About Us
Welcome to Filakia, where we focus on small-batch, handmade beauty products. Everything is thoughtfully developed with clean ingredients that support your natural glow without compromise, toxins, or unnecessary ingredients.
I was inspired to start Filakia because my son suffered from severe eczema when he was a baby. For a while, I thought we finally had it under control, but a few years later it came back even worse than before. This time, not only did the eczema return, but he also suddenly developed multiple allergies. I realized it wasn’t just about what I put into his body-it was equally important to pay attention to what I put onto his skin. That realization fueled my determination to find safer, more nourishing options and ultimately sparked the passion behind my business.
Our mission is simple - to create everyday essentials that make you feel good inside and out. From our ultra-hydrating lip balms to our delicately crafted whipped tallow balm, each homemade product is made with intention, purity, and care.
Filakia is derived from the Greek root philia (φιλια) meaning "friendship" or "affectionate regard". Filakia also means little kisses!
We appreciate you visiting us and hope you love our products!
Safe for Kids
When caring for delicate little lips, less is truly more. From the first pretend makeup moments to tween glam, every stage should be safe. Even small amounts of these chemicals can make a big impact on developing bodies.
At Filakia, we are free from harsh chemicals, synthetic preservatives, dyes and toxins so kids can play, sparkle, and smile without worry.
Perfect for tweens!
Conventional lip products today contain a surprising number of synthetic chemicals. For tweens, whose bodies are still developing, regular exposure to these ingredients can be concerning. By selecting lip balms that are crafted with nature's best, you are promoting both health and natural beauty.
Beeswax creates a protective barrier to lock in moisture.
Butters soften your lips while delivering a boost of vitamins.
Extra virgin olive oil is rich in antioxidants and offers a protective barrier that soothes your lips.
Essential oils not only smell amazing but also provide anti-inflammatory properties.
