A revolutionary range of skincare products with an ‘unusual’ ingredient are taking the beauty industry by storm with Australian women claiming it banishes their acne markings within days.

Renee Alyce is the founder of Bescher, which sells a Regeneration Serum ($119), Anti-Ageing Cream ($129), Blemish Defence Serum ($99) and Calming Cream ($129) with the relatively unknown star ingredient sea cucumber collagen.

The Blemish Serum alone had an email waitlist of 30,000 people before it launched in February. 

Sea cucumber collagen is a natural source of collagen that helps to reduce inflammation and promote skin healing. In addition, it helps to reduce the appearance of acne and other skin blemishes.

Renee first learned about the healing properties of sea cucumbers ten years ago while living on a secluded island in the Pacific, which had limited access to modern-day products and conveniences.

‘My skin was at its worst. So after running out of foundation with no way possible of replacing it, I went on a mission to find other ways of protecting, covering and rejuvenating my skin,’ she told FEMAIL.

She spent weeks investigating her surroundings – soil, land and ocean – and noticed local islanders applying sea cucumber extracts to small wounds and infections.

Within days their cuts and rashes were vanishing.

‘Sea cucumbers are among only a few animals that have the capacity to regenerate damaged or lost body parts,’ Renee said.

‘They contain collagen, have antibacterial properties and a rare peptide that can rapidly influence collagen production, encouraging a boost in cell turnover.’

All things everyday skincare products aspire to be for their customers.

Researchers at the University of London confirmed that sea cucumbers have the ability to boost the elasticity of collagen in the human body.

Renee knew she was onto a winning idea and returned to the Gold Coast to build her brand.

Renee herself has experienced great success applying the serum and moisturiser every night, reducing her pigmentation considerably over a six month period.

‘It changed my life and the way I feel about my myself. I no longer have to wear foundation,’ she said.

‘That’s why I can’t keep it a secret anymore. I feel it’s my calling to share it with the world.’

Her customers are constantly sharing incredible transformation photos online to show how quickly their redness and acne subsided.

‘I got this product after I developed perioral dermatitis. Never had any problems with my skin so this was a shock. Stripped back my routine to just washing with water and then applying this calming cream. It took a good few weeks but my skin has now returned to normal. I haven’t had to use the cream since but now use the serum,’ Gina wrote.

‘I love your products and have noticed a considerable change to my skin. Unfortunately I didn’t take a before photo but can definitely see an improvement to skin tone and fine lines. I recommend your products,’ said Julie.
