Sheree – Introducing me

Hola everyone,

My name is Sheree, I am the founder of Mia Piel Skincare. Here is my Story and how Mía Piel began.

My son Cameron Jay, had he been born a girl, would have been called Mia Louise. Back then I was unaware that Mía was Spanish translation for Mine. After learning some Spanish and wanting to share my story, it inspired me to include Mía in the name of my business.

This one is for you Cameron

love ya x

Originally from Belfast. I first moved to Ibiza for the summer in 2010 after experiencing serious trauma, the loss of my son at just 19. Ibiza gave me a new lease of life and freedom, a chance to escape Belfast and the stigma that had followed me around for so long. After Enjoying many summers dancing and performing in Ibiza, I eventually settled full time in 2018.

In 2019 I experienced more heartache, a combination of work and personal difficulties took me to a really dark place. Combined with Covid and all that came with it, I really did start thinking about my life as a whole. This is when the healing journey really began for me. I learned how to tune into myself, becoming more conscious of what I was putting in and onto my body.

Meeting my laboratory in 2022 sparked my interest in natural skincare. I also wanted to implement CBD into some of my products. I know the endless benefits of cannabinoids and wanted to create something could help me on a daily basis. And so the journey began. The first product created was the Body Relief Oil, which not only hydrates but helps with topical skin problems. My other 2 products then followed, with more in the pipeline.

Every piece of Mia Piel, the logos, the name, and the products all have a story and a meaning. I believe Mother Earth gives us everything we need to heal and nourish ourselves inside and out. Combined with my laboratory’s skills, I promise to bring you a range of high-quality products, The natural way, whilst respecting our beautiful planet.

This is my dream, my creation and my journey.

I invite you along to watch and join me.

Collaboration with Revive Retreat: Mia Piel Skincare in Costa Rica

Collaboration with Revive Retreat: Mia Piel Skincare in Costa Rica

Collaboration with Revive Retreat

At Mia Piel Skincare we are excited to share the highlights of our recent collaboration with Revive Retreat, held in the heart of Costa Rica. Our natural skincare brand, rooted in the healing essence of Ibiza, perfectly aligns with Revive Retreat’s holistic approach to wellness. This partnership provided a unique opportunity to connect with nature, nourish our bodies, and rejuvenate our spirits.

Each day at the retreat began with a deep dive into Morning mindfulness practices. Participants engaged in sunrise yoga classes, guided meditations, and breath work sessions designed to release stress and renew energy. These activities harmonized beautifully with our skincare philosophy, emphasizing the importance of healing, and nourishing the body from the inside out.

Revive Retreat encouraged attendees to step out of their comfort zones and challenge limiting beliefs. This focus on personal growth is something we at Mia Piel Skincare deeply resonate with. Just as our products aim to nurture and heal, the retreat inspired participants to embrace new experiences and discover their zest for life. It’s a reminder that growth often comes from pushing our boundaries and trying something new. Nutrition is a cornerstone of holistic health, and the retreat’s cuisine was a testament to this belief. Attendees enjoyed healthy, delicious, and nutritionally balanced meals, accommodating a range of dietary needs, including vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options. This emphasis on nourishing the body through wholesome food complements our commitment to using natural, earth-derived ingredients.

Nestled in the jungle, Revive Retreat’s location offered breathtaking views of Costa Rica’s largest waterfall. This serene setting allowed participants to reconnect with nature, which is at the core of Mia Piel Skincare’s ethos. We believe Mother Earth provides everything we need to heal and thrive, and the retreat’s natural surroundings reinforced this belief, fostering a deep sense of harmony and restoration. One of the most rewarding aspects of the retreat was the opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals. Sharing experiences and building lasting relationships is a vital part of personal and communal growth. Our collaboration with Revive Retreat, led by friend Ruby and Reka, exemplified this. Having known Ruby from our Ibiza days, it was wonderful to see our journey evolve and transform into a meaningful partnership.

Food For Thought

This collaboration was more than just a partnership; it was a celebration of aligned values and shared visions. Brands like Revive Retreat resonate with Mia Piel Skincare because we both prioritize holistic wellness, natural healing, and personal growth. Through these collaborations, we can tap into the right audience—people who will appreciate and benefit from our products.  We look forward to future partnerships that allow us to continue our journey of healing, growth, and connection. Stay tuned for more exciting updates and experiences as we continue to bring the best of natural skincare and holistic wellness to our community.

In conclusion, our collaboration with Revive Retreat was a beautiful blend of nature, mindfulness, and personal growth. It reinforced our belief that true wellness comes from a deep connection with Mother Earth and a commitment to nurturing our bodies, minds, and spirits. We are excited for what the future holds and are grateful for the opportunity to share this journey with you.

Big Thank You to Ruby and Reka for giving Mia Piel the chance to be a part of the experience! We cant wait to see to whats next.

End of the Month Reflection – Embracing Growth, Nature, and Balance

End of the Month Reflection – Embracing Growth, Nature, and Balance

Hola Mia Piel Fam!

Embracing Growth, Nature, and Balance. As we wrap up another month, I find myself in a whirlwind of reflection, gratitude, and anticipation. The journey of life, much like the natural skincare path we tread together, is filled with its own unique blend of challenges and rewards. This month, in particular, has been a profound chapter in my personal journey, marked by the vibrant awakening of spring, the energetic shift of the Spring Equinox, and the astrological dances of Aries Sun and the Libra Lunar Eclipse.

Spring: A Season of Renewal

Spring is not just a season it’s a vibrant renewing force, urging us to embark on a journey of cleansing and rejuvenation. As the earth sheds its wintery blanket, it invites us to mirror its transformation in our homes, our minds, and our work lives. This spring cleaning goes beyond the physical spaces we occupy; it’s an introspective process that allows us to declutter our minds and refresh our spirits. This month has been a kaleidoscope of emotions – a rigorous yet rewarding expedition marked by lessons, surprises, and milestones. I’ve never felt more connected to my body and spirit, and that resonates deeply within me. This spiritual awakening has not only enhanced my self-awareness but has also made me more attuned to the energies around me, including the intuitive senses of my dogs. Their ability to mirror my energy has been a powerful reminder of the importance of maintaining inner peace and harmony.

Our Brand: A Beacon of Healing and Growth

Our natural skincare brand stands as a testament to healing and growth, principles that are deeply intertwined with my personal evolution. In the spirit of honesty and transparency, I feel compelled to share parts of my journey with you. It’s a narrative filled with growth, learning, and self-discovery, mirroring the ethos of our brand. We have embarked on exciting collaborations with several retreats, paving the way for an inspiring future. Discussions are underway about hosting our own workshop, a space for learning, sharing, and growing together. This new venture reflects our commitment to growing a community grounded in the principles of natural wellness and holistic growth.

Gratitude and Laughter: The Essence of Life

Amidst the whirlwind of activities and emotions, one thing remains constant – the power of laughter and gratitude. Life, with all its ups and downs, is inherently funny, and embracing this humour makes the journey all the more enriching. I am forever grateful for the continuous support from each one of you. Your encouragement fuels our collective journey towards healing, growth, and self-discovery. As we share this blog across various platforms, we aim to connect, inspire, and engage with a likeminded audience. Your support and engagement mean the world to us.

Here’s to a journey filled with growth, laughter, and balance.

Thank you for being an integral part of our story.

The Journey of Self Love – A Personal Reflection

The Journey of Self Love – A Personal Reflection

The Journey of Self Love – A Personal Reflection

Valentine’s Day: A Celebration of Self Love

Valentine’s Day, often focuses on expressing affection towards others. Yet, it’s essential to remember the most profound relationship we’ll ever have is with ourselves. My journey towards self-love has been both challenging and rewarding, filled with moments of discomfort and deep introspection. It’s a path I’m still navigating, learning to appreciate and care for myself more each day.

As Valentine’s Day approaches, it’s easy to get swept up in the romance and the expectations of love from others. But through my own journey, I’ve realized a profound truth that has reshaped my perspective on love and life: the importance of self-love. Loving oneself isn’t just a feel-good mantra; it’s the bedrock upon which we build our capacity to love and be loved by others. It’s a lesson I’ve come to embrace wholeheartedly and I’m learning to cherish every step.

The Realization and Shift

My journey to self-love has been, to put it mildly, eye-opening. I’ve discovered it’s a constant process of growth. It involves asking myself tough questions, facing truths I’d rather avoid, and yes, enduring those inevitable cringe moments that come with deep self-reflection. Through it all, I’ve learned to appreciate the journey, recognizing that these experiences are integral to my growth.

For years, my focus was outward. I prided myself on my work ethic, always striving to meet the needs and expectations of those around me. But after years of relentless effort, often at the expense of my own well-being, I came to a stark realization, this path was leading me nowhere fast, and the appreciation I so desperately sought from others was fleeting.

It was a turning point that led me to create “Mia Piel,” a personal endeavor born from my realization that I needed to start prioritizing myself. The name itself, meaning “my skin” in Spanish, signifies the importance of caring for oneself, both inside and out. After all, our skin is the largest organ of our body, and through my own experiences, I’ve seen firsthand how the stresses and strains of life can leave their mark.

The Importance of Self-Love

Self-love is the bedrock upon which we build our interactions with the world. It teaches us that we cannot expect love from others if we do not love ourselves first. This realization has been pivotal in my life, reshaping how I view relationships and self-worth. It’s about understanding that you can’t pour from an empty cup and that self-love is not selfish but necessary. In my daily life, I’ve incorporated various self-care strategies that range from mindfulness to setting boundaries between work and personal time. These practices have been instrumental in maintaining my mental and physical well-being.

The journey hasn’t been without its challenges, from external pressures to internal doubts. However, overcoming these obstacles has only made me stronger and more committed to my path of self-acceptance. Learning to love the imperfect me has been a powerful process. It’s an ongoing journey, one that requires patience, understanding, and a lot of self-compassion.

Valentines Day with Myself

This Valentine’s Day, I’m choosing to celebrate in a way that might seem unconventional to some: I’ll be spending it alone, continuing my journey of self-love. It’s a decision that fills me with a sense of peace and excitement. After all, learning to love oneself is a profound act of courage and compassion. It’s about acknowledging your worth, embracing your imperfections, and recognizing that the most enduring and fulfilling love is the love you give to yourself.

This Valentine’s Day, let’s make a commitment to ourselves: to love, honour, and cherish who we are, in all our imperfect glory. Because at the end of the day, the relationship we have with ourselves is the most important one we’ll ever have.

To anyone reading this, know that the journey to self-love is unique for each of us. It’s not always easy, and it doesn’t happen overnight. But it’s a journey worth taking. As we learn to love and accept ourselves, we open the door to a life filled with deeper connections, greater fulfillment, and a love that transcends the boundaries of the physical heart.

Big Love to everyone
