Kakadu Plum

Our wild-harvested Kakadu Plum is a potent skin-brightening active, rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, that helps revive dull skin, support collagen production, and strengthen the skin barrier, sourced through traceable, circular practices that support biodiversity and respect the Country, communities, and cultural knowledge connected to it.

Not all extracts are created equal. The results outlined below relate to the specific Kakadu Plum active we use, selected for its performance, scientific backing, and environmental impact.

Improves Radiance & Luminosity: clinically proven to increase skin luminosity by 30% in 1 month, with 100% of participants experiencing a positive effect. 

Kakadu Plum is exceptionally rich in vitamin C, which works alongside its antioxidant polyphenols to brighten dull skin and enhance natural glow by helping reduce oxidative stress.

Skin Brightening & Tone-Enhancing: clinically proven to improve skin tone evenness by 14% and reduce redness by 12.2%.

Gallic and ellagic acids help inhibit tyrosinase, the enzyme involved in melanin production, helping reduce the visible buildup of excess pigment that can leave skin looking uneven and dull. This supports brighter, more even-looking skin while helping reduce the appearance of redness and hyperpigmentation.

Boosts Collagen & Elasticity: clinically proven to increase collagen production by 144%, and  syndecan-I production by 90%.

Kakadu Plum’s natural vitamin C helps boost Syndecan-I, a key protein involved in maintaining skin structure and resilience. By supporting collagen synthesis and strengthening the dermal matrix, it helps improve firmness, maintain elasticity, and reduce the appearance of fine lines and sagging for fresher, firmer-looking skin.

Vitamin C Delivery: clinically proven to  Stimulate SVCT-I expression by 106%.

Our Kakadu Plum extract helps stimulate SVCT-I, the skin’s own vitamin C transport system, boosting vitamin C absorption at a cellular level. By helping your skin use vitamin C more effectively, it maximises its brightening, antioxidant, and collagen-boosting benefits for improved tone, texture, and radiance.

Antioxidant Protection: clinically proven to increase antioxidant activity up to 79% after 30 minutes.  

A potent mix of polyphenols, gallic acid, and ellagic acid helps neutralise free radicals caused by UV exposure and pollution. This protects skin against oxidative stress, one of the primary contributors to uneven tone and premature ageing, helping defend against visible signs of premature ageing and environmental damage.

Deep Hydration & Barrier Strengthening

By reinforcing the skin’s moisture barrier and boosting Syndecan-I, our Kakadu Plum helps skin retain moisture more effectively, improving plumpness and reducing the appearance of fine lines.

Respecting the cultural significance of our native ingredients, the Country they grow on, and the traditional knowledge tied to their cultivation and harvest is central to how we source.

Our Kakadu Plum is wild harvested in Australia in line with the Nagoya Protocol, with commitments to fair labour, Indigenous partnerships, and fair benefit sharing with local communities. Our supply partners prioritise traceability, biodiversity, ecosystem protection, and local conservation, with circular waste programs designed to maximise resource efficiency and reduce environmental impact.
