Our Story
Tony developed krio skincare because most over the counter products available were not effective for his skin. Taking inspiration from his Sierra Leone roots, he researched the efficacy of plant-based ingredients such as mango butter and marula oil, as well as shea butter, which were used to treat dry skin and prevent wrinkles from the sun.
This resulted in creating simple, plant-based products that people could read, understand and know exactly what they were putting on their skin while honoring his heritage.
