There is a growing interest by consumers in natural skincare products that are both kind to the skin and the environment. In Mozambique, one woman-owned company is launching a new, expanded range of quality products to meet that need. Cátia Mondlane is the CEO & Founder of Isabella-Estética & Cosméticos, an innovative Mozambican company which brings natural skin solutions based on locally sourced organic and fresh ingredients.
Isabella-Estética & Cosméticos is a young Mozambican company that produces natural soaps, oils and lotions based on fresh and organic ingredients, including coconut oil, cucumber, moringa, oats, orange and honey, making products unique and nutritious for good skin health at competitive prices. All the products are delicately prepared taking into account the well-being, balance and health of customers, respecting nature and conscious beauty in the formulation of cosmetics that do not contain parabens, alcohols, perfumes, formaldehyde and artificial colours.
Speaking about the inspiration for creating her natural skincare brand, Cátia says: “I have always had skin problems and finding a solution that suits my skin to the point of creating a skincare routine had been a challenge for years. After several attempts, I finally found a natural solution that gave birth to the company I created.”
Besides making products for healthy skin, Isabella-Estética & Cosméticos builds a close relationship with clients because the brand believes it isn’t just about selling and profit, but also about customers' well-being. Future aspirations for the business include the opening of a natural facial spa, and ultimately making Isabella an international brand.
Speaking about what gives her the most satisfaction about her business, brand and the new range of products, Cátia says: “The emotional feeling of mission accomplishment and the positive clients’ feedback I receive daily is what makes it worthwhile.”
