made by africa.

background to the campaign. 

founded by amanda du-pont and created by a community on social media alongside expert formulators, our first campaign is a thank you letter to everyone that supported us on our journey to create this skincare range, as well as a celebration of what makes us, as africans, truly unique. 

celebrating local, thinking global.

the entire range is produced in south africa, and uses 95% natural ingredients, focusing on those that are native to us, like aloe, shea, marula, and rooibos, to name a few.

we have combined our beloved local ingredients with powerful plant-identical actives garnering international acclaim like niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, and vitamin c, to produce a unique range that's the best of both worlds.

meet the range

community-built, from the start.

our journey began in 2020, when we started building our community on social media.

over a few months we quickly realised the need for skincare that breaks the mould in a lot of ways – and is clean, simple, effective and affordable.

since then, we have worked hard to to develop the entire range with our community, so it reflects exactly what they want.
