Herbalaria launches the Lemurian Seas Collection to support LAMAVE

The Ancestral roots family company, Herbalaria, located in the heart of East Hollywood, Tongva Territory, California, has been working hard to bring a product that not only supports LAMAVE but also connects us to the ocean. The result is their ‘Lemurian Seas Collection’ which features red marine algae and rejuvenating botanicals to give you lasting luminous hydration. A portion of the sales of all Lemurian Seas Collection products will be donated to LAMAVE’s marine conservation efforts in the Philippines.

The series is inspired by ‘Lemuria’ the Lost Continent of the Pacific and the “Lemurians - the Earth Keepers, the protectors of Earth Mother’s land and her natural resources. They are the original, indigenous brown-colored people, and dark skinned beings who walked and lived upon the face of our Earth Mother for eons of time.”


The series has three products: The Lemurian Seas Soothing Facial Cleanser, Restoring Peptide Serum and Hydrating Facial Moisturizer. The products are environmentally conscious, cruelty-free, gluten-free, paraben-free, phthalate-free, and vegan. The collection is ritually infused with Lemurian quartz crystal energy for spiritual healing that goes beyond skin deep.  

Even as a small family company in the diasporic Filipino community, we need to maintain our relations with the wildlife and the people of the Philippines. This is how we will continue the legacy of our Ancestors.
— Lyn Pacificar, CEO & Founder of Herbalaria.

Lyn is a Katuuran¹ and Albularyo² Indigenous medicine person. She belongs to the Indigenous Peoples ethnolinguistic groups of the Hiligaynon & Waray Waray of her most recent Ancestors. She is a first generation Filipina-American. (Read more about Lyn here)

We are very excited about this partnership and to echo Lyn’s words, ‘We understand that the spirit of the Philippines goes much deeper than a geographical location, and we are delighted to work together to maintain relations with the wildlife and people of the Philippines.’  We could not agree more.
