🌿 In a world of endless skincare options - serums, peptide this, retinol that, active ingredients, injectables, microneedling, red light facial devices and seven-step skincare routines…it’s worth asking: does our skin really need all of this stuff??

Our skin is an extraordinary LIVING organ, naturally designed to protect, regulate and renew itself.

While many of these ingredients and treatments absolutely do have their place.. often more isn’t necessarily better.

Constantly introducing new products, layering active ingredients, experimenting with treatments and switching routines can really overwhelm the skin … confusing and disrupting the delicate & sensitive balance, rather than supporting it.

Consistency & simplicity are the MOST overlooked aspects of good skincare.

Our skin relies on a healthy protective barrier, adequate hydration, nutrients and consistent care….Then patience!

When we’re constantly changing things, how can we really know what’s working?

Supporting our skin’s natural functions with simple consistent goodness is key.

It’s as easy as 1-2-3…And it’s never too late to start!

“There was something in the scent and feel of it that was like a whisper reminder to take care of me too.”

I just LOVE messages like this. 💗 Because skin + CARE can be more than what we put on our face.

A ritual of slowly cleansing & massaging 100% natural, BEAUTY FULL oils into our skin… is….sooo mmmmmm… closing your eyes & breathing in those beautiful aromas - taking just a moment can be a teeny reminder that WE deserve our OWN care too.

This beautiful message just came from a customer after trying H**p Seed & Yuzu Cleansing Oil… and it made my day. 🤩🤩

AND this is EXACTLY how I want Zeja to feel for YOU too!!!
Make cleansing the YUMMIEST part of your day. 😘

There’s natural skincare… and there’s NATURAL skincare. 🌿

When I first started making skincare in 2014, natural skincare wasn’t really a “thing” …in the way it is today.

Now Natural is everywhere — and that’s such a GREAT thing. But what does natural actually mean??

Natural skincare commonly means products formulated with ingredients DERIVED from NATURAL sources — but the word “natural” alone doesn’t tell you what percentage of the finished product those ingredients make up.
And a “derived” ingredient may have undergone extraction, purification, fermentation, hydrogenation, esterification or other chemical/physical processing…it certainly does not mean pressed from a plant and put into a jar. (like our local olive oil is 🙏🙏 )

So why should you care? In New Zealand, there isn’t a % threshold that automatically makes a cosmetic “natural”. What only matters legally is that the claim isn’t misleading….

Many “natural face creams” are water-based (making up the majority of the formula) along with additional ingredients needed to emulsify, thicken, preserve and stabilise the product ….because of the water.

So from the beginning, I chose not to formulate “that” way.
I chose 100% natural ingredients — So much better for so many reasons. 💗🙏..beautiful organic, natural and local ingredients whenever I can. Ingredients chosen with intention.

🥑 Avocado Day Face Plant — everyday nourishment with a natural non toxic sun filter… a lot of customers still wear this at night

✨ Intense Face Plant — richer nourishment when your skin needs more.

Simply Beautiful Skincare

I LOVE facial oils. They are the real deal - they’re uncomplicated, super nourishing & oh-so nurturing.

Ooo & i’m all about the ritual too… warming a few drops, pressing them into my face, S L O W I N G down and really connecting nature with my skin, every line, bump, crevice..slow & intentional 🙏

I created two quite different facial oils - (3 if you count my incredible multifunctional H**p & Yuzu Cleansing Oil) because our skin is unique & it also can change.

VITAL FACIAL OIL ✨ Our richer, deeply nourishing treatment oil - I reach for this beauty once or twice a week when my skin (& soul) needs that extra loving-touchy-feel!

Strawberry seed, rosehip, camellia + Vitamin E, without essential oils. Naked & pure. 🌿
Bursting with nourishing fatty acids, carotenoids & natural antioxidants - sooo delicious for mature skin.

Rich, restorative & perfect at night. Massage in a few drops and let your skin soak up the incredible potency while you sleep.

🪷 LOTUS LOVE FACIAL OIL

My super nourishing, lighter, silkier oil with cold-pressed Moringa, Jojoba & Camellia, with Blue Lotus with its beautiful earthy, floral notes.
Gorgeous slip, easily absorbed & beautiful day or night.

Touch your face… and ask your skin what it needs?

contact me directly ..
PS - I LOVE LOVE creating bespoke blends especially for you if you have faves or your skin has specific needs. 🙏💗

Feed your skin what it understands, naturally.

✨ A little Sunday Evening Reset… and a BIG Hola Halo celebration. ✨

After a gorgeous soft launch at the Māpua Market today, seeing how much people LOVED the Candle Pearls concept, I thought this was the perfect time for a reminder to:

✓ Pop the phone away
✓ Make a hot cup of herbal tea
✓ Light a candle…. a Hola Halo Candle Pearl candle!
✓ Add a few drops of favourite EO
✓ Mindfully sip & meditate
✓ Stand & stretch
✓ Smile gratefully 🙏😊💗….LITTLE rituals go a LONG way…

And a wee side note…
A few years ago I started making essential-oil only candles because I’ve become super sensitive to synthetic fragrance oils - however , with increasing prices & the work involved they simply weren’t commercially sustainable. … this is a MUCH more cost effective process AND if you choose the plain unscented pearls & YOU can add a few drops of YOUR own favourite essential oil to the melted wax (instead of the diffuser!) ….or get creative & blend a scent your very own!!!..
I do have a few bags of my Limited Edition- “Kaiteri Sand” in divine Cinnamon EO available (& for only a few $ more than unscented)

Sooo a big th### to EVERYONE who stopped by today, asked about the pearls, had a play and took some home. The response exceeded my expectations!! I’m a bit hoarse from talking so much but i LOVED every moment!!🙏🙏💗💗

Easy peasy to use, 100% plant based • Wicks included • Use in any heat-safe vessel (with a 5 cm radius)

Available online from Monday 24th from 12pm @ zeja.co.nz
or DM to order now

Available NOW Louise Māpua Wharf.

Enlighten & Be.
