Motherland began with one belief. Nature has already given us what we need to care for our skin and hair. It started in West Africa, our Motherland, with raw, unrefined butters like shea and cocoa. Ingredients trusted for generations to nourish, protect and restore.
As we grew, so did the idea. We began journeying into other people's Motherlands too, sourcing the best of what the earth gives. Shea from West Africa. Argan from Morocco. Rosehip from the wild rosa canina of Europe. Each one chosen for what it does, not what it costs.
We believe in real skincare. No fillers, no harsh additives. Just earth-grown care that works. Skincare that honours where it comes from, and who it's for.
How we source
Most skincare ingredients pass through a chain of middlemen before they reach you. Bought, blended, marked up, stripped of the story.
We go to the origin instead. We work close to the people who grow and prepare each ingredient, and we keep them raw and unrefined, the way they have been made for generations. Nothing stripped out, nothing added in.
That is why what is in the jar is exactly what the label says. And why our shea feels different from the bleached, deodorised version most brands sell.
For makers and businesses
We also supply raw ingredients in bulk, from 1kg to 25kg, to formulators, skincare businesses and independent makers. The same shea, cocoa and oils we use ourselves, sourced the same way.
