Introducing a new line of multicultural skincare with benefits for anyone and everyone. NyakioTM is a collection of skincare products formulated with luxurious ingredients from and indigenous to Africa. Created by Nyakio Kamoche Grieco, who is also the brand's namesake, Nyakio brings the timeless beauty traditions of Africa to women everywhere.
"I'm a first-generation American of Kenyan descent, and I'm a huge fan of beauty since I was a very little girl," Grieco said. "And so, I decided to create the Nyakio brand to bring the beauty and sophistication of Africa to women here of all skin types, all races, and the journey has been pretty amazing!"
From South Africa to Morocco, Africa is rich with natural ingredients that leave the skin more youthful-looking through protection and hydration. Greico's line of products include the Kenyan Coffee Collection and Hydrating Kola Nut Collection. Products range in price from $34-$55.
The Kenyan Coffee Body Scrub blends naturally energizing and exfoliating Kenyan Coffee with Sugar to remove dull skin while providing antioxidant benefits. With mongongo nut oil, shea butter, jojoba oil, grape seed oil and avocado oil, this unique fusion leaves skin moisturized, smooth and soft.
The Kenyan Coffee Face Polish blends naturally, energizing and exfoliating Kenyan Coffee with Jojoba. "I joke that I come out of the shower ten years younger, because I come out and it really not only wakes up your skin, but it almost evens your tone, as well," Greco remarked. This face polish gently removes dull skin while providing antioxidant benefits.
The Hydrating Face Oil with Kola Nut is a light, non-greasy fusion of African Kola Nut, Ximenia Oil, Chamomile Oil and Trichilia Oil that invigorates and hydrates for up to 12 hours. "This oil, your skin just drinks it right up it's very light, just a couple of drops go a long way," said Gerico. "Not only do you experience an even toning through using the oil, you are able to really see that radiance. It also helps to fill in fine lines and wrinkles."
