Frequently Asked Questions About Nala Native Rituals

If you’re new to Nala Native, this is the best place to begin.

Our approach to skincare is simple, seasonal, and intuitive, designed to support your skin’s natural rhythm rather than force change.

I’m new here. Where should I start?

Begin with the ritual itself.

All Nala Native skincare is built around a simple, flexible 4 step ritual that can be layered or simplified depending on how your skin feels.

→ Ritual Guide

I don’t know my skin type, does that matter?

Not really.

Instead of rigid skin “types,” we focus on how your skin feels right now. Skin shifts with stress, climate, hormones, and seasons, and your ritual should be able to shift with it.

How do I choose the right ritual or products?

Start simple.

Many people begin with:

• A Ritual Set curated for their current skin state

• Or just two core products and build slowly over time

Every product is designed to work together, so there’s no wrong place to begin.

→ All Ritual Sets

Is Nala Native suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes.

Our formulas are gentle, barrier-supportive, and free from harsh surfactants, synthetic fragrance, parabens, and sulphates. If your skin is reactive, we recommend starting slowly and keeping your ritual minimal.

Do I need to follow a strict routine every day?

No.

Some days your skin will want the full ritual. Other days it will need less.

This is slow beauty, listening, adjusting, and responding over time.

What is the Nala Native 4-Step Clean Beauty Ritual?

Nala Native skincare is built around a simple, intuitive 4 step ritual designed to support your skin’s natural rhythm.

1. Cleanse: Remove impurities with Emu Apple Milk Cleanser

2. Mist: Hydrate and tone with Quandong Hydration Mist

3. Moisturise: Lock in hydration with Desert Lime Daily Moisturiser

4. Nourish (PM): Seal in moisture and support repair with Jojoba Renewal Oil

This is the foundation of every Nala Native routine, gentle, intentional, slow beauty for daily skin health.

You can follow all four steps or simplify depending on your lifestyle and how your skin feels.

What’s the difference between the Ritual Sets?

Each Ritual Set is built from the same four core products, arranged to support different skin states.

• AM + PM Ritual: Full morning and evening routine

• Simple Essentials Ritual: Cleanser + Moisturiser for minimal care and beginners

• Hydration Ritual: For dry, tight, or weather-worn skin

• Radiance Ritual: For dull or uneven-feeling skin

• Evening Restore Ritual: PM repair ritual using Mist + Oil

• Calm Ritual: A gentle routine for red, sensitive, or reactive skin

The products remain the same, the layering and focus change.

How do I choose the right ritual?

Choose based on how your skin feels today:

• Tight or dry → Hydration Ritual

• Red or reactive → Calm Ritual

• Dull or tired → Radiance Ritual

• Dry at night → Evening Restore Ritual

• Balanced → AM + PM Ritual

• Minimal care → Simple Essentials Ritual

If you’re unsure, start simple or use the Find My Ritual Match guide.

Do I need to do all four steps every day?

No. Your skin will tell you.

Morning: Cleanser → Mist → Moisturiser
Night: Mist → Moisturiser → Oil (or Mist → Oil on dry nights)

Some days you’ll use the full ritual.
Some days you’ll only cleanse and moisturise.

This is slow beauty, not a rigid routine.

Can I mix and match products or rituals?

Yes. Every Nala Native product is designed to work together.

You can start with a ritual set and personalise it over time as your skin changes.

Do seasonal changes affect how I use the ritual?

Yes, gently.

• Summer: Mist + Moisturiser

• Winter: Moisturiser + Oil

• Spring: Cleanser + Mist + Moisturiser

• Autumn: Moisturiser + Oil or full ritual

The products stay the same. The layering shifts with climate.

How long will my ritual last?

• Cleanser (200ml): 2–3 months

• Mist (100ml): 1.5–2 months

• Moisturiser (50ml): 1–1.5 months

• Face Oil (30ml): 1.5–2 months

• Minis (20ml): 1–2 weeks

How do I know what my skin needs right now?

Your skin gives signals before it gives symptoms.

Tightness, redness, congestion, or dullness are not flaws, they’re messages. Noticing how your skin feels after cleansing and throughout the day will guide which layers and textures feel most supportive.

Nala rituals are designed to adjust with your skin, not override it.

What if my skin changes with the seasons?

That’s natural.

Skin responds to shifts in weather, light, humidity, and indoor heating. Seasonal change doesn’t mean starting over, it means listening and adjusting your ritual gently.

Is this routine suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Nala Native was created with sensitivity in mind.

Our formulas support the skin barrier and avoid harsh surfactants, synthetic fragrance, and unnecessary actives.

If your skin is reactive, start slowly and keep your ritual simple.

What makes Nala Native skincare different? Nala Native blends ancestral plant wisdom with native Australian botanicals and clean, minimalist formulation.
Every product is vegan, cruelty-free, palm oil–free, and crafted in small batches using sustainable practices that honour land, lineage, and slow beauty.

Are your products suitable for sensitive skin? Yes. Our formulas are gentle, low-irritation, and free from parabens, sulphates, synthetic fragrance, and harsh chemicals.
Every ritual is designed to support sensitive, dry, oily, combination, and balanced skin, using barrier-friendly botanicals.

Do you offer sample sizes or travel kits? Yes, our 20ml Ritual Minis are available for all core products.
They’re ideal for travel, first-time natural skincare, or experiencing a ritual before choosing full-size products.

How much does shipping cost? For Australian orders under $120 AUD, we charge a flat rate of $15.00. Orders over $120 AUD receive free shipping.
International shipping is calculated at checkout based on location and parcel weight.

How long does shipping take?
