My Journey: From Personal Struggles to Industry Leadership

My love for beauty started early: I’ve been experimenting with makeup since I was 16. But my skincare journey truly began when I struggled with skin bleaching and found no real solutions around me. In 2018, I made a life-changing decision: I stopped bleaching my skin and committed to rediscovering beauty in its purest, most authentic form.

Determined to understand skincare on a deeper level, I immersed myself in extensive research and enrolled in cosmetic formulation courses, both locally and internationally. Equipped with the right knowledge and scientific education, I was ready to make a real difference.

Turning Knowledge into Innovation

In 2019, I gave birth to my beautiful daughter, Soibi. After childbirth, I battled severe hyperpigmentation, and it became a deeply personal challenge. However, my education in cosmetic formulation empowered me to develop products that healed my skin. That experience fueled my passion even more, I knew I wanted to help others achieve real, lasting skin transformations.

Legacy of Learning & Excellence

I believe in continuous education and mastery, which is why I’ve pursued advanced certifications from world-renowned institutions, including:

✔ Cosmetic Science & Cosmetic Chemistry

✔ Advanced Aesthetic Treatments (Medical Grade Facial, Microneedling, Skin Peeling, Electrocautery, etc.)

✔ CIDESCO & ITEC Certifications – the gold standard in aesthetics & skincare

✔ Certified Acne Specialist (USA) – Advanced acne management & treatment

✔ Semi-Permanent Makeup Certification (Dubai) – Microblading, Lash Extensions, Brow & Lash Tinting
