Our Story
As the founder of Ekhambee pronounced (Ee-kham-bee), I started like most businesses producing my products in my home to solve the basic skincare needs of me and my family.
I'd slather on tinted lotions and makeup since I was embarrassed with my skin appearance and not happy that I looked tired all the time. One day one my daughter grabbed my hand and said what is that smell? She said, “Your hands stink!” I realized the smell was from the tinted lotion I used daily. My daughter caught a whiff of a not-so-pleasant smell. Turns out, my trusty lotion was full of toxic ingredients linked to cancer! Yikes! I become concerned about the smell and looked up safety of the lotion’s ingredients. That's when I decided to use my problem solving skill as an engineer and put my skills to work by creating my own all-natural skincare. The results were too excellent not to go larger and share with more women.
Skin issues can be a bummer, especially when skin problems like white dots on face, neck discoloration, and dry dark patches on skin, and clogged armpit pores make an unwelcome appearance.
My goal is to help black women and women of color feel confident in their skin without worrying about harmful chemicals.
The non-toxic products are packed with nourishing ingredients that hydrate, illuminate, and prevent dark spots. No sulphates, parabens, or other yucky chemicals allowed! Plus, we're cruelty-free and gentle on the environment.
Say goodbye to harsh and abrasive exfoliants and hello to a radiant complexion with Ekhambee's wholesome products. Trust us, your skin and body will thank you.
Ekhambee is also cruelty-free and gentle on the environment.
Ekhambee was birthed out of my desire to create an alternative to harmful chemicals involved in making today’s skincare products. Therefore, As a Black-owned skincare brand, I and dedicated to ensuring that we make all natural and non-toxic products.

Let customers speak for us
I was skeptical about the scents but let me tell YOU! They did NOT disappoint. I love them all. I’ve enjoyed all of the products I’ve tried. Ekhambee will always be one of my go to when it comes to natural skin products.
If you are looking for safety knowing your face is experiencing pure, non-toxic ingredients that are actually effective. Look no further.
The Creamy Body Butter Bundle was even more than I expected. The box that it is in is perfect and fits well with any decor if you want to keep it in the box. The texture is light and creamy but not oily. The scents are perfect and actually smell like aloe, lavender and mandarin. I will definitely purchase this again.
The Sensitive Skin Moisturizer has made such a difference to my skin. My skin looks brighter and more youthful. My skin is so much more supple. The moisturizer lasts all day and my skin looks great from morning until the evening. I would recommend it to anyone and everyone.
Your moisturizer is perfectly light. After putting your gel toner on all areas of my face, I add the moisturizer on just the most dry areas: cheeks & around my eyes. Happy face!
I think this is a really great product. I love that its vegan especially for people who are looking for vegan skincare products. The tangerine scent is my favorite.
I have very sensitive skin and can't use a lot of things on my face. However, I have been washing my face with cleanser for 3 weeks and have had no problems at all. I definitely recommend it!
This mask is easy to apply, cruelty free, all natural.
It didn't irritate my skin at all and I love that as it dried, it didn't make my face feel stiff like some other clay masks I've tried.
It felt so nice on my skin, like soothing!
After wearing the mask, it easily washed off with my hands and plain water.
My face looked and felt refreshed and soft!
Although this mask was gifted to me, all of these opinions are my own, and I'll definitely buy this mask!
I recently tried the Mud Mask - Apple Cider Vinegar – Grapefruit Scent from Ekhambee, and I couldn’t be happier! The mask leaves my skin feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. The apple cider vinegar and grapefruit scent is invigorating and pleasant. After just a few uses, I’ve noticed a significant improvement in my skin’s texture and clarity. This is definitely a 5-star product, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quality mud mask. Thank you, Ekhambee, for delivering such an excellent skincare product!

I love this gentle face cleanser, which has a wonderful scent & rinses off easily.
The toner gel is just the perfect, super-light moisturizer to put on after a face wash, & the cucumber scent is great — it always makes me smile!
Once I started using this product then tried others, . The experience and results just were not the same. Ekhambee stole my skin’s heart. Nothing could take it place, no other products felt as good. I now realize it was quality at first experience. A quality that was not replaceable after trying many. My skin is here to stay. Too beautiful skin Ekhambee will never part ❤️
Sensitive Skin Moisturizer - Unscented
I’ve known this product ho be excellent in my face, but what I found out was how excellent it is for between and under my breasts!! A small amount dropped there by accident so I used it there. It cleared up a problem area I’ve had for years!!
