Kréyol Essence
is an organic and authentic beauty product line for hair, skin and body from
Haiti. Kreyol Essence is dedicated to introducing premium Haitian goods to the
US market and offers an extensive array of wellness-based beauty, body, and
health care commodities.
Kréyol Essence
was launched after Momperousse’s hair was badly
damaged from extreme heat from a visit to the beauty, so she started to nurture
her hair with Haitian Black Castor Oil,
as that was what her mom would use when she was younger. The castor oil
contains the power ingredient “Palma Christi”.
Palma Christi: Haitian Black Castor Oil
is an organic and unrefined castor oil hand-harvested and produced in Haiti’s
rich agricultural environment. The active elements contained in Palma Christi:
Haitian Black Castor Oil™ benefit the hair, skin and body to offer a cornucopia
of beneficial botanicals: Omega-9 fatty acid moisturizes, vitamin E is a
naturally rich emollient, ricinoleic acid acts as an anti-fungicidal and
anti-bacterial. In fact, Palma Christi: Haitian Black Castor Oil™ is the only
oil made up of 90% fatty acids that are derived from ricinoleic acid. These
elements allows oil to deliver therapeutic properties that grows and thickens
hair, repairs skin cells and has a plethora of medicinal attributes.
Inspired by the crystallization of the first black republic, Kreyol Essence’s goal is to liberate the community from costly and unsafe products that have given us false promises and broken dreams of beauty and health. Birthed from the fruitful soils of Haiti, also known as the "Pearls of theAntilles", Kreyol Essence’s exotic and natural products are supported by trust worthy ingredients coupled with un-paramount customer service.
