FOUNDER & CREATOR of Kosi Skincare
The founder of Kosi Skincare is Ms. Akosua and goes by the name Ms. Kosi to which her brand is named after. As a woman born and raised in Ghana, West Africa, Ms. Kosi is remarkably familiar with the usage of Shea butter because the use of this butter on her skin, started from birth, and is an age-old ancient tradition that has been passed down from generation to generation in her family. Most African beauty rituals are always passed down from mother to daughter, for centuries. In her culture, apart from using it for cooking, as soon as a baby is born, both the mother and baby’s skin and hair are nourished with nothing raw Shea Butter, Cocoa Butter and other plant based oils with healing properties. The hot weather of her African region made it necessary to use Shea Butter to moisturize and protect skin from the harsh UV rays of the sun, while tightening and strengthening the skin, to prevent wrinkles and other signs of aging.
In her late teens moving with her family, from Ghana to London England meant she was yet again faced with another harsh weather, which consisted of cold winter winds which caused dryness to her skin, and again Shea Butter became the most necessary and go to moisturizer for her whole family to use.
Since shea is a plant based butter, the natural scent is nutty, and it ranges from mild to a wild earthy scent which can be a bit pungent, so as a little girl growing up although Ms Kosi used it because it was the only option available to use at home, she confesses to never really loving the scent at all. After college, she later started experimenting on plant-extracted all-natural therapeutic grade aromatherapy essential oils and learning all the benefits it provided. She decided to start blending these oils with shea butter. During festive holidays she gifted her newly formulated scented shea butter to her family and friends who loved it and requested for more. This is when the idea of Kosi Skin was born.
Ms. Kosi had a firm devotion to create an all-Natural & Zero Toxin Luxury skincare brand, with great benefits for all her customers, that would also blend seamlessly with true nature of the vast indigenous botanical life of Africa. Today, the nourishing, soothing, regenerative, and healing properties of the brand, coupled with the traditional remedies of Africa, (where the ingredients are sustainably & ethically sourced) creates jobs and empower the lives for the women Shea cooperatives, who harvest the plants seeds for the precious oils and butters.
All Kosi Skin products are 100% natural and organic, with zero chemicals, zero water, zero preservatives and formulated by hand in small batches in their Duluth, GA studio/atelier, employing practices that are friendly to the environment and all its creatures.
