Built for the outdoors. Built for long days.
Built for the elements.
Salt, sun, wind — this is the life I love.

I’ve learned that strong skin isn’t about stripping it back.
It’s about supporting it. Protecting its natural barrier. Letting it function the way it’s designed to.

I’ve been using the Fermented Berry Peptide Eye Serum for the past 3 months and honestly… it has been an absolute game changer for me. 
Over the last year especially, I really felt like my eyes were giving away just how tired I’ve been feeling- fine lines, bags, puffiness, the whole lot. No matter how much sleep I got, I still looked drained.

I've used an entire bottle of the fermented Kakdu C brightening serum now and I can really see a visible difference in my skin... prior to using Alkylo, I had really impaired my skin barrier and it was not looking good...
I striped everything back and then introduced Alkylo and the texture and tone of my skin has improved massively! I found the vitamin C really effective but also gentle it never stings my skin. I'm really really happy with the product and will continue to use it!

Joannah’s Story

Thank you so much for building a brand like this! I have super sensitive skin and my skin is super choosy with products, but it's been weeks since I started Alkylo and believe it or not, it really works you can see the difference. This was my before photo before applying the serum, retinol, and eye serum. This trio is a lifesaver, my holy grail. I don't need a lot of skincare products now, just these 3 from Alkylo.

Years of acne, dryness, and irritation that cycled through my life like a storm I could never outrun. Multiple rounds of isotretinoin. Temporary relief, then back to square one. I tried everything I was told to try.

I am absolutely in love with Alkylo products especially Brightening Serum!
It makes my skin look fresh, radiant & glowing.
My skin feels softer, smoother, and well hydrated after using it.
I love that it feels gentle and lightweight on my skin.
Also, their eye serum is just Amazing, My under-eye area looks fresher and more hydrated after using it.
It absorbs quickly without feeling sticky.

Highly recommended!

I've been using this product for awhile now, and I'm so impressed, with the way in it has left my skin feeling.
It's dramatically reduced my skin imperfections and leaves my skin with a natural glow. It's non greasy and easy to apply.
I've noticed i havent been wearing as much make up either, as my skin is alot clearer and gives me more confidence.
The combinationation of the natural ingredients is also a big bonus, no nasty chemicals.
I have recieved lots of positive comments about my skin since using this.
I'll continue to use this beautiful formula and will recommend to my family and friends.

So far, my experience with Fermented Kakadu C Brightening Serum has been very positive! The serum feels light on the skin, almost weightless, and not greasy at all, which I really appreciate. I love the packaging, too. It is reflective of the ingredients - nothing harmful, just soothing and healthy. As to the brightening effect, I have only been three weeks into usage and will come back for more comprehensive feedback after two months, at least, to be fair.

This beautiful Vitamin C is so different to other vitamin C serums, and it contians Fermented Kakadu Plum & Tasmanian Sea kelp. It's so gentle and absolutely no irritation. It's gorgeous and really pure, just lightly press in and feel the benefits of radiant skin and a brighter complexion. Use twice daily after cleansing for best results. My skin is clearer, brighter, more radiant and refreshed, and looks much more awake than I am actually am.

The eye cream has been lovely and the Kakadu serum I’ve been using on my nose scar from skin cancer removal which has been making it look better and smoother after a day at work. I feel it also maybe tightens my skin a little too.

I love these products. The Fermented Kakadu C Serum makes my skin feel softer and more hydrated throught the day without making it oily by the evening or feeling greasy. And the Plant based retinal elixir i think has made my skin a lot softer and healthier.

I regret not taking before photos so I could see the difference but think my face is a lot healthier looking and I dont have dull skin anymore. Alkylo ks definitely staying in my skin care collection!

I’ve been loving this fermented Kakadu C Brightening Serum – the lightweight consistency is honestly one of my favourite things about it! My skin just drinks it up, and I notice an immediate glow after application. Over the past couple of months, I’ve seen a real difference in my skin’s brightness and a reduction in inflammation, which is huge for me as someone with sensitive skin who’s usually cautious about trying new products. Alkylo has done an incredible job with this formulation, and you can really feel how thoughtful and intentional the entire range is.

After going through my first bottle of the Fermented Kakadu C Brightening Serum, I must say I am super impressed with Alkylo. It has helped improve my skin’s texture and firmness, giving it a more lifted appearance. I’ve also seen a gradual reduction in pigmentation. There is a noticeable tingling sensation on application, which subsides quickly and hasn’t caused irritation for me. It's a new favourite and a forever addition to my skincare routine. Overall, a solid brightening serum with visible results.
