Sometimes, the most beautiful things are born from the deepest emotions — love, grief, and a longing for meaning. That’s exactly how Nabi Beauty came to life. Not just as a brand, but as a piece of my heart, my story, and a reflection of everything I’m passionate about. It's also a tribute to someone who means the world to me: my mother.
My Love for Makeup & Skincare
Since I was a teenager, I’ve been fascinated by the world of makeup and skincare. It was never just about appearance — it was self-care, creativity, expression, and sometimes, even healing. Whether it was a touch of highlighter to bring out a glow or a calming evening skincare routine, I discovered how empowering beauty can be.
The more I learned about ingredients, skin types, and the science behind it all, the more I realized: This is not just a hobby — it’s my passion.
My Mom – The Butterfly in My Heart
The word “Nabi” means butterfly — and to me, it symbolizes my mother. After she passed away, I didn’t feel like she was gone. I felt like she had transformed, like a butterfly, flying freely — beautiful, light, and eternal.
She was always my biggest supporter, the one who believed in me even when I couldn’t. Losing her was the hardest thing I’ve ever experienced, but it also opened my eyes to what truly matters in life. Nabi Beauty is my way of carrying her love forward — her strength, her grace, and everything she taught me lives on through this dream.
My Dream: Building Something Meaningful
I don’t have big investors behind me. But what I do have is a vision. I want to build a brand that’s more than just products. I want Nabi Beauty to be a space where people feel seen and celebrated. Where makeup and skincare are not about covering up — but about lifting up. Where authenticity matters more than perfection.
I believe beauty shines brightest when it comes from within — but sometimes, it just needs a little boost from the outside.

Whether you tend to have dry, oily, or combination skin is partly genetic. Therefore, the cream that works wonders for your friend may not work for you. In addition to a balanced and healthy diet, your skin benefits from suitable skincare. However, to do this, you naturally need to know what skin type you have. In our post, you can recognize your skin type and learn how to care for it properly.

Normal Skin
Normal skin tolerates all washing substances and can compensate for any disturbances in surface condition in a short time. Nonetheless, even normal skin can leave its typically rosy state through intensive or minimal cleansing measures. Therefore, continue to appreciate and care for normal skin with high-quality care products that benefit your skin. After a facial cleansing with Natural Mild Cleansing Oil, the Skin Softener balances the pH level. The skin is thus optimally prepared for further care steps, such as facial cream or facial oil.A big issue for all skin types is air pollution, which simultaneously means oxidative stress for the skin. Therefore, it is particularly important to actively protect the skin from environmental pollutants. The red camellia - the main ingredient of all Sandawha products - supports the skin with valuable antioxidants against free radicals and oxidative stress. In addition, all products contain natural ingredients that do not additionally burden the skin with unnecessary chemicals.
Combination SkinMost of us tend to have combination skin, which is reflected in dry areas on the cheeks, around the mouth, and eyes. The forehead, nose, and chin ("T-zone") are usually a bit more oily with combination skin. The combination of dry and oily makes skincare not easy since rich care products can cause impurities within the T-zone. The Liposome line from Sandawha is excellent for combination skin because the textures are light and balancing. The revitalizing moisturizing cream is particularly popular for combination skin because it is not too rich. The dry cheek area benefits from the Sandawha Face Oil, which can replace the fats that the skin has lost. Further loss of moisture is thus prevented without sealing the skin.
Dry Skin
The dry skin type often tends to feel tight, as no to little fats are released to the skin surface. Fine lines and wrinkles show earlier on dry skin. An effective measure is products with a high lipid content, for example, camellia seed oil or mango butter. High-quality bioactive oils work best on dry skin and help ensure that the skin does not lose too much moisture throughout the day. The Oil Mist, the Oil Serum, the Ultra Rich Hydrating Cream, and the facial oil are suitable for a care routine for dry skin to bring the dry skin back into balance with natural lipids. For cleansing, the Sandawha Cleansing Oil based on oil is ideal because it preserves the skin's natural moisture.
If you tend to impurities with dry skin, we recommend our article about dry and impure skin. There we reveal how you can bring your dry skin with impurities back into balance.
In our collection for dry skin, you will find selected VIOLAINE products for rich care.
Impure Skin
Impure skin often goes hand in hand with oily skin or combination skin. But dry and impure skin is also possible. Reasons for impure skin, i.e., subcutaneous deposits, pimples, and blackheads, can be internal as well as external influences. In principle, a healthy, balanced diet with fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as small breaks from stressful everyday life, helps. Because permanent stress, in particular, leads to increased inflammation and impurities. Also, pay attention to gentle cleansing with a cleansing oil, which removes dirt, oil, and make-up without clogging the pores. A second step with a foam cleaner (double cleansing) is also recommended. The skin regenerates at night and whoever does not remove makeup in the evening risks that the skin is busy fighting free radicals instead of renewing itself.
In our collection for impure skin, you will find suitable VIOLAINE products that do not further weigh down the skin.
Oily Skin
Overactive sebaceous glands are responsible for the oily sheen of oily skin. The appearance of impurities outside the T-zone is not uncommon due to the increased sebum production and the associated clogging of the pores. Washing with a mild cleanser that removes excess fat is recommended. After cleansing, use light lotions that do not additionally weigh down the skin. Moisturizing products like the Skin Softener, Hydrating Mist, or Essence provide extra moisture instead of rich care. Oily and at the same time dry combination skin benefits from different care depending on the zone (see above).

What exactly does "vegan skincare" mean?
By definition, vegan beauty products contain no animal or animal-derived ingredients. Instead of animal-derived raw materials, we prescribe plant-based, natural, and organic raw materials to uphold our respect for life.
Why should you choose vegan products?
Vegan skincare offers a whole host of hidden benefits and important active ingredients that will nourish the skin and make you feel fresh as a rose. The plant-based ingredients in many vegan formulas, in fact, contain more vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and natural oils that help repair and moisturize the skin. This will keep your skin soft and protected for longer. These ingredients include vitamins A, C and E, oils such as coconut, argan and rosehip, seaweed, soy extracts, seeds and flower extracts, Goji berries and so on.
Vegan skincare products also tend to be more delicate on the skin. Those with sensitive, easily irritated or allergy-prone skin may find these products particularly useful as they tend to contain fewer ingredients that can aggravate skin conditions or can cause reactions.We promise.Nabi-Beauty
