Co-founded by Marlene Schluter and Olga Roberts, the local company offers “sustainable, clean beauty solutions” via a curated, three-step product approach. We caught up with Roberts to learn more.

Q: What is Collage?

A: Collage is a clean three-step skin care regimen that merges scientific innovation with the power of botanicals. Our carefully curated premium components offer gentle exfoliation and profound hydration, enhancing both skin tone and texture.

Proudly made in British Columbia, we emphasize outstanding quality through our small-batch production method. This ensures a keen focus on detail, resulting in fresher and more effective formulations that yield the best outcomes. By integrating natural extracts like camomile, rosehip and green tea, Collage artfully combines nature and science, employing powerful actives such as hyaluronic acid and niacinamide to create a skin care solution that is both gentle and impactful.

Q: What makes it unique?

A: Collage stands out for two key reasons. First, it redefines the anti-aging narrative by embracing self-nurturing and mindful skin care choices. Our high-quality, inclusive formulations are designed for all skin types and life stages, seamlessly integrating into daily holistic rituals to support overall well-being.

Second, our pro-aging philosophy features a three-step system where each product enhances the others, significantly improving skin health and hydration over time. This carefully planned layering system ensures that ingredients work together harmoniously, with botanicals and active compounds that amplify one another’s effectiveness. Regular use, including gentle exfoliation from white willow bark, refines skin texture and reveals a luminous complexion. By combining science, nature and consistency, Collage provides a transformative skin care experience.
