Is African skincare the beauty industry's best Kept Secret?#Beautyofafricanskin

Did Africa shape the future of skincare long before the modern beauty industry existed? Long before luxury beauty brands, African communities had developed sophisticated skincare knowledge using botanicals, oils, clays, and natural compounds rooted in their local environments. In this episode, we explore the untold story of African skincare and ask a bigger question: If many of the world's most celebrated skincare ingredients come from Africa, why does the continent capture only a small share of the global beauty market? Joining us is Thayu Skincare, a Kenyan brand redefining African beauty through science, heritage, and innovation. Together, we explore what it will take for African skincare to move from supplying ingredients to building globally recognized brands.
