Nopal oil and tepezcohuite are some of the Mexican botanical ingredients that can be found in Nopalera's bath and body care products, which are colorful and playful in shape. The whole-body products for all skin types are powered by signature plant butters and oils.
43-year-old single Sandra Lilia Velasquez left behind a career as a professional musician to launch this new bath and body care brand out of her Brooklyn apartment mid-pandemic. Handmade products like cactus-shaped soaps and moisturizing exfoliants from the brand celebrate Mexican culture and they speak to a new wave of consumers. As Velasquez says, "There is a new generation of Latinx consumers who do not want to use their grandmother's Pond's cream. We want something beautiful, clean, and modern."
