About Alma D’Ouro

Hello, my name is Erica. I am the founder of Alma D’Ouro and I am excited to introduce you to our collection. Alma D’Ouro, meaning Soul of Gold in Portuguese, is a botanical beauty brand devoted to creating exquisite, small-batch oils infused with organic botanicals and the finest plant-based ingredients. Each blend begins with whole flowers and herbs—such as rose, chamomile, calendula, and rooibos—slowly infused into nutrient-rich oils like jojoba, marula, and prickly pear seed. The result is a collection of nourishing, aromatic oils that restore the skin’s natural glow while inviting moments of calm and connection. Each small-batch oil is created with mindfulness and intention—using music, positive energy, and love during the process. As a yoga and mindfulness coach, I believe in the powerful connection between our well-being and the products we use. Born and raised in South Africa in a vibrant Portuguese family, I developed a passion for natural remedies and holistic living early on. At just 11, I wrote my first recipe for a honey and milk bath soak, marking the start of my journey in skincare. In South Africa, I also created OYA Preggie Balm, a natural balm to support mothers-to-be. My experiences living in South Africa, Portugal, Brazil, London, and now the U.S., combined with speaking three languages, have enriched my understanding of cultural traditions and natural remedies. Each product I create reflects this journey and my belief in nature’s transformative power.Read their story
