People are all different—varying nationalities, ethnicities, values, needs and one of the most common and obvious difference would be our skin color. There is a wide spectrum of skin tones that all are beautiful in their own way, but let us all face it, most cosmetics brand only cater to white or lighter skin tones. Although there are already cosmetic shades or colors made for darker skinned people, there is still a lot of more to improve on in making beauty products which are specifically crafted for darker skinned people at the onset. This is one apparent gap in the beauty industry that SAHI Cosmetics filled.
Own your color
Sahi Cosmetics was founded by Shelly Sahi in December 2015 in Detroit, Michigan, USA. Shelly is a certified brown girl, as she calls herself, considering that her parents are from Bangladesh. Shelly having a different skin color has found it difficult in finding make up shades that work really well with her “medium” skin tone. It was that dilemma that brought her the idea to provide women with the right undertones for their skin, as well as other products to complement diverse skin complexions of people of color. Hence, the birth of SAHI Cosmetics.
SAHI Cosmeticsis the first cosmetics brand solely committed to ethnic skin tones. The company prides itself with its work with people of color—from the onset of formulating its cosmetics in its product research and development stage, to product testing itself. The company’s tagline “Own Your Color” could never be more perfect. It empowers people of every color and background to be confident and proud of their ethnicities. As a bonus, any of the manufacturing process of the brand does not include any animal testing, making the company certified cruelty-free too.
Presently, SAHI Cosmetics has a full line of beauty products to enhance the eyes, face and lips namely: concealer, foundation, eyeshadow, blush, mascara, lipstick and many more.
