, repairs efficiently and adapts as life changes.
At Ancient + Brave, we believe skin is best supported as a whole, beyond surface-level care.
Skin is constantly renewing, responding to how we live, rest and nourish ourselves.True Skin Alchemy becomes part of that rhythm - a daily ritual that works with the body over time. Not a surface-level solution, but a deeper, consistent layer of support that builds gradually across hydration, protection and defence.For skin that feels ready for anything.
With consistent daily use, the skin may become better supported in retaining moisture, which can contribute to improved hydration and a more supple appearance. By supporting the skin’s lipid barrier, it may feel more resilient and less prone to dryness and environmental stress. By supporting collagen formation and organisation, it helps maintain skin firmness and elasticity. Antioxidant and photoprotective nutrients help the skin better manage the cumulative impact of modern life.The result is skin that feels more stable and supported. More hydrated, more resilient, and more luminous in its natural functioning.Please note that everyone’s skin is unique, and responses can vary depending on individual factors such as lifestyle, environment, diet and overall health.
Yes, True Skin Alchemy is designed to work alongside your collagen ritual. The skin is made up of multiple layers, working together as a living structure. The outer layer is our protective barrier. the middle layer is where collagen, elastin and connective tissue support structure and elasticity and the deeper layer provides cushioning. Over time, with modern life factors such as UV exposure, pollution, screens, stress and also the natural ageing process, these systems can become less efficient. Hydration is harder to maintain, the barrier becomes more vulnerable and collagen structure becomes less supported. So - a daily collagen ritual is still foundational for skin. It is a key structural protein that forms the framework of the skin, helping maintain firmness and elasticity. True Skin Alchemy then supports the wider skin ecosystem - formulated to hydrate, protect and defend. Together, True Skin Alchemy and True or Wild collagen offer a complete approach to skin health from within.
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring compound found in the body, known for its role in supporting hydration and tissue elasticity.Topical hyaluronic acid is designed to sit on the skin’s surface, where it helps draw in and retain moisture in the outer layers. These formulations often use higher molecular weights to create a surface-level hydrating effect.Ingestible hyaluronic acid is typically used in lower molecular weights, allowing it to be absorbed through digestion and support hydration from within the body’s own systems, including the skin.
Skin conditions can be influenced by a range of factors, including hormones, gut health, stress and inflammation. While True Skin Alchemy is not designed to treat or manage specific skin conditions, it can support overall skin health by helping the skin respond to everyday stressors such as oxidative stress and environmental exposure. A holistic approach to skin health is important - supporting areas such as nutrition, gut health and stress balance, alongside a wider skincare and supplement routine. If you have a diagnosed skin condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or are under medical supervision, we recommend speaking with your GP or healthcare practitioner before use.
While the ingredients in True Skin Alchemy are generally well tolerated, they haven’t been specifically studied for use during pregnancy or breastfeeding. As a precaution, we recommend speaking with your healthcare professional before introducing any new supplements during this time.
Skin concerns such as acne are complex and can be influenced by a range of factors, including hormones, gut health, stress and inflammation.While True Skin Alchemy has not been designed to treat or prevent acne, it can support overall skin health as part of a broader, holistic approach.The formula includes nutrients that help support skin function and resilience, but supporting skin health from the inside out also means considering wider systems in the body. A balanced gut environment and healthy inflammatory response are closely linked to skin health, which is why True Biome and True Omegas+ can be helpful additions within a wider routine.Alongside this, nutrition, stress management and sleep all play an important role. If acne is persistent or severe, we recommend speaking with a GP or dermatologist for personalised support.
You can take True Skin Alchemy at any time of day, with or without food, depending on what suits your routine.Many people prefer taking it in the evening as part of their night-time ritual, aligning with the skin’s natural overnight renewal processes. However, morning or split dosing is also suitable.Consistency is the most important factor in supporting longer-term skin outcomes.
True Skin Alchemy is designed to support skin health over time, with ingredients that work at different stages within the body. Some nutrients are absorbed quickly, while others support longer-term skin function. Based on available research, many people may begin to notice changes in skin hydration, radiance and overall condition within around 2–12 weeks of consistent daily use. Supporting your skin is a cumulative process, so consistency is key. Benefits are best seen as part of a wider approach that includes nutrition, sleep and stress balance. And as with all skincare and supplements, results can vary from person to person depending on individual factors.
We take a holistic view of skin health. The skin does not work in isolation, it reflects internal balance across multiple systems. The perfect skin-loving ritual would be: True or Wild Collagen: Provides hydrolysed Type I collagen peptides, supporting skin structure, elasticity and hydration from within.True Omegas+: Delivers plant-based omega-3 fatty acids (DHA + EPA) and omega-7 help support the skin’s lipid barrier, which is essential for moisture retention and suppleness.Brave Glow: A blend of mushrooms, herbs and Vitamin C designed to support antioxidant protection and skin radiance. True Biome: A triple-action gut support formula that feeds and helps maintain a balanced gut environment, supporting the gut-skin connection.

"It seems just when you truly love a brand they surpass your expectations. As an experienced industry expert I found the brand a while ago and having tried several of the collagens my landed choice is the vegan Radiant Collagyn - not that I am vegan but for the great taste. The new gifted case for my added True Skin Alchemy just makes it so practical. Thank you for a great brand and a great sense of customer appreciation."
"I have been using the skin alchemy supplements for a month now and have already noticed how clearer and more supple my skin is. My menopausal skin was looking dull and dry for a long time now so I’ve been taking these supplements for a month now and the difference is amazing… my skin is soft, hydrated and has a glow now. . I have subscribed to monthly supplies of these and will always use them."
"True Skin Alchemy is so super easy to take no taste…. no smell …. which is really important to me otherwise. . however good it could be I can’t take and will sit in my cupboard…. I have only taken this a short time but my skin feels softer with a glow …"
"I’ve been really enjoying True Skin Alchemy. It seems to be incredibly hydrating and my face is looking and feeling much more plump and refreshed. I’ve noticed that my fine lines appear softer, and my skin has a smoother, healthier-looking glow. As it’s a total body thing, drier areas on my legs seem to have vanished also. I’m very impressed and will be ordering a second batch."
"I have just started my second jar I’ve not seen any changes yet, but I’m really looking for to start my skin looking more radiant. Very easy on the stomach which I really appreciate"
"A few years ago my skin barrier was severely compromised by taking an antibiotic I was prescribed for a bout of flu as a result my skin suffered a extremely bad reaction and ever since has never been quite the same. This really affected my confidence so much I even ended up consulting a top dermatologist but sadly to no avail. I already take your true collagen powder and can really see the results so I thought I’ll give this a go as what have I to lose? Well just a couple of weeks in and I’m absolutely blown away 😲 my skin has never looked or felt better! Finally at long last my skin is returning to how it used to be! If you suffer with any skin issues or just want to improve how it looks and feels do give this supplement a try I honestly think you won’t regret it."
"I was unsure what this would do for me but within two weeks I had noticed significant changes to my skin not just on my face but my body too. It seemed to have more of a bounce back, feeling hydrated and definitely softer to the touch. At the same time my barrier seemed to have a new strength to it and my rosacea had calmed too. I felt relatively happy with my skin before taking it as my skincare routine was so good but this was obviously something working from the inside. I really had no idea how much I needed this product until I actually began taking it. No going back for me now."
"I have been taking these for just under a month and I honestly believe my skin has never looked better! I’m 57 and my lines are lessening and my legs also feel really smooth. Love it!"
"Only been using these for about four weeks but would say they are making a difference. Skin definitely feels softer and more hydrated. Will continue taking them in the hopes that they continue to help my 70 year old skin!"
"Definitely seeing an improvement in the texture & tone of my skin 😊"
