Fans of a “revolutionary” skincare range created from an unusual natural ingredient are so obsessed with its “absolutely unbelievable” properties that its new toner had a waiting list of 35,000 people and it sold out in just six days.
The collection by the natural Aussie brand Bescher Beauty uses sea cucumber collagen as its hero and base ingredient.
The latest product by Bescher, the Sea Cucumber Collagen Glow Toner ($109), is already proving to be a hit with shoppers, despite only launching just over a week ago.

And before and after photos from overjoyed users show how the product works quickly to replenish and re-balance the skin, while protecting it from external aggressors and the signs of premature aging.
What makes Bescher Beauty products work so well is the inclusion of sea cucumber collagen in all of their best-selling range.
Sea cucumber collagen is a natural source of collagen found in the ocean that helps to reduce inflammation and promote skin healing.
In addition, it helps to reduce the appearance of acne and other skin blemishes.
The founder of Bescher Beauty Renee Alyce first discovered the healing properties of the sea cucumber when she spent six years living on a remote Fijian island, where she was helping to develop a resort.
During this time she spent several years living with locals – with no electricity or fresh water.
“There were insects everywhere and the bites would get infected with the well water,” Renee previously told 7Life.
“Some of the locals had ulcers all over their legs, inches deep. After I got infections too – on my face, arms and legs – one of the villagers suggested I try using sea cucumber like they did.”
Having shipped in various over-the-counter pharmaceutical creams from the mainland without success, Renee was ready to try anything – and so she started fishing for the cucumbers with the villagers and getting out the collagen “like they showed me”.
“I tried a few little ulcers on my hands first and it cleared the redness in a couple of hours,” she recalled.
“When I put it on my face, I could feel it working straight away. It tingled and was warm then cool. It felt out of this world”.
Renee added: “When I took it off, the inflammation was gone. I danced around the island! I couldn’t believe it”.
When she got back home to the Gold Coast, Renee took her “lightbulb moment” to a marine biologist and compounding pharmacist, and she set to work founding a skincare line that was designed to stimulate the creation of collagen, cell growth and tissue repair.
Bescher Beauty was quick to go viral, with the Sea Cucumber Collagen Regeneration Serum proving to be the first big hit and generating $12,000 worth of sales in the first day.
But it wasn’t long before the entire sea cucumber range proved to be a sell-out, with the latest Collagen Glow Toner only proving to be the latest in a long line.
“What caught my attention was that this skin product had the basic ingredient from Fiji. So I decided to try it out . My skin has had a butterfly rash and pigmentation. My skin feels so soft and smooth. Hoping my scars clear up too. Love using both the serum and cream. Such a simple procedure to follow,” one reviewer of Bescher Beauty posted alongside illustrative before and after photos.
“I’m absolutely amazed with the improvement of my skin texture and reduction in fine lines after using the Bescher serum and Anti-Aging Cream,” another added.
A third said: “Better than anything I have ever tried, and I have tried EVERYTHING!”
The new Sea Cucumber Collagen Glow Toner includes a blend of marine biotechnology, Sea Cucumber Collagen, alpha hydroxy acids, Hyaluronic Acid, Lilly Pilly and Willow Bark Extracts to resurface the skin and leave it clean and hydrated.
Renee says the result of using it is “total detoxification and protection of your skin from external aggressors and premature ageing”.
To use the toner, all you need to do is apply it in the morning morning and night after cleansing, using a soaked cotton pad, gently wipe the face and neck area, avoiding direct contact with the eyes.
You can use it in conjunction with the rest of the best-selling range too, including the Sea Cucumber Collagen Regeneration Serum and the Sea Cucumber Collagen Anti-Ageing Cream.
And Renee has no plans to stop here.
“It took two months of nightly use of my products for me to feel confident in my skin, which made me feel empowered,” she said on her website.
“I had such an incredible skin transformation that I decided to take my ‘mask’ off and drop using foundation altogether. My mission is to help you achieve maximum results and I hope everyone loves the products as much as I do.”
She told 7Life that she is motivated by the reviews, and added: “I know how it changed my skin and how I felt about myself and I want to make other people feel that good too”.
