About Liwá
Founded on the Gold Coast, Australia, Liwá takes its name from the Filipino word Liwanag, meaning light. It captures our belief that beauty is at its most radiant when it’s natural, unmasked, and allowed to breathe.
We believe in enhancing what’s already there, not masking it. Guided by a respect for natural balance and Eastern approaches to self-care, we craft gentle yet effective formulations that work in harmony with the skin. Each product blends nature’s calm with modern dermatological science to support renewal, clarity, and lasting radiance. Every detail, from formulation to design, reflects our belief that skincare should feel as effortless as it is effective. We don’t chase perfection. We create products that allow your natural beauty to shine through.
Our philosophy
Beauty begins with what’s real.
Our philosophy celebrates the kind of radiance that comes from within: natural, unforced, and alive.
Our journey started with a simple idea: to create skincare that enhances rather than alters, and to restore balance where the skin needs it most. Each Liwá formula is Australian-made, crafted with gentle precision, uniting natural ingredients and advanced science to support the skin’s own rhythm of renewal.
We believe in care that feels effortless yet intentional; a daily ritual that lets your skin breathe, glow, and exist as it was always meant to.
Our light extends beyond skin. It embodies respect and care.
We believe true radiance begins with integrity - in what we make, how we make it, and who we make it for.
Science with intention
Each Liwá formula is elevated through advanced actives like Niacinamide, Peptides, and Hyaluronic Acid - bioactive compounds that deliver results while maintaining harmony with the skin.
Our formulations are designed for efficacy that feels effortless, blending nature’s calm with clinical precision to create skincare that breathes with your skin, not against it.
Naturally derived + Scientifically refined
At Liwá, over 92% of every formula is composed of naturally derived ingredients, carefully chosen for purity, safety, and performance. The remaining actives are advanced, science-backed compounds that enhance absorption, stability, and results.
Our formulations combine gentle botanicals, like Aloe Vera, Cucumber, Kakadu Plum, and Shea Butter, with proven actives such as Niacinamide, Peptides, and Hyaluronic Acid. Each ingredient plays a precise role in supporting the skin’s natural rhythm of renewal.
We embrace both nature and modern science, using biocompatible, skin-identical ingredients that mimic the body’s natural structures to maintain balance, hydration, and strength. The result is skincare that feels pure, intelligent, and effortless - designed to let beauty breathe.
Made in Australia with integrity
All Liwá formulations are crafted in a GMP-certified, cruelty-free facility on the Gold Coast, QLD.
Our formulations reflect the values we live by: care, respect, and conscious creation. We are deeply committed to reducing our environmental footprint. From formulation to packaging, every element is considered with intention. Our bottles and boxes are fully recyclable, designed not only to preserve the purity of what’s inside but also to protect the world around us.
