Raw Beauty Lab

I’m Sonia — pharmacologist, beauty addict and wife. My journey begun after a bleak winter of around-the-clock commuting and poor health. Long hours had taken a toll on both my body and my skin and no amount of foundation could hide the fact my skin seemed lifeless and was starting to show the signs of age.

In an effort to improve my health, and after having no luck with vitamin supplements, I begun experimenting with plant-based diets. You can imagine my delight when I discovered the transformative power of plants in not just boosting my overall wellness and energy levels but also in dramatically improving the quality and texture of my skin!

I’m Sonia — pharmacologist, beauty addict and wife. My journey begun after a bleak winter of around-the-clock commuting and poor health. Long hours had taken a toll on both my body and my skin and no amount of foundation could hide the fact my skin seemed lifeless and was starting to show the signs of age.

In an effort to improve my health, and after having no luck with vitamin supplements, I begun experimenting with plant-based diets. You can imagine my delight when I discovered the transformative power of plants in not just boosting my overall wellness and energy levels but also in dramatically improving the quality and texture of my skin!

Fine lines seemed to vanish in a matter of weeks, my cheeks seemed to glow with a light from some unknown source- I looked and felt great! I instantly became hooked on my new found diet and fascinated in discovering the secrets behind plant-powered beauty and wellness. 

I'm convinced that a decade from now, anti-ageing and beauty nutrition will be commonplace and no longer a secret weapon against the passage of time.

The science is now clear – the biggest contributor to your skin-health, beauty and ageing is not genetics, it’s your diet. 

There are particular plant-based ingredients and botanicals which are hugely restorative for the skin and their anti-ageing properties have been revered for centuries. These wonder plants can;

  • Help protect collagen and elastin fibres in your skin from premature degradation (aka early ageing)
  • Support your body to produce its own collagen directly in the skin itself for firmer, plumper and smoother skin
  • Improve skin moisture and reduce the appearance of wrinkles 
  • Support overall health and wellbeing at the cellular level - you'll notice the difference!

I started searching desperately for this wonder product that didn't seem to exist. It was incredibly hard to find a plant-based skin supplement and even harder to find one that was 100% natural.

Concerned with the lack of pure ingredients and the fact that supplement after supplement claimed to be 'natural' but was in fact filled with synthetically made vitamins, I decided to create my own skin superfood.

Armed with my background in pharmacology, my team and I developed Vegan Collagen - a breakthrough product which supports beautiful skin and wellness with anti-ageing beauty nutrition.
