From the red dirt to the pristine sea waters, this story has been more than 65,000 years in the making.
A journey where the world’s oldest living culture meets modern science to create a new way of doing business, one that honours both Country and Sea.
Lanje, led by Rosanna Angus, a proud Bardi Jawi woman from the Dampier Peninsula in northern Western Australia, represents a unique collaboration between First Nations cultural knowledge, the Cygnet Bay Pearl family, and the scientific innovation of PhycoHealth, supported by the Marine Bioproducts CRC.
Launched at Marine BioConnect 2025, Lanje is more than a skincare range. It is a living model of respect, reciprocity, and regeneration, proving how culture and science can thrive side by side.
“Lanje is more than a product. It’s a conversation. It’s a regenerative supply chain.”, Rosanna said. “It’s a test bed for real-world healing, especially for those most in need. And it begins here, with our partnership across sea and soil, across culture and science.”.
Each ingredient in Lanje Triple Tide Replenish + Repair Carrier Cream tells a story of connection and co-creation:
- Phyaluronic® from Species 84 (Ulva sp.): A marine glycan polymer cultivated by PhycoHealth, mirroring human hyaluronic acid to hydrate and restore the skin.
- Black Lip Rock Oyster Extract: A sourced from the pristine waters of Cygnet Bay, symbolising purity, endurance, and life.
- Pearl Oyster Extract: Rich in marine minerals that embody beauty and resilience.
- Emu Apple: A desert fruit brimming with antioxidants, linking inland healing traditions to coastal renewal.
- Gubinge (Kakadu Plum): Among the world’s richest sources of vitamin C, treasured in traditional medicine.
- White Cypress Oil: Native to Australia’s heartlands, adding natural antibacterial and grounding aromatic properties.
Together, these ingredients form a harmony of sea and land molecules, a formulation built on respect for nature, powered by science, and inspired by the strength of Country. Lanje embodies what the Marine Bioproducts CRC stands for: collaboration, respect, and innovation built on culture and science, together.
