Beauty is not earned or granted; it is claimed.
Beauty is for everyone. For those who have felt excluded, forgotten, or oppressed by beauty, we invite you to reclaim it. All Terra Stoma offerings are made with reverence for the innate beauty we all possess. Our practices give us space to challenge exclusionary perceptions, including our own.
there is self-care in self-expression.
Giving ourselves permission to play and be creative IS an act of self-care. We want your beauty ritual to be the thing you look forward to and find safety & nourishment in. Whether engaging in loving touch with a facial oil, uplifting your spirit with an herbal formula, or wearing a bold color that makes you feel chingona on the days you forget.
allowing ourselves to be seen is a revolution.
Expression is woven into who we are as humans, as both a birthright and a necessity. Engaging with our creative energy and sharing that with the world is a radical act. We do not dim ourselves to make others comfortable. We shine to invoke a new way of living in the world.
Terra Stoma is an invitation to love yourself through color - to indulge in creative play and Glow like the star stuff you are.

Growing up mixed-race in white spaces, a late bloomer, and often labeled a "weirdo", I always felt dissonant with the primary beauty narrative. I tried hard to mold myself to certain beauty standards, but inside worried if I'd ever be able to truly love and accept my honest self. It seemed unfair to feel shame and rejection over things that were a natural part of me and couldn't be changed.
As I got older, I stopped wearing makeup, spent years peeling back layers of imposed beauty standards, and rebuilt trust and safety with myself. I eventually found my way back to makeup, but this time for creative expression, as a reclamation of beauty.
Unable to find natural products on the market that were bold, vibrant, and suited for diverse skin tones, I began applying my knowledge of herbal product making to cosmetics.
Terra Stoma was born out of a deep love of creating and a reverence for the uniqueness and beauty of others. We are all worthy of feeling safe & seen. We all have a right to feel good in our bodies.
Self-love is not a destination or event; it's a practice. *Wherever* you are on this journey, thank you for allowing me to be a part of your practice.
