Aleph Beauty Announced As NZFW Supporting Partner

Aleph Beauty has announced its role as a Support Partner for New Zealand Fashion Week 2026, bringing its skin-first, consciously created makeup to the runway across a significant schedule of shows.

As a leading New Zealand-made clean beauty brand, Aleph will be supporting key New Zealand Fashion Week shows with backstage makeup artistry, product, and expertise, helping bring each designer’s creative vision to life through modern, considered beauty.

For Aleph Beauty, the partnership reflects a natural alignment with New Zealand Fashion Week’s celebration of creativity, innovation and local talent.

"Fashion Week is such an important platform for New Zealand design, artistry and storytelling," explained Emma Peters, Founder of Aleph Beauty.

"For us, makeup should never overpower the person wearing it. It should enhance, support and bring the whole creative direction together in a way that feels modern, intuitive and alive on the skin."

Aleph’s approach to beauty is rooted in skin-first formulas, versatility and conscious production. Its multi-use products are designed to work intuitively across different skin types, tones and textures, making them especially suited to the pace and demands of backstage environments.

"Backstage at Fashion Week, you need products that perform quickly, blend beautifully and adapt to each face in the chair," she added.

"That has always been central to Aleph, doing more with less, without compromising on finish, skin health or creative expression."
