Avalah is a premiere Black-owned business started by a visonary who wanted access to more healthful products. The founder, Alexzandra Denis, wanted to transform the industry. Denis realized beauty products are full of unhealthy and unnatural materials. She grew up in Brooklyn of Caribbean descent. Her mother always made sure Denis and her sister used natural products on their bodies and in their hair. According to Denis, Avalah has nothing she would not use herself. The company uses similar ingredients to some other black-owned skincare brands such as shea butter, coconut oil, and essential oils. But the brand also adds a unique twist with Himalayan sea salt. The main focus of Avalah is to provide customers a spa-like experience. The brand also wants to give the peace of mind of knowing the natural materials come from the Earth.

How Bariki Got Started... Bariki Body Care started in 2007 in my tiny little kitchen in Seattle, WA. My oldest daughter, son & I have eczema and wanted to create products that were natural/organic/paraben free/sulfate free and was safe to use on our skin. I started researching a lot of different ingredients and the main one I use in all of our products is Shea Butter. Shea Butter is nourishing and is a good moisturizer all skin types whether you have oily or dry skin. All Bariki Body Care products are made with you in mind, cruelty free & vegan friendly. We hope to offer something that your skin can use. My mission is to get people to love the skin they're in with out the harsh chemicals from anywhere from eczema to dry skin.
