Koose dipped into a face mask 🍫
Raw Cocoa Honey is our most misused product, and we mean that as a compliment. We made it as a face and body mask.

BUT!
🍫We have seen it mixed in with koko aka porridge.
🍯 Whisked into salad dressing.
🥄 Eaten off the spoon and then, sometimes,
when remembered a little is put on the face 🍫✨

We are not going to pretend that bothers us ☺️ - It is the entire point.

If it is not safe enough to eat, it is not safe enough for your skin. That one rule is why this jar can live on your breakfast table and your bathroom shelf without a single thing changing about what is inside it. No preservative system. No fragrance. Nothing that had to be argued past a committee. Raw cocoa and raw honey 🍫

Our Raw honey is roughly eighty percent sugars, mostly fructose and glucose, and those sugars are hygroscopic, which is a technical way of saying they pull water in and hold onto it. That is the textbook definition of a humectant, and it is why a honey mask leaves skin feeling soft and plumped rather than tight. Bees also leave behind an enzyme that turns some of that glucose into gluconic acid, a gentle acid that softens the look of dull surface skin without stripping it. The raw cocoa brings catechin and epicatechin, two of the best studied plant antioxidants there are, and unlike most botanical extracts, they have actually been shown to reach the outer layer of skin when applied topically rather than simply sitting on the surface. Now read that same list as a cook. Sugar that holds moisture, a whisper of acidity, and deep unsweetened cocoa. That is a glaze. It is why it clings to a hot koose instead of sliding off, why it turns koko into something that tastes like a treat, and why a spoonful whisked with oil and lime makes a dressing people always ask about. Nothing was added to make it perform on skin. Nothing was added to make it taste good 🍫

It’s just good ol’ edible skincare

Yep- you can eat this! 🧁
These are muffins and that is our Palm Kernel Butter sitting in the tin beside them, because they went into the batter. It also goes on your skin. 🧁

“Adwe ngo” or Palm Kernel Oil has been in West African households for longer than anyone can date. We did not invent this. We just refused to strip it down, bleach it out and sell it back to you with a fragrance added 🧁

Our Ggandmothers kept a jar of it. It was rubbed into hair, worked into dry hands, warmed between palms at the end of a long day 🧁

Palm kernel butter is roughly half lauric acid, with about sixteen percent myristic acid, fifteen percent oleic and a little palmitic alongside. That combination is why it behaves the way it does. It is solid in the jar and melts the second it meets body heat, so it goes on as a butter and finishes as an oil. The saturated fats sit on the surface and slow the water leaving your skin. The oleic acid softens. It is one of the most established emollients in West Africa for a reason, and the science agrees with our grandmothers.

Now taste it - Fat that melts at body temperature, faintly nutty, lightly roasted, naturally rich. That is a baking fat, and a very good one. It creams into batter, it carries spice, it gives muffins a tenderness that most oils cannot. Nothing about it was engineered to be delicious. It is delicious because it is a food that happens to be extraordinary on skin, rather than a cosmetic pretending it could be food 🧁

お誕生日おめでとうございます,
Yukari-san 🎂🌸 Yukari Hara

Today the whole Skin Gourmet family pauses to thank God for your life.

Some people enter our lives by chance. You came to us through ご縁 (goen), a connection we believe was meant to be. You are our big sister, a sister from another mother to every one of us, and a quiet and steady light in all that we do.

You are one of the hardest workers we know, yet your heart remains soft. You move with humility, kindness, discretion and prudence, and you love people truly, with no agenda. That is rare, and we never take it for granted.

So much of what we do exists because you saw possibilities before we could. More than that, you help people discover the possibilities within themselves and around them, and you always do it with love. The seeds you have planted in our work and in our lives will keep growing for years to come.

心から感謝しています (kokoro kara kansha sh*te imasu). From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.

May God fill this new year of your life with good health, peace, joy and every good thing your heart hopes for. We love you dearly.

With love and gratitude,
The Skin Gourmet Team 🌿

Ayi, laughing at me.

I had just started singing Pimpinah thigh-slapping and all - and she found it hilarious. We don’t share a language. We shared that.

9 years of working with this community, and what I keep coming back to is that none of it goes one direction. Ayi has shaped how I understand myself as a Ghanaian. Her hands are where some of our products actually start. The trust took years, and it was built in moments like this one, not in meetings.

Her name is Ayi. I wanted you to know that.

My team surprised me for my birthday and I am still not okay. 😭

Let me just say it:
I LOVE my people. is hard. It just is. But when your team is family, when they carry the vision with you every single day, you’re never building alone. And this birthday, they showed me just how closely they’ve been paying attention.

First, wagashi. My favourite cheese on this planet. Then eggs. A LOT of eggs. Because they know I can single-handedly keep a poultry farm in business. 🥚

But the final gift? Context.

I lived in my factory for 11 years. 1 room. Me and Skin Gourmet, roommates. Until this year, when my team lovingly (and firmly 😅) kicked me out and made me get an actual home. I didn’t go far. You can’t get rid of me that easily. 😌

And since I moved, I’ve been complaining about one thing: water bottles. I hate them.

So they got me a water dispenser. And carried it to my new house ON THEIR HEADS. 🚶🏾‍♀️💨

That’s when I lost it. Because it’s not about the gift. It’s about being heard.

Best birthday ever. Being known is the real gift. 🥹

😎 ✌️ ✨

Some partnerships deserve to be celebrated out loud. 💛

We are proud to officially share that Skin Gourmet has partnered with Fair Equity, and yes, that means we have attracted investment!

Fair Equity invests in African startups and SMEs with a clear focus on creating jobs and value right here on the continent. What makes them special? The returns from their investments flow back into education, healthcare, and social projects in local communities. Capital with a conscience. That is exactly the kind of partner we prayed for.

From day 1, this relationship has felt less like a transaction and more like a shared mission. They believe what we believe: that African businesses are the key to African prosperity.

I sat down with the Fair Equity team for a podcast and shared the Skin Gourmet story, how we have evolved, how we found each other, and where we are headed. The first minute is right here. 🎧

If you have ever wondered what it really takes to TRY build a purpose-driven business from Ghana to the world, give it a listen and tell me what stood out to you. 👇🏾

Here’s to the future. 😎 ✌️ 😍
