Meet the owner, Gaya Samarasingha:

Personal skin challenges, unmet skincare needs, and her experience growing up with amazing natural ingredients led Gaya to create a revolutionary skincare line that is clean, simple, and effective.

Born and raised in Sri Lanka, Gaya came to the United States in 2004 with two suite-cases, love of her life, and full of dreams. She is a mom, a wife, an immigrant, and an entrepreneur who is passionate about not only skincare that addresses the needs of ordinary women and men; but also empowering women in business.

Since moving to the United States, Gaya struggled with multiple skin concerns from adult acne, skin discoloration to some signs of aging. As a young, working mom with a demanding career, Gaya struggled to maintain her 8-10 step skincare regimen and was unable to find a comprehensive solution to her common skin concerns. She knew she wasn’t alone.

After almost a decade long career in Corporate America, Gaya left her executive position to begin her entrepreneurial journey. Going back to her roots, in 2017, she created a skincare line using unique natural ingredients from around the world, ingredients that have been used in skin care rituals, Ayurvedic medicine, and daily diets for thousands of years.
