About
Sabine Henderson Founder
As a license Master Cosmetologist and Celebrity Image Stylist, with over 20 years of expertise in the beauty industry, I take pride in creating a luxury, effective, yet affordable skincare line that address the most common skin concerns: anti-aging, blemishes, dullness, and dry skin. As a Haitian child, born in Boston that relocated to Atlanta at a young age, I faced a lot of unfair stereotypes and battled with insecurities. I had to find my own identity in a world of beauty that was not fashioned after the woman with melanated skin at that time. I enjoyed self-care, pampering myself, and helping other people around me look and feel beautiful.
I was asked by my husband, at 21 years old, what I wanted to do as a career. I told him I wanted to be a hairstylist. I enjoyed the company of other individuals, working for myself, and anything that made me look pretty! So, I guess you can say cosmetology found me. I enjoy helping people feel comfortable, while reminding them that "your beautiful in the skin you're in". To me, that’s what’s important.
Birth of SJ
After I relocated from Atlanta to Los Angeles, it became more and more difficult for me to find a product that would hydrate my skin without leaving a greasy after feel. I developed melasma and sunspots from the hot, but beautiful LA sun. After the birth of my second daughter, my melasma got worse, what can also be referred to as the pregnancy mask. Out of shear desperation to find a skincare product that would address the issues I was facing in my skin, I felt compelled to create a skincare line. Not only for myself, but also for individuals with diverse melanated skin tones like me.
Real Ingredients, Real Results
The key to effective skincare, that works, is a delicate blend of nature and cutting-edge science. My products feature Shea Butter from Ghana, the “women’s gold” of West Africa! Queen Cleopatra always kept a jar of unrefined shea butter for cosmetic purposes.
The Queen’s beauty secret still holds true even in our modern skincare today. As a West Indian woman with melanated skin, I know how nature has great benefits for the skin. And with the help of science and nature together, our melanted skin can really glow.
