MEET THE FOUNDER

Holly Owens

For me, skincare should be simple. Nature gave us everything we need to nourish, treat and heal ourselves, and one life-changing gift for me was honeybees. I’ve witnessed first-hand the power of these incredible little insects after using their restorative venom to self-heal from a 6-year battle with Lyme Disease.

For the past 16 years, my face has been a big part of my career as a model. But when Lyme started to wreak havoc on my skin, honey was one of the only things that actually soothed and treated my inflammation, instead of making it worse. I couldn’t find a honey-based product with clean, conscious ingredients that worked for me – so I made one. 

Meet YAARA Honey Oil. It harnesses the healing power of honey, to deeply nourish, hydrate and soothe the skin. I worked alongside an incredible California-based chemist to source high-quality ingredients like honey, propolis, sea buckthorn, jojoba, lemon balm, rosehip and tamanu. The result is an ultra-luxe, plant-powered facial oil that’s effective for all skin types (especially the sensitive ones).

YAARA is about loving your skin and loving the planet. I can’t wait for you to experience the healing power of honey

OUR PROMISE

OUR PROMISE

YAARA is about loving your skin and loving the planet. We believe that your mind, body and skin are all interconnected. When you choose a product, it should be done so with thoughtful intention — and full transparency — because what you put in and on your body matters.

At YAARA, no parabens, synthetic fragrance or colors, mineral oils or gluten are ever used in any of our formulas. Our oils are all cold-pressed versus heat-solvent, which retains the oils’ natural nutrients. Everything we use is high-quality and organic, highly potent, and from the earth (or its little helpers). Each carefully selected ingredient was chosen for its ability to truly nourish, hydrate and soothe the skin, for a more radiant-looking you.
