WHO'S BEHIND KNIGHT & DEIA?
I am the owner of KNIGHT & DEIA.
My name is Sophia, and I decided that it was time to take a leap of faith and create a product that could help people's skin, and indirectly improve their mental health.
Beyond simply creating a high quality skin care product, I wanted to create a brand that could help others improve their lives in ways beyond skincare and hopes to do so through tutorials online.
THE STORY BEHIND THE NAME:
In the wonderful way that ideas happen, KNIGHT & DEIA was a compilation of ideas from experiences shared with loved ones.
This story comes in three parts.
the dream
THE BEGINNING
THE MOON has had a large influence on my life - not because of anything extremely religious, but because that's where my middle name originated. Shortly before realizing she was pregnant with me, my mom had a dream that I was royalty on the moon. Royalty that was difficult to handle, but royalty nonetheless. She and her family accidentally wandered into my domain, and ended up having to stay.
When she woke up and shared this dream with Grandma, a Cambodian name meaning "Perfect Moon" was created and given to... drum roll... you guessed it... not me!
Since mom didn't know she was pregnant, she didn't have a baby to name that and the name went to someone else. Shortly after, she realized she was pregnant and I was given a Cambodian name meaning "Perfect Magic" but have continued to be told this story as I grew up.

THE MIDDLE
Once upon a time, I explored the wonderful magical video game world of Maplestory. During my time there, I wasn't particularly good at the game but I LOVED playing it. One day, while to complete a mini-dungeon that was part of a quest, I had died so much that I had seen one guy lap me in progress several times, he finally stopped and offered me some mana potions... then offered me with help on the quest.
This was the beginning of a beautiful friendship. We ended up becoming best friends, sharing our trials together and even exploring random new MMORPGs together. He has since been referred to as my Knight. We offer each other support when we can.
the BALANCE
THE END
During a study abroad program in China, I met a girl that taught me the balanced kind of friendship that I now look for. We looked out for each other in new environments, and often had late night conversations. One of these conversations was discussing one of her favorite shows, the anime Naruto, and how one particular aspect of that show defined her favorite relationships. The concept of having a friendship represented by the sun and moon, two complementary opposites, was inspiring to us. This is where DEIA comes from.
Each of these ideas are the foundation of KNIGHT & DEIA. LOVE, BALANCE, and SUPPORT.
