A pioneer in luxury tallow skincare, Zameera Reyes is a Texas licensed esthetician and the chief research & developer of Beleza by Z. She began her career in Houston, Texas, where she integrated laser treatments with skin care products and other cosmetic procedures. With over a decade of experience in clinical aesthetics and cosmetic science, she realized most personal care products marketed to women are made with fragrance, essential oils, PFAS chemicals, and other endocrine disruptors which may be unsafe during pregnancy and breastfeeding, or that can worsen inflammatory skin conditions. As a result of her personal struggle with a chronically compromised skin barrier caused by psoriasis, she also struggled to find cosmetics that were in alignment with her standards of efficacy, craftsmanship, and sustainability. So she became inspired about manufacturing holistic skin care solutions for herself and for anyone seeking to minimize exposure to potential irritants and toxins in cosmetics.

We draw inspiration from ancient wisdom to create advanced skin care formulas that are both effective and sustainable. Instead of harsh preservatives and plant-based oils which oxidize quickly and that are more likely to trigger allergic reactions, we rely on natural fermentation and animal-based emollients such as suet-derived tallow, a byproduct of the beef industry. Through our innovative nose-to-tail manufacturing approach, we repurpose what would otherwise be waste into a luxurious skin care experience.

We've perfected a rendering and purification process that eliminates impurities and odors, producing a smooth, unscented tallow without the need for endocrine disrupting chemicals like essential oils and fragrance.

Our eco-friendly packaging features printed glass bottles with hygienic pump dispensers instead of jars with sticker labels or plastic tubes.

Each product is developed by us —never private labeled or customized from a bulk base— and we oversee every step of the process from formulation to shipping. Our state-of-the-art production plant adheres to strict industry standards and regulations. It is equipped with advanced machinery and quality control systems to manufacture, fill, package, and distribute cosmetics efficiently, ensuring compliance with health and environmental guidelines.
