YOU COSMETICS Turning shea butter into powerful, natural & premium skincare product

You Cosmetics is a natural skincare brand from Côte d’Ivoire that transforms local raw ingredients like shea butter, cocoa, and plant oils into high-quality, affordable beauty products. Launched in 2023, the brand generated 25 million FCFA in revenue in its first year, with no full-time staff initially. What sets us apart: rich, whipped textures, refined fragrances from Grasse, and a strong commitment to health—our formulas are free from endocrine disruptors. Today, we’re scaling up with a bigger vision: building a sustainable shea value chain by launching a transformation unit in Korhogo, working directly with women’s cooperatives. Our goal: increase local impact, industrialize production, and prepare for export.
