Meet Our Founder

Oki, 

Welcome to Sweetgrass Skin Co.

This company was born out of a personal need for natural and sustainable skincare products. 

As someone who is allergic to coconut. I found that it is extremely difficult to find natural skincare that worked for me but didn't contain harmful ingredients. 

In my pursuit of a solution I looked towards my cultural traditions for an answer. It was there that I found an ingredient that changed my life for the better. 

At Sweetgrass Skin Company we are proud to use locally sourced animal fats as the base ingredient in our skincare line. Animal fats are rich in vitamins and minerals that are essential for healthy skin and have been used for centuries in all Indigenous cultures and ways of life. 

We also infuse our products with carefully selected Indigenous plants from the Siksikaitsitapi (Blackfoot People) landscape. These plants are sourced with care and often wild picked. We ensure that they are of the highest quality, and harvested in an honorable way. 

Our company is more than a skincare line. It is a revival of cultural celebration for the connection of all people to the land that sustains us.
