Menteath Skincare & Scent: Empowerment, Tradition, and Transformation

Menteath Skincare & Scent, founded by Felicity Stuart-Menteath, is more than just a skincare brand—it’s a celebration of empowerment, culture, and tradition. Inspired by Felicity’s upbringing in the Fenlands of England, her father’s New Zealand and Scottish heritage, and her experiences immersed in diverse cultures through her humanitarian work, Menteath blends ancient rituals with modern wellness. Our approach to skincare is holistic, nurturing not only your skin but also calming your nervous system and supporting your overall well-being from the inside out.

Menteath’s products are designed to transform your skin and spirit, drawing from rituals and traditions from around the world. We infuse each product with carefully sourced, ethically crafted ingredients that are backed by scientific research to deliver real results. Our formulations are as much about wellness as they are about skincare—providing a sensory experience that celebrates beauty in all its forms.

Inside-Out Skincare: Calm Your Nervous System, Transform Your Skin

We believe that true beauty comes from within, which is why we approach skincare with a holistic mindset. Our products are designed to calm your nervous system, helping you relax, recharge, and reconnect with your body. This mindful approach to self-care encourages a sense of balance and tranquility, giving you more than just glowing skin—it’s about feeling good from the inside out.

Celebrating Tradition, Empowering Beauty

Menteath’s formulations are rooted in ancient rituals, including the Sudanese Dukhan smoke bathing ritual, which inspired our signature smoke infusion. We believe in the power of tradition to enhance beauty and wellness. The transformative essence of smoke, used for centuries for purification and healing, is incorporated into every product we make. This thoughtful blend of culture, tradition, and modern science celebrates all beauty by empowering individuals to embrace their unique selves.

Our carefully crafted products, from smoky body oils to peated facial cleansers, bring an authentic sense of ritual to your daily routine, allowing you to celebrate your beauty and reconnect with your senses. With every use, you’re honoring both the rituals of the past and the future of wellness.
