Good morning, beautiful! Today we will be sharing five Nigerian skincare brands that you have to try out. We realise that getting your hands on your favourite skincare products might be hard, given the recent events plaguing the country.
Over the past month, Nigeria has gained a lot of notoriety online. A US official recently came out to condemn Nigerians for the cyber crimes hundreds of Nigerian men committed.
In addition to that, there have been rumours of the government pushing back on importation, particularly products ordered online. Apparently, a 5% charge will be added to all online purchases.
Unfortunately, while women are not responsible for the problems facing this country, the consequences of the actions of a few selfish men find their way to trickle down to us in one way or another. If you would like to keep your coins and your glow, here are five made-in-Nigeria skincare brands to help you do that.
1. Arami Essentials
Arami Essentials is a company that produces handcrafted products in small batches using natural ingredients from Africa. These ingredients, renowned for their effectiveness, have been tried and tested over time by generations of women. Shop Arami Essentials here.
2. R&R Luxury
Founded by Beauty Entrepreneur Valerie Obaze in 2010, just after the birth of her daughter Rebecca Rose from whom the brand takes its name, R&R has since garnered international recognition in the world of luxury beauty and has won several awards for the excellence of its range of beauty products.
