About Us
Meet Z
Hi there! I'm Zameera Reyes, a Texas licensed esthetician, cosmetic manufacturer, and the founder/owner of Beleza by Z. I have worked in the medical spa and plastic surgery industry, including my own aesthetics practice for over a decade. After struggling with skin and gut issues such as psoriasis and intestinal permeability (leaky gut), I became passionate about finding holistic solutions to these problems.
At Beleza by Z, we advocate diet as the primary method for addressing any skin condition. That being said, most conventional personal care products are made with endocrine disruptors such as essential oils, fragrance, parabens, or phenoxyethanol, which can exacerbate existing skin conditions. The skin, being the body's largest organ and first line of defense against pathogens, is teeming with trillions of microorganisms such as bacteria, fungi, and viruses. These invisible life-forms known as the skin microbiome, are an important part of overall health, hence the reason our skin care line is developed via bacterial fermentation. The fermentation process results in probiotics or postbiotics in the form of natural peptides, acids, and enzymes, which help support the skin barrier. We also include a few select dietary supplements that promote sleep, gut health, and overall well-being to compliment a beauty routine from the inside out.

Our Mission
Beleza by Z is a woman owned, small company that does not take any outside capital or funding. "I am committed to reducing our exposure to environmental toxins and to help solve some skin woes holistically, through sharing knowledge and by creating products in alignment with a healthy skin-gut-brain axis. Instead of mass-produced products made with harsh ingredients that strip the skin’s natural barrier and exacerbate inflammation, our formulations use bacterial fermentation, soothing botanicals, biocompatible ceramides derived from grass-fed beef tallow, and active ingredients which allow your skin, and our environment to thrive."
