MEET OUR FOUNDER

Yvette Nkwenti founded Kwengha Beauty & Wellness during her pursuit for solutions to her own skin and health problems. Yvette is a Mom, a Registered Nurse, Beauty Therapist, a Preacher, and an Organic Skin/Hair Care Formulator.

For several years, Yvette suffered from constant breakouts that left her skin covered in dark acne spots and uneven skin tone caused by her excessively oily skin and the dry Canadian winter seasons. She spent so much money on synthetic skin care products hoping to find the magical product. 

She hated the way her skin looked and that affected her self esteem and self confidence. She constantly wore make-up foundation every time she left her house as a temporal outward confidence booster. Her biggest beauty dream was to one day be able to go out of her house without wearing make-up foundation.

After several failed attempts to find the “magical product” that would get ride of her skin care problems, she turned to mother nature for solutions. She started researching natural skin care active ingredients. She was fascinated with the results of her research and started doing DIY skin care products. After several attempts and trials, she started noticing that not only did her skin started looking better, her body started feeling better too. That is when she realized that what a person puts on his/her skin also affects his/her over all health. So she also got rid of her harmful chemical household products and started doing DIY household products for her family.

She did not want to stop at being a skin care DIYer. So she invested in education to become an organic skin care formulator. She completed her Diploma in organic skin care formulation and is currently working on her Advanced Diploma in Cosmetic Science. She is also enrolled in other skin and hair care formulation courses.

Yvette has since experienced a significant improvement in her health and skin since she started formulating and using natural skin care products. She has regained confidence in her natural beauty and has been able to achieve her dream of going out without wearing make-up foundation. She has also received very positive feedbacks from friends and family members who have used her products. Before she launched Kwengha Beauty & Wellness, she was already receiving requests from people who have tried her products to make her products available for them to purchase.

Yvette is very passionate about beauty and health in general and enjoys formulating skin and hair care products that would solve our customers’ unique beauty problems. She wants all our customers to achieve the same results she did without the use of synthetic harmful chemicals.

Yvette is open to one on one consultation with customers who have unique skin care needs.

OUR CORE VALUES

QUALITY

We believe that high quality/high performance skin care, hair care and wellness can be achieved using botanical ingredients. That is why we only source high quality botanical ingredients which are as close to their original state as possible. We thoroughly research our ingredients, develop and experiment with multiple formulations until we find the formulation that meets and delivers the desired outcome for the specific product. We also complete multiple trials of the final formulation, as well as microbial testing in a cosmetic testing certified laboratory for all our products that contain water to ensure that they are safe before we sell them to our customers.

Quality to us also means that our products are delivering the results that our customers expect.

INTERGRITY

We are completely transparent with what is in our products and what they can do for your skin, hair and over all health. The only surprises that we want our customers to experience is that our products performed beyond their expectations.

We do not make any medical claims on our products. However, we do our best to provide a summary of the skin benefits of the key ingredients in our products. We also provide the complete ingredient list of all our products so that our customers can do their own research before making the decision to purchase our products.

CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

Our customers are the core of our brand. As much as we enjoy researching and creating high quality products, it is impossible for our brand to last if we don’t have customers who love and use our products. That is why customer satisfaction is extremely important to us and we try our very best to listen to our customers and provide high quality service to them.

OUR BEAUTY & WELLNESS PRODUCTS

All our skin care, hair care, and wellness products are professionally crafted using organic/natural and naturally derived ingredients ranging from bar soaps, body lotions, face cream, face serums, toners, face mask, body wash, shampoos and conditioners, and more. 

Our products are cruelty free. That means we test our products on our own skin. Most of our products are vegan friendly except for our balms which may contain beeswax. We strife to use certified organic ingredients as much as possible in order to provide our customers with the best, safe and effective products. Our goal is to provide our customers with natural, sustainable and high performance beauty and wellness products.

OUR WIGS & HAIR EXTENSIONS

  • We only obtain raw virgin Remy hair directly cut from pony tails so all of the cuticles are facing the same direction.  (This way the hair won’t turn into a rat’s nest after you wash it… if you have bought low quality hair before then you know what I mean YIKES!)
  • We seal all hair wefts with glue, so when you are running a brush through your hair it does not leave the floor looking like someone just shaved your head… and it keeps the wefts thin to make the hair easier to weave and lay flat. (Your stylist will thank you)
  • We remove any nits by hand and only use organic apple cider vinegar and organic shampoos to sanitize our hair.  We do not use insecticides or harsh detergents, that stuff just damages the hair and makes your head itch like crazy!  No head patting necessary… we keep it itch-free around here.
  • We don’t use any chemicals, perms, or hot curling irons on our hair to further prevent any damage or that crazy smell you get from those!  No stinky hair here folks!
  • All of those extra measures we do make our hair durable, shiny, and hair that will last!

 

We ship all over the United States, Canada and Europe

Thank you for trusting us with your beauty and wellness needs. We greatly appreciate you!
