ZOEVA – Meet the founder and her sister
Our founder Zoe Boikou and her sister Barbara have been beauty lovers from the very beginning. Their journey began in 2008 when Zoe realized that there were no adequate, high-quality brushes on the market at an affordable price. She began selling her own brushes on eBay from home, which soon became more successful than she ever anticipated. This ultimately led to the development of the internationally operating company ZOEVA.
However, ZOEVA's true heritage lies several years earlier. The foundation for the sisters’ successful business venture stemmed from their childhood: Both sisters looked up to their mother who suffered and fought domestic violence. They still carry her strength and love with them today.
"I can still clearly remember a moment when I was seven years old. Despite the tears in her eyes, my mother had a determined look on her face. She took her makeup from the dressing table and with each brush stroke her posture became more upright.
Who is ZOEVA?
We believe in you – believe in yourself too
At ZOEVA, love is at the heart of everything we do. We are convinced that makeup is much more than just a beauty product. It is an expression of individuality, strength, and above all, self-love.
We express this love by creating meaningful connections with our sisterhood community, allowing each individual to grow and evolve. We want to build a sisterhood where we inspire each other and embrace each other’s uniqueness. As part of our ZOEVA sisterhood, we want to pass this love on to you because when one of us shines, our sisterhood shines brighter!
We believe that, through our products, our organization can ensure that everyone around the world experiences and shares this love. We celebrate individual beauty and stand for diversity. For us, love can be expressed in endless ways. Helping everyone discover and show their individual beauty with dignity and integrity is part of our mission to evolve into our best selves together.
As a result of Zoe’s moving story, ZOEVA was born. Our vision “Wear the love” builds on these emotions and gives our brand a powerful foundation for the future. You are a unique part of ZOEVA and together we carry the love – we wear the love.
WE ARE ZOEVA.
SHARE THE LOVE. WEAR THE LOVE.
»Zoe, no matter what – we have each other. And love.«

With those words, she applied blush on me for the first time. That was the moment I understood: Makeup is so much more than beauty. It's power. It's an expression of dignity and a sign of love."
