Realea Skincare makes best-in-class skincare that delights the senses and tends deeply to body, soul, and spirit.
We have formulated a modern synthesis of traditional systems of medicine, featuring timeless ingredients and subtle techniques previously not utilized in the modern era.
Nothing but natural goodness
Every single ingredient is not only good for your skin, it's good for your whole system. From the antimicrobial properties of frankincense, to the anti-inflammatory properties of .... , we bring the timeless nourishment from traditional systems of healing and ancestral wisdom from around the world.
And, because western science always needs to rediscover the validity of traditional wisdom, here's a thorough list of modern clinical studies attesting to value of each ingredient. Read more about the science behind our ingredients here.
Fragrance forward
Truly healthy natural ingredients will come with a good fragrance. We don't add "fragrances"; all the delicious and incredible scents are a result of the natural ingredients themselves. The aromatherapy of exquisite energy.
Effective rejuvenation for bodies in motion
Your skin already has a natural ability to heal the scrapes & bruises that come from living well. Our products support and encourage that natural ability. We believe that the best medicinal approach is preventive—the same skincare rituals that keep your skin radiant are the very ones that regenerate. Read more about our usage guide here.
No toxins. No fillers. No synthetic ingredients.
First of all, stop poisoning yourself! A lot of what goes onto your skin is absorbed into your blood. You can think of what you put on your skin as a form of what you ingest into your body.
Currently, there are a lot of toxins that are not legally controlled. Sure, we're safe from the worst elements, but there are so many new, synthetic molecules which are clearly harmful. Or microplastics, or aluminum starch. These toxins can really bring your daily well being and resilience down in ways that are hard to trace.
Go read our white paper on the pervasive toxins, fillers, and other garbage that comes in the majority of all skincare products today. Large corporate skincare brands are developing new synthetic molecules faster than the FDA can regulate them. Go figure out what to throw away.
The best ingredients in the world
Our alchemist-historian founder has assembled a palette of the most exquisite natural fragrances and ingredients in the world. Learned from healing traditions throughout the world. Rooted in European traditional medicine, and adopting heavily from Ayurvadic, Chinese, and Middle Eastern medicinal wisdom.
You’d have to travel the world and find the masters to figure out how to get this high of quality fragrances and ingredients for your home beauty regimen.

A combination that harnesses the magic of Alchemy
Beyond just the quality of the starting ingredients, we put them together using the knowledge and methods of traditional alchemy. In order to create the most beautiful, energetically aligned, and exquisite skincare products you can find. A perfect treat super tasters, super smellers, and for connosiers with highly sensitive fragrant pallette. "Sniffers" as we like to ourselves.
One of the things we mean is the historical techniques and formulations that are recorded and attested in the tradition of alchemical literature.
We’re also talking about something that is timeless that is an approach to working with matter and spirit and the relationship between them. In a modern context, we might use the phrase “quantum chemistry” to describe what we’re doing with alchemy. In which the operator plays a critical role in the matter being produced.
The products and how to use
What realea offers is multiple things: it is the best all-natural, botanical skincare available. The bulk of our ingredients are derived from fresh plants, prepared the traditional way, using techniques like fermentation, distillation, maceration, calcination. (link to ingredients page). By virtue of that aspect alone, Realea is the best botanical skincare.
In formulating the products, we’re guided by the sophisticated and elegant and ancient traditions, of the alchemical worldview and philosophy, which, when applied, using both art and technique, leads to formulae is which all ingredients are highly complimentary, there’s a synergy greater than its parts, we’re working with subtle energies through the lens of astrodynamic timing and planetary correspondence.
Whether or not this excites you or whether or not you believe this, regardless, the final product still is incredibly effective. The product does not discern in those who believe in it or not. Furthermore, for those who are already on their alchemical path, whether they conceive of it that way or not, we’re working with energy in such a way that using these products will be much more than skincare for you. Any practitioners of inner alchemy, people who work with subtle energies in their bodies and of others in the environment—these are potent esoteric tools for the practitioner. Because they are a concentrated resonance of an energy that you are working to cultivate.
