Our Ingredients

Simple plants. Honest formulas.

We choose a short list of nourishing ingredients and let them do the work. Nothing is added for theatre.

THAAYU body butter jar and WENDO lip balm tin with mango, shea, and leaves

Shea butter

Rich and creamy. Softens dry skin and helps hold moisture through the day. At the heart of THAAYU body butter and WENDO lip balm.

Baobab oil

Light, restoring oil from the baobab tree. Used in THAAYU to soften, restore, and protect.

Mango butter

A close companion to shea — velvety on the skin, with a quiet richness that suits everyday body care.

Marula oil

Used in WENDO to nourish lips without heaviness. A familiar oil in Southern and East African skin rituals.

Beeswax

Gives WENDO its protective seal. Helps the balm stay put and shield lips from dry air.

We keep claims modest: natural ingredients, made with care, handcrafted in Kenya. Full INCI lists will sit on each product as we prepare jars for sale.
