Our basic beliefs
Simply Rooted
We believe in nurturing both skin and soul the way God intended. Our philosophy is rooted in the harmony of nature and culture, where each product we create is a tribute to the rich body care traditions of the Ivory Coast.
Our philosophy is not just about skincare; it's about a lifestyle that values sustainability, wellness, and the rich tapestry of our cultural heritage and appreciating the world God created.
A Planted Seed
In the vibrant heart of Abidjan, a seed was planted within us—a seed nurtured by the rich diversity of cultures and the pulsing beat of authenticity. Though Atlanta's spirit would shape her resilience, it was Babi’s mosaic of stories that sparked an idea, one that would simmer and evolve, grounded in the desire to redefine beauty.
The journey towards Gold Ivory’s inception was paved with challenges. In 2019, faced with personal battles against eczema and the aftermath of a skincare endeavor that didn’t take flight, our founder Beha’s resolve only strengthened. In 2022, from the trials of personal skin challenges and industry standards that seemed to favor lighter shades, Gold Ivory took root, not just as a brand but as a movement to celebrate the natural beauty of every hue. This wasn’t just the launch of a brand, but the revival of a vision—a vision that melds the vibrant heritage of the Ivory Coast with the innovation of modern skincare
Gold Ivory's vision is a tapestry of purity, efficacy, and a profound respect for our planet, woven from threads of plant-based wellness and ethical sourcing. Each product is a testament to cultural richness, a craft perfected by the hands of those who believe in the integrity of skincare and the power of heritage. We draw from the well of traditional wisdom, ensuring that our practices benefit both our cherished customers and the dedicated hands in our source communities.
