The Story Behind Garbo

Every brand has a story. Welcome to ours.

Hi, I'm Gabi.

I was born in Peru and have spent my life living between different cultures, each one shaping the way I see beauty, people, and this beautiful world.

My journey has always been inspired by beauty, cooking, and art in every form. When I was young, I had the opportunity to be part of the beauty pageant world in Peru, but my greatest achievement has nothing to do with titles—it's being the proud mom of Amalia and Bruno, who have taught me more about love, strength, and purpose than anything else ever could.

After becoming a mom, I realized something important: motherhood changes your life, but it should never mean letting go of yourself. I know how difficult that can be, especially when your children are little and you're carrying so much on your own, as I once did.

I've always believed that beauty isn't about changing who you are. It's about enhancing what already makes you unique. A skincare ritual that helps you slow down. A lipstick that makes you smile. A handbag you reach for every day because it simply feels like you.

Those little moments reminded me that taking care of myself wasn't selfish—it was part of who I am.

Then something beautiful happened.

My daughter started asking to try my lip gloss, borrow my bags, and discover those little rituals with me.

That's when I realized beauty becomes even more meaningful when it's shared.

Garbo is my way of sharing that feeling with you.

Every product you'll find here has been thoughtfully curated from around the world because I believe the little things we use every day should be as beautiful as the moments we create with them. If I wouldn't use it, gift it, or recommend it to the people I love most, it simply doesn't belong here.

I hope you discover something that makes you feel like yourself.

And maybe, one day, you'll share it with someone you love too.

See you inside.

 

Besos y abrazos,

Gabi
