BOTANICA BAZAAR PODCAST

Today we are discussing all things skincare and Shea Butter. Karite is the french word for Shea Butter and MyKarite is an eco-luxury skin care brand based on the potent ingredient. MyKarite is the brainchild of 3 sisters and today we have the pleasure of hearing from Naana Boakye, the eldest of the 3 sisters. A dermatologist with a thriving practice, Naana is the CEO of MyKarite.

Today I am thrilled to share an in-depth interview with one of my formulator/businesswoman crushes, April Gargulio. Founder of the coveted brand VINTNER’S DAUGHTER, her Active Botanical Serum has a cult like following and it looks like her 2nd product, Active Botanical Essence is on the same track. April has shown us what we fundamentally know to be true, that if you have a vision and as she says a NORTH STAR to follow; you ultimately have the patience and the conviction it takes to make your vision a reality.
