ABOUT
Our Maker
METTA GOOD was created in 2016 by Nicole Spear in San Francisco, CA in the tight-knit neighborhood of Bernal Heights. After her son was born she realized it was time to create the ethically sourced ingredient and socially minded business that incorporated her passion for bringing healthy skincare products to the world. She believes all companies have a social responsibility to conduct business with humanity and sustainability in the forefront.
Nicole developed her signature lip balm recipe over a span of two years before she finally felt it was finished. This care goes into all her products and delivers a quality you can feel and trust.
Nicole grew up galloping horses over fences, driving go-carts, and surfing in the irrigation canals of her home town in California. She spent her summers in the Sierra Nevada mountains where she would walk through giant sequoia groves and splash in cold rivers. Growing up the daughter of an almond farmer gifted her a love of growing plants and caring for the earth. METTA GOOD marries her passion for mixing handmade pure skincare products, her love of design and nature, cooking, and her devotion to sharing with others who seek healthy and sustainable alternatives.
Handmade, small batch, artisan lip balms inspired by love and nature. METTA GOOD is kindness for your skin.
Our Values
Metta is the meditative practice of cultivating loving-kindness. When we cultivate loving-kindness within ourselves, we can radiate it outward to other beings. At METTA GOOD, we believe that loving oneself begins with self-care: of the body, the mind, and the spirit. By using METTA GOOD skincare products, you are showing yourself you care about what goes on your skin and what goes in your body. Start your day with kindness by putting on your METTA GOOD.
