Kanti is a black-owned indie skincare brand founded by Alisha Ricki and Keamone F. The brand is focused on responding to the needs of black and brown skin tones, rather than just considering them as an afterthought. The brand recently launched its first product, the Likuid Gold Luxury Glo Oil.
Made using a unique blend of baobab oil and 24k gold, the Likuid Gold Luxury Glo Oil is designed to brighten your complexion while providing intense moisture and creating a more even complexion through continued use. The oil will protect your skin from enviornmental stressors while fighting inflammation. In addition, the new product is lightweight and nongreasy with a non-comedogenic formulation that won't clog pores or cause breakouts.
