Nourishing balm by Rebeca

Nourishing balm by Rebeca

When I first bought this balm, I just couldn’t stop myself from opening it and smelling it again and again.

I guess these essential oils (geranium, lavender, and frankincense) got me 💐- so I wrote Rebeca a thank-you (see picture). She’s been crafting these balms by hand since 2021 in Lisbon, which is also her hometown. Her mission is to exclusively use natural, organic and cold-pressed ingredients - definitely no mineral oils, artificial preservatives, synthetic fragrances or petrochemicals.

Full list of these (addictive) ingredients: sweet almond oil, coconut oil, shea butter, cocoa butter, mango butter, beeswax, oat silk, vitamin E, and essential oils of geranium, lavender, and frankincense.

It’s €12 (+ €3.50 for the shipping) for a 50 ml glass, which you can take anywhere and give your body a hydration boost while being on the road - no matter which body part. One glass accompanied me for 2 months ish. Maybe I even sometimes opened it to just have a smell and calm my mind 😂

Give it a try and Rebeca will ship it you :)

Who is behind this?

I'm Svenja - I have the Ericeira bug since May 2022. When people ask me why I am so obsessed with Ericeira, I say: because it's like being in a village but with city people. So many smart, experienced people around, who love nature, sports, and fancy cafés (sorry, I don't want to be a hipster, but yea). 

Svenja from Erijoy

In April 2023, a local Uber driver in Ericeira recommended me that thing called padel tennis and since then I'm mainly a padel-girl. But you can also find me running and I want to start dancing again! During the day, I'm doing marketing for 2 small Swiss teams: a medical software company 👩‍⚕️ and a piano store 🎹

Why this site? Working in medical software companies is nice and useful. But I’ve been a manual therapist before and while it felt good to fix/care for a patient’s back pain, I always wanted to work on preventing medical issues. So my initial motivation for this site was to promote sports activities and healthy lunches.

Then my friend Zé came around the corner and started talking about how he really would like to build a platform where you can book all the things in Ericeira (like massage therapists, surf lessons or dog walkers). So in the end, with this site, we now combine his imagined booking platform and my healthy stuff :) Feel free to shoot any feedback to svenja+ze@erijoy.com
