Body care for every body
Because everyone deserves to feel sexy in their skin.
Our story
Gente is a Brazilian body care line rooted in ancient rituals and backed by science. Founded in 2022 by supermodel Marianne Fonseca, it was born from her intimate knowledge of Brazilian beauty practices and a career spent in the beauty industry. Lymphatic drainage isn’t new to us; it’s how we’ve always sculpted, de-puffed, and connected with our bodies.
Combining native Amazonian ingredients, innovative biotechnology, and the practices passed down by our mothers, we make body care products that activate your lymphatic system to sculpt, smooth, and de-puff your body.
We’re here to bring the Brazilian way of care to the world, so more people can feel confident and sexy in their bodies.
Gente is the Latin word for people — and that’s who this is for.
Beauty that gives back
For Belly Firm, we partnered with Brazilian designer Gustavo Silvestre and Ponto Firme to create a limited series of handcrafted crochet bags, made in collaboration with formerly incarcerated artisans and others building new opportunities through their craft.
Each bag brings together Brazilian creativity, craftsmanship, and purpose — turning the art of crochet into something that goes far beyond the piece itself. A celebration of transformation, connection, and what can happen when creativity opens new doors.
Values
We stay true to who we are.
We celebrate every body
Brazil is one of the most diverse countries in the world, and that shapes how we see beauty. For us, ‘sexy’ isn’t a single standard or ideal to chase. Just people, in their bodies, feeling good.
We follow nature’s lead
Lymphatic drainage isn't a trend to follow — it's an age old practice that supports your body's natural detox system in doing what it already knows how to do.
We never forget where we’re from
Our Brazilian roots shape everything. From our ingredients to our rituals to our way of seeing beauty.
We operate with respect
From the Amazonian ecosystems and farmers our ingredients come from, to our cruelty-free testing and 100% vegan products — we believe how you make something matters as much as what it does.
For Brazilians, sexiness comes from confidence. When you're taking care of your body and treating your skin with intention, you'll want to show it off. That's when your confidence will shine through. Confidence is happiness. Own your own skin. From Brazil, for everyBODY.
