amio - meaning to orbit, go round, circle round, roam, travel round in Māori is a space dedicated to slowing down skincare and returning to nature. Founded by two New Zealander's with a passion for slow living.
Born and raised in Aotearoa, we’ve always felt a deep connection to the land and the natural world. As we embraced a slower, more mindful way of living, we realised that the same care we were putting into the food we ate and the lives we led needed to extend to what we put on our skin. Modern skincare had become crowded with unfamiliar chemicals - and it no longer made sense to nourish ourselves from the inside while neglecting the outside.
We created amio to reconnect skincare with nature and bring it full circle to the simple, effective ways of the past. By returning to pure, natural ingredients, we were able to declutter our routines, slow down the way we cared for our skin, and find real, lasting improvements by trusting in the power of the earth.
amio is skincare, full circle.
