The Details
Jambo! (Swahili for Hello!)
​
I am Yasmine owner and CEO of Ode To Ebony LLC. I'm so happy that you are here!
​
I am originally from Los Angeles, California and moved to Florida for college, attending the one and only Florida A&M University. It was there that I developed a passion for all things natural. It would be a few years post-graduation that I would decide to get into making whipped shea butter products as a passion project.
I seem to have always been interested in doing it "from scratch", from crafting to baking, so when my husband and I were searching for good moisturizers, this was no different. I began researching the best natural and organic products to suit the needs of melanated skin and it has been a wonderful adventure from there.
​
I started Ode To Ebony because I am passionate about our melanated people and the ingredients of the products we are putting on and into our bodies. Let’s help moisturize and protect that glow!
​
Welcome to Ode To Ebony. Did you shea today?

Lets glow together,
Yasmine

About Ode To Ebony
I frequently receive questions like, "Who is Ebony" and "What is an Ode?" So I wanted to share what Ode to Ebony means to me and why I chose this name for my business.
​
An Ode is a kind of poem, usually praising something. Expressing emotion lyrically-and it is usually addressed to someone or something. Ebony is derived from the name of the "Ebony Tree" that produces a naturally dark-colored wood, that is known to be highly prized when black.
​
When you use our products, you are immersing yourself in the luxury of only the best natural ingredients designed for skin that deserves all of the attention.
​
Ode To Ebony is a dedication to you.
