SABBIA began with my own search for healthier skin, but the philosophy behind it started much earlier.
Growing up in Far North Queensland, surrounded by the Daintree and its incredible biodiversity, I developed an early appreciation for Australian botanicals and the knowledge held within the natural world. At home, my Italian heritage taught me something equally important. My mum and Nonna made things from scratch, with care, patience and an understanding that quality comes from doing things properly.
Years later, after struggling with acne and finding that increasingly harsh treatments only left my skin more inflamed, I returned to those principles, working with the skin rather than against it.
That thinking still shapes SABBIA today. We bring together purposeful Australian botanicals, modern skin science and a more considered approach to formulation to create skincare that is effective, uncomplicated and made to support your skin for the long term.
Katie Tingle
Founder, SABBIA
Our values are shaped by intention, a belief in simplicity, purpose and choosing well. Efficacy brings together nature’s intelligence and modern skin science to create formulations that support the skin and deliver meaningful results. Quality is rooted in our heritage: taking the time, choosing exceptional ingredients and doing things properly.
We believe in transparency, so every ingredient has a clear purpose, and responsibility, creating with consideration for your skin, our environment and what we leave behind.
Our approach sits between two worlds: the traditional knowledge that first shaped our understanding of ingredients and the modern science that allows us to understand how they perform.
We work alongside experienced cosmetic and dermal experts to create formulations with purposeful ingredients, research-supported concentrations and respect for the skin barrier.
Traditional intelligence. Modern formulation. Serious results.
We formulate with ingredients selected for what they contribute to the skin - not because they are trending, sound impressive or make a formula more marketable.
Our approach is simple: use what is necessary, at purposeful levels, and leave out what isn’t.
SABBIA means sand in Italian - a reminder that what we create should leave as little impact behind as possible.
Our glass bottles are designed to be kept, while refill formats allow you to replenish the product without replacing the original packaging. Around 90% of returning customers choose to refill, helping reduce shipping emissions by more than 75% compared with sending our heavier original packaging each time.
Every SABBIA product begins with a concept from our Founder and is developed alongside specialists who bring decades of experience across cosmetic formulation, dermal therapies and manufacturing.
It’s a collaborative process that takes each product from concept and ingredient selection through testing, scale-up and manufacturing.
