The two founders Joycelyn and Rachael met at university and bonded over frustrations with high street afro hair-care that was full of irritating chemicals. When they couldn’t find any products to suit their needs, they decided to create their own.

The Glowcery is here to give your skin its five a day. It focuses on superfood skincare products that are hand-blended from cold-pressed vegetable, fruit, and nut oils.
