PurposeAt 18% Zinc content, our surf paste is more concentrated than the fluid Elemental Day Silk, firmer in consistency, creamier in texture, less translucent, and specifically composed for active outdoor life, long days on the beach, just-one-more-surf moments, desert rides and mountain hikes – basically places where the Sun is high and mighty.
Helps strengthen and support your skin’s natural defense, balance heat/cold elements, and combat environmental stress. Deeply hydrates and locks in moisture.
For women and men of all skin types. All ages. Benefits element-beaten, environmentally-challenged, toxin-overloaded skin.
Massage a small amount into skin outdoor activity. If you don’t like the Zinc white Summer look, let it sink in for 5-10 minutes before heading out. Re-apply every two hours and after toweling. Can be worn under foundation or blended with make up, but be mindful that cocktailing dilutes the 18% active Zinc content and diminishes it’s potency. Can be used a a skin soothing barrier cream.

Lepaar is a skincare brand deeply rooted in nature and spirituality. Founded by Johanna and Christo, the brand combines ancient wisdom with modern science to create products that nourish both body and soul. With a focus on biodynamic farming and ethical practices, Lepaar offers a holistic approach to skincare that celebrates the interconnectedness of humans and the planet.
Treat yourself to the epitome of self-care with Lepaar's holistic approach to beauty, now.
“Our biological rhythms are the symphony of the cosmos,
music embedded deep within us to which we dance,
even when we can't name the tune.”
Each component is mindfully chosen for their uniquely active properties beneficial for our physical, mental and spiritual wellbeing, masterfully dosed according to it’s potency, benefits, performance, natural fragrance and interaction within the composition.
“We wanted to create a sustainable luxury skincare line, aligned with our wholistic ethos and love for the refined. Elemental body and soul food for true inside-and-out beauty, composed with naturally active ingredients, imbued with love: Whole compositions that honour the skin as our largest organ, nurture our body, and harmonise the spiritual beings we are. Regardless of age, gender, or ethnicity.” ~ C H R I S T O + J O H A N N A
"May the sun bring you new energy by day, May the moon softly restore you by night. May the rain wash away your worries, May the breeze blow new strength to your being. May you walk gently through the world and know its beauty all the days of your life."
~ A P A C H E B L E S S I N G
Using an age-old technique called sun-infusion, we slowly release the therapeutic components of our flowers, fruits, skins, leaves, bark, seeds, resins, even wood and minerals into biodynamic olive oil over a period of 4-6 months, sometimes up to a year for a very valuable vintage.
As a result of their more solid structure than that of leaves or blossoms, barks, roots, and skins take longer to extract. Additionally, resins must be removed from their water-soluble gums before they can dissolve into my oil.
This slow natural process produces zero carbon footprint and preserves the heat sensitive medicinal properties of our botanicals and cold pressed oils and synergises their healing powers in ways that stove-top produced extracts just can’t, in my humble experience.
It also allows me to use unrefined, extra virgin and cold pressed olive oil, whereas commercially, the less nutritious, refined and heat stable sunflower seed oil is used.
Rudolf Steiner, an early 20th-century German philosopher, humanist, and wholistic activist, pioneered biodynamic principles, homeopathy, and founded the eponymous Steiner schools, with which Johanna's family has been actively involved for four generations, from the schools' founding days to the establishment of schools all over the world. Rudolf Steiner's teachings on anthroposophy gave rise to biodynamic.
In essence, we see biodynamic as the evolution of organic farming.
Biodynamic concepts, which literally translate as "life force," aim to bring harmony to nature and perceive the sun, moon, and stars, as well as the earth, plants, animals, and people, as components of a whole.
Using cosmic forces, rhythmic stirring to activate natural fertilizers, the lunar cycle, and seasonal observation, biodynamic principles seek to establish a production cycle that is completely sustainable.
all to generate extraordinary, vibrant produce with powerful qi (lifeforce).
It's just a very organic, genuine way of being; it's not rocket science.
In accordance with the biodynamic lunar calendar, we combine during the new and full moons to channel heavenly energy into our compositions.
So that when we use our skincare, we can feel closer to ourselves and the environment.
At full moon, we combine our daytime compositions to capture the Sun's reflected light energy.
At New Moon, we combine our nighttime compositions to harness its reviving vitality.
