ABOUT THE BRAND
OUR VISION
Merkaba Skincare is a consciously created skincare brand founded in 2020 on the picturesque Gippsland Lakes. Our vision was driven by the fundamental belief that nature will provide us with everything we need to nourish and enhance the well-being of our body, mind, and spirit.
Our hand-crafted products are formulated using 100% plant-derived ingredients offering you a connection to the wisdom and vitality of our natural world. We hold a deep reverence for our planet, the altar of our existence, and we honour the healing power and therapeutic properties found within the magic of the plants.
“For every human illness, somewhere in the world there exists a plant which is the cure. I believe that there is a healing potential locked inside plants which is integral with their evolution, just as it is part of human evolution to learn to tap this wonderful gift of Nature.”
OUR MISSION
To overhaul the unrealistic expectation of perfection within in the current beauty industry.
Your skin is an incredibly powerful organ that deserves to be nurtured, loved, and celebrated. We encourage you to embrace your uniqueness, break free from unrealistic standards and appreciate the beauty in every blemish, scar, and perceived imperfection.
Our products focus on skin nourishment and hydration, not youth and perfection because we believe that every person deserves to feel confident and beautiful in their own skin.
THE MERKABA PROMISE
We invite you to embrace a ritual, not a routine as you harness the power of nature to nurture your skin and calm your mind. Our approach to skincare is holistic and uncomplicated, involving three fundamental steps: cleansing, hydrating, and moisturising. This minimalist, yet luxurious self-care approach aims to establish a deeper connection to both ourselves and the natural world. Furthermore, by using less products, suitable for the entire family, not only reduces bathroom clutter but also minimises consumerism. We also avoid the confines of skin type labelling recognising that skin reacts to external and internal factors such as sleep, diet, hormones, stress, seasons, and age. Our advocacy is for the use of fewer, higher-quality products, aiming to prevent potential confusion and irritation that may arise from the layering of too many.
To sum it all up the secret to skincare is simple.... with the right ingredients, and with the right intention, you can achieve more with less!

Merkaba Skincare is a conscious brand, giving consideration to all life forms, humans, animals and our planet. With natural resources in mind, our decisions on ingredients, packaging, and shipping - down to the smallest detail - aim for a minimal environmental footprint.
We use biophotonic glass (violet glass) for the majority of our blends. This glass, used by the ancients Egyptians, is thought to be energised by light. It manages to block the complete spectrum of visible light with the exception of infrared and UVA (ultraviolet light).
This unique property offers optimal protection against the aging processes which occurs by exposure to visible light, thus increasing shelf life and maximising effectiveness of the ingredients.
This is super important to us as it allows us to naturally preserve our products without the use of potentially harmful synthetic preservatives.
We don’t use outer packaging for our products. As enticing as an attractive box may be, we maintain a commitment to avoid all unnecessary trimmings.
Our mailing boxes are fully recyclable, and we use 100% certified home compostable mailing bags.
We take great pride in always maintaining the highest levels of integrity and transparency.
