PRESS RELEASE

“The first of its kind in Africa”.

The Semsey Skin Solutions brand newly opened a Skincare Experience Centre with a 3-day exclusive invite-only closed door launch with the traditional and digital press personnel, beauty brands influencers, luxury shoppers, content creators and bloggers in the heart of Lagos.

For the three days, each guest had an immersive tour of the experience centre with the Founder highlighting the importance of creating afro-centric skincare products made from raw materials safely sourced and quality processed within the African continent.  She highlighted the vision of the brand to become the preferred natural skincare of the African woman in genuinely solving her common skin issues.

In all, this Experience Centre is the first of its kind on the African continent and it houses the Skin Kitchen (where you can make personalized products), raw materials and finished products sampling room, natural skincare products made through a “farm-to-skin” approach that delivers fun and exciting products for bath times solving common skin problems.

She elaborated the problems the African woman faces battling with skincare issues and choosing the right skincare products for her skin.  Using herself as a valid proof, she suffered Post-partum hormonal acne and this sole reason prompted her inquisitiveness into bringing a lasting solution to skin issues for the African woman.

One of the solutions to the numerous problems the African woman faces is creating the Experience Centre, where people would not only shop for skincare products but also formulate cosmetics products for themselves under the supervision of skin experts, a good space to host skin parties, skin-themed bridal showers and host other recreational skin activities.

One of the guests, Bettyana, a content creator and media personality, pointed out her fears in losing her skin tone because of the influx of so many products in the market and Tunbosun , the head of the Semsey Brand explained that this is one of the reasons the Experience centre was created; to make people feel safe using natural skincare products and to give expert advice to people who want to try out products.
