About Gracious Minds
Gracious Minds was founded in 2021 in Melbourne, Australia, born from a desire to create mindful, holistic rituals that reconnect us with nature and our truest selves.
The brand reimagines skincare as a ceremonial practice, one that honours the evolution of the skin and the intimate link between emotional wellbeing and outer radiance. While the world often resists ageing, Gracious Minds welcomes it as a source of confidence, wisdom, and empowerment. Each formulation blends science-backed actives with the healing energy of Australian botanicals to nourish the skin, calm the mind, and cultivate presence through every season of life.
Harnessing the power of native ingredients through advanced cellular extraction, their products deliver potent phyto-compounds deep into the skin. Gracious Minds is committed to supporting sensitive skin with organic, gentle ingredients free from harsh chemicals, allowing the skin to restore balance, heal and glow naturally.
Every product is created with intention, crafted to inspire mindful self-care rituals that revitalise the complexion while soothing the mind.
Gracious Minds believes that ritual is a pathway to self-discovery. Guided by a deep respect for the environment, the brand is dedicated to creating considered skincare and wellness products rooted in nature. Their team continues to explore Australia’s remarkable biodiversity, seeking knowledge, wisdom, and sustainable agricultural practices to bring forward the very best in conscious beauty.
Their mission is to help individuals discover mindful rituals that support personal growth, emotional resilience, and holistic wellbeing. By clearing new pathways and championing innovation, Gracious Minds empowers its community to make positive, sustainable choices, nurturing a deeper connection with themselves and the world around them. -
Meet The Founder
In a fast-paced world filled with constant distractions and competing obligations, Kathryn Narelle noticed herself slowly drifting away from her centre, losing touch with her own sense of self. What began as a subtle disconnection soon revealed itself as a deeper lack of self-awareness, a quiet separation from her inner compass. Seeking clarity, harmony and healing, she turned to ritualistic self-care as a way to nourish not only her skin, but her spirit.
The shift was profound. These moments of care became more than simple skincare routines; they became meditations. Each ritual served as an anchor, grounding her in presence. Each product became a tool that guided her back to awareness. Through this journey, Kathryn realised a powerful truth: genuine self-awareness is born from consciously reconnecting with the body, mind and spirit.
This insight became the foundation of Gracious Minds. Created as a response to the disconnection many people feel today, the brand bridges the space where skincare meets soulful, mindful living. Kathryn built Gracious Minds on the belief that ritual self-care is not a luxury but a vital practice - a sacred pause to slow down, tune inward, and nurture a deeper relationship with oneself.
Every formulation reflects this philosophy. Ingredients are chosen with intention, designed to soothe, restore, and elevate wellbeing. Each step in the skincare ritual is an invitation to cultivate grace, presence, and gratitude. For Kathryn, Gracious Minds is as much about how the rituals make you feel as it is about the transformation they create on the skin.She warmly invites every person who encounters Gracious Minds to rediscover the beauty of self-awareness, explore the power of mindful rituals, and embrace the most gracious, connected version of themselves.
