Founder note
Yaama,
I am a proud Gamilaroi and Bundjalung woman, born and raised on Awabakal Country in Newcastle.
The teachings of my late Grandfather and Grandmother have shaped my life and the spirit of Deadly Skincare.
My Grandfather taught me the power of education, the importance of preserving knowledge, and to never forget where I come from. His words guide everything I do.
Deadly Skincare was created from a deep calling: to share the powerful benefits of our native botanicals and Indigenous bush medicine while making a lasting impact on the beauty industry.
I saw a gap a need for skincare that didn’t just use native ingredients, but truly honoured our cultural richness, our healing traditions, and our connection to land.
At Deadly Skincare, ancient wisdom and modern science come together crafting high-performance, ethical skincare that delivers real results without compromise.
Each product is a tribute to my heritage, my community, and the stories passed down through generations.
Through Deadly Skincare, I aim to empower, educate, and foster a deeper appreciation for Indigenous culture while building a more sustainable, ethical future for the beauty industry.
We don’t just make skincare. We tell stories. We honour Country. We celebrate culture.
Gaba Nginda "Thank you". Yaalu "Later".
