Our story
Small-batch skincare
Made slowly, on purpose.
Oleia is a small skincare studio in Lisbon. We press, pour and bottle everything ourselves, a few hundred jars at a time.
Nº 01 — How it began
Oleia began in 2019 at a kitchen table in Alfama, with one oil, a borrowed press and a lot of patience.
Marta Oliveira was a pharmacist tired of labels she couldn’t explain to her own customers. She started making a rosehip oil for friends, then for friends of friends, and slowly the kitchen became a studio.
Today we are a team of seven. We still work in small batches, still press our oils every Monday, and still write every ingredient list so that anyone can read it.
Nº 02 — What we hold on to
Three rules, no exceptions.
01
Few ingredients
Never more than eleven per formula. If something doesn’t earn its place, it goes.
02
Small batches
Pressed every Monday and bottled within the week, so what you open is fresh.
03
Glass, not plastic
Amber glass and paper wherever we can, and a refill for every five empties.
