Formulated with excellent clean, organic ingredients.
Nealie products are handcrafted in Australia and they are cruelty-free and vegan, utilising only plant-based ingredients without animal testing. Ingredients are sourced from Australian Certified Organic (ACO) and Ecocert suppliers when possible to ensure purity and sustainability. The brand prioritises virgin cold-pressed oils to enhance skin benefits and maintains a minimal ingredient list, avoiding parabens, synthetic fragrances and unnecessary additives. While not all ingredients are fully traceable, the brand strives to select suppliers who share their commitment to ethical and sustainable sourcing, focusing on organic materials predominantly.
Nealie focuses on sustainability through eco-friendly packaging by using glass and bamboo jars, with minimal plastic components for hygiene. Shipping is conducted with Heaps Good compostable mailers, recycled paper boxes, honeycomb wrap and FSC-certified water-activated tape, alongside repurposed materials. The refill and reuse initiative allows local customers to return jars for sanitization and reuse, earning discounts as a reward for reducing waste. Nealie prioritises ACO-certified organic ingredients and employs zero-waste production practices, including compostable gloves and reusable tools. The brand sources ingredients, packaging and labels from Australian businesses to lower their carbon footprint and supports local suppliers while promoting the benefits of native Australian botanicals in its products.
Nealie partners with local shops to promote small businesses and strengthen community ties while engaging in markets and community events to share knowledge about natural skincare. As a participant in the Global Sisters program, Nealie receives support, mentorship and education to help empower women in building sustainable businesses and fostering a sense of sisterhood. The brand prioritises partnerships with small-scale, independent and women-led businesses that align with ethical values. The business is committed to sustainable operations by minimising waste through reusing, composting and recycling materials, including a return-and-reuse system for local customers that offers discounts for returning empty jars. As the business evolves, Nealie plans to further invest in initiatives that positively impact society and the environment.

Product Reviews by Experts


The combination of geranium, ylang ylang and lavender made for a beautiful scent. This balm felt very nourishing and soothing and I enjoyed putting it on my dry skin overnight; it felt much more moisturised the next day. I love that customers can return their jars for re-use! I also love the focus on Australian ingredients and commitment to community.


I found the scent to be quite pleasant and I love the way the balm just melts into my skin, leaving it feeling soft and hydrated. The packaging is also very sweet. I love that local customers are able to return the jars to be reused. I am also impressed that they support local suppliers wherever possible.


I like that the perfume is not overpowering- but nice! The texture is great and I appreciated that it is a usable amount, not in a huge tube. I was also impressed that it is made locally- no carbon footprint with imports!
