At The Smart Sups, our journey began in 2021 when founders Damien and Shane recognised a gap in the supplement industry. Driven by a passion for optimising brain function and enhancing performance, they created The Smart Sups and launched Illuminate — a daily nootropic focused product designed to support brain function, memory, and focus.
As the brand grew, Sam and Tayla joined the mission, bringing fresh energy and vision. They led the creation of Unhinge and Ripple, expanding the range to support not just cognitive performance but also physical endurance and hydration. It was through these new products that The Smart Sups community began to take shape — connecting with athletes, gym-goers, and anyone striving to perform at their best.
From day one, we committed to doing things differently — no budget formulations, no cheap fillers, no shortcuts. While others tweak their products to hit a price point, we set out to redefine it, crafting formulas that raise the benchmark for quality and performance.


More Than Supplements – A Growing Community
From that point, it became about more than just products. It became about building a community focused on progress, performance, and connection. Whether you're pushing your limits in the gym, training for competition, or staying hydrated throughout the day, we're here to fuel your journey. Every product, every formula tweak, and every conversation with our community is inspired by one simple goal: helping you unlock your potential — physically and mentally.


The Minds Driving The Smart Sups
The Smart Sups is driven by the combined vision of Damien, Shane, Sam, and Tayla. Each brings unique expertise and passion, working together to design supplements that push the boundaries of performance. Their shared mission is to craft high-quality, innovative products that meet real-life needs and building stronger connections with the community that drives us forward.
