About us

Willow and Skin (Lutea)

A Legacy of Radiance. A Future of Glow.

Over 30 Years of Trusted Beauty At Willow and Skin, we didn't just appear overnight. Our story began in 1994 with the birth of Lutea. We started small, with a curated collection of just nine fragrances and a simple promise: to provide luxury that lasts.

Today, those nine fragrances have grown into a complete world of scent and skincare, but our foundation remains the same. The greatest testament to our quality isn't just our formulas—it’s our people. Many of the customers and agents who joined us in 1994 are still part of our team and family today. When you choose Lutea and Willow and Skin, you are joining a three-decade legacy of trust.

Our Three Pillars of Radiance

1. Inspired Fragrances (Lutea) Scent is the most powerful form of memory. Our Lutea collection is inspired by the world’s most iconic designer fragrances, reformulated into high-concentration perfume oils. Since 1994, we have mastered the art of the "long-wear" scent. Using premium bases like our signature "Satin-Glow" oil, we provide designer-quality experiences that remain accessible.

2. Science-Backed Skincare Your skin deserves more than just "hope in a jar." We formulate professional-grade anti-aging solutions right here in South Africa. From our Frankincense Gold Oil to our "dry-touch" facial serums, we combine 30 years of botanical knowledge with modern actives like Bakuchiol and Vitamin C.

3. Holistic Wellness (Collagen) True radiance starts on a cellular level. Our Pure Hydrolyzed Collagen supplements complete the beauty circle. By supporting your skin, hair, and nails from the inside, we ensure that your outward skincare has the strongest possible foundation to work on.
