Ethical Practices
Beetl Skincare develops products using gentle, thoughtfully selected ingredients guided by herbal formulations originally created by a doctor and herbalist, with safety and skin tolerance as a priority. Key products have previously been approved by the Eczema Association. The brand does not test on animals or use ingredients tested on animals. Products are manufactured in New Zealand, ensuring transparency and adherence to local regulatory standards, and the founders personally oversee sourcing, formulation and partnerships to ensure values are aligned with their own.
Sustainable Practices
Beetl formulates multi-purpose products to reduce the need for multiple skincare items and minimise overall consumption. Packaging is selected for durability and functionality, with an emphasis on minimising excess materials while ensuring product safety and shelf stability. Products are manufactured locally in New Zealand to reduce transport distances and support local industry. Small-batch production is used to limit excess stock and waste. The brand is also planning to introduce refills as it scales.
Social Impact
Beetl supports families by designing products for everyday routines and challenging skin moments and fosters a supportive working environment with fair pay and flexibility for its small team. The brand is transparent about formulations, ingredients and manufacturing, enabling informed customer choices. Beetl grows through genuine word of mouth and customer feedback and partners with organisations such as The Memo (AU), From Day One (Melbourne, AU) and Nurturing Families Charity (NZ) to support family wellbeing through community initiatives and events.
Product Reviews by Experts
This was my favourite in the category. The packaging is so cute and aesthetic that it genuinely brightened the shelf, but it’s far more than looks – the cream itself is lovely, gentle and effective, and being multi-purpose meant it earned its place for the whole family rather than just one use. It’s that rare combination of beautiful and genuinely good, and I loved using it. I loved that BEETL was created by a mum for her own children’s sensitive skin, because that lived experience comes through in the care taken. Previous approval from the Eczema Association gives real independent reassurance, manufacturing in New Zealand keeps the supply chain transparent and close, and being a mum-led business that hosts events alongside like-minded brands and charities shows a genuine commitment to supporting other mothers. The honesty about being a work in progress on sustainability, with refills planned, is refreshing.
What I liked most was how gentle yet effective it is on sensitive skin. It absorbed quickly without leaving any greasy mess, which makes it so easy to apply, and I noticed it reduced both dryness and redness. I loved that it did not irritate reactive skin at all and has no strong fragrance. It was an easy fuss free soothing cream that works well on delicate skin. What impressed me most is how authentically values led BEETL is, created by a mother for her own children’s sensitive skin. The cruelty free commitment and local New Zealand manufacturing point to real accountability rather than marketing, and I appreciated their honesty about still being on a sustainability journey while taking practical steps like refills and small batch production. Their “buy less, use well” approach and genuine community focus, from fair pay to family wellbeing partnerships, show a brand that is working hard to do right by families and lighten its impact where it can.
You can tell this product has been designed by a herbalist – it smells seriously AMAZING! It doesn’t feel too heavy on the skin, I feel immediately relaxed when I put it on my hands… so I’m sure my baby feels relaxed too! Beetl Skincare has done such a wonderful job creating skincare that not only cares for sensitive skin but feels like a special ritual between parent and baby. It leaves the skin feeling so soft and nourished; this is a product I genuinely look forward to using every day. Beetl was created by a mother wanting to support her own children’s sensitive skin, which means that you know this product was made with love! I appreciate the commitment to local NZ manufacturing and small-batch production.
