BGC, Philippines — Camarines Sur in Bicol Region, Philippines is not just known for tourist spots and culinary flavors these days. Recently, the Bicol region is becoming famous for natural ingredients and botanicals derived from Pili Oil, “a skin superfood from Bikol rich in Oleic Fatty Acid,” a heavent-sent for the skin.

Named after CamSur’s active volcano Mount Isarog with its bountiful hotsprings, beauty brand Isarog Beauty Botanics is made from the purest of nature’s gifts ideal for skincare innovations.

Trixie Odiamar, founder and CEO of Isarog Beauty Botanics, is from Camarines Sur herself. A global citizen with passion for conscious-living, nature, botanics, design, and travel, Trixie wanted to advocate cultural identity through her beauty and lifestyle brand by putting the spotlight on her brand’s Bicolano roots.

Trixie has spent years to develop her own rituals by understanding the stresses of modern life and wisdom of serenity that allows a person to be aware and honor oneself.

“I needed a local product that works for my skin problems, and I knew as Bicolana that pili oils have powerful properties that are very good for calming, nourishing, moisturizing and protecting one’s skin,” Trixie explained. “With courage and always wanting to showcase the beauty of Bicol region, Mt. Isarog, and Pili, Isarog Beauty Botanics was born.”

“We are more than just a personal and beauty care brand. We represent Bicol and our Philippine heritage by highlighting Bicol’s skin superfood: pili oil. We encapsulated folklore bathing rituals and remedies in our brand. Isarog Beauty Botanics was intentionally named after Mount Isarog to truly represent my home in Bicol, and to capture the essence and beauty of the legendary Philippine volcano – Isarog, Vulcan de la Agua,” Trixie added.
