Australian organic cosmetics Grown Alchemist is sold in Russia for almost five years. During this time, many Russians managed to try the brand's products and make an impression about them. This is an unusual brand with an original concept, interesting packaging and a noticeable effect - definitely worth a try.
About Brand
The founders of the cosmetics brand, brothers Jeremy and Keston Mugis, worked in the beauty industry for a long time, but then decided to create their own brand. Their goal is a harmless formula that contains only natural extracts and organic ingredients, helping to care for the skin and fight the first signs of aging without harm to health.
Grown Alchemist revolutionized the traditional approach to creating anti-aging cosmetics. Now, noticeable results without chemical ingredients are real. Grown Alchemist cosmetics are made from natural ingredients using special technologies. The active ingredients of the products increase the production of elastin and collagen, improve intercellular connections and have an antioxidant effect. This provides an excellent result without exposure to chemicals.
The creators of the brand do not have scientific experience, so laboratories in London and Paris, as well as in the home of Grown Alchemist in Australia, are engaged in product development. There are also experts in ingredients who figure out what will bring the best result, and explore the technology for the proper use of ingredients. All funds are certified by ASO.
Face Detox Serum
The serum is very quickly absorbed, has a non-oil texture and is great for daily care. The product protects the skin from free oxygen radicals, fights against nitrogen and carbon radicals that are produced due to poor-quality food, daily pollution and solar radiation and are excreted from the body through skin cells.
The complex restores the structure of the face and skin around the eyes. It promotes cleansing of free radicals, makes the skin healthy and saturated with useful components. It can be used before applying other products, as it promotes deeper penetration of components of subsequent products.

The cream penetrates deep into the skin, protecting the delicate structure. Can be used as a cuticle care product. The cream counteracts oxidative and inflammatory processes, promotes the natural production of collagen, eliminates burns and heals minor scratches. Suitable for any skin type. Use as needed. āVanilla and Orangeā is part of the Grown Alchemist Hand Creams.
