At Forneta, we believe that everyone deserves access to high-quality, natural, and affordable skincare. Our brand is deeply rooted in Western African heritage, drawing inspiration from the rich traditions and wisdom passed down through generations. This journey began with a daughter's dedication to her West African mother, whose nurturing spirit and ancestral knowledge laid the foundation for our brand.

Growing up in the lush, bountiful landscapes of Western Africa, our founder witnessed firsthand the power of natural ingredients. She observed as her grandmother and mother created effective, nourishing skincare products using traditional recipes, sparking a passion that would later blossom into Forneta.

Inspired by this rich heritage, we embarked on a journey to bring the wisdom of our ancestors to the modern world. We carefully studied the properties of various plants, oils, and minerals, learning how they could be harnessed to create truly transformative skincare products.

One of our core values is transparency. We believe that everyone has the right to know exactly what they're putting on their skin. That's why every Forneta product features a full list of ingredients, along with a detailed explanation of each component's purpose and benefits. We are committed to using only the highest quality, naturally-derived ingredients, and we never use harmful chemicals or fillers.

As a brand created by and for people of color, we understand the unique challenges that come with caring for melanin-rich skin. We've made it our mission to develop products that cater to the specific needs of skin of color, addressing concerns such as hyperpigmentation, uneven skin tone, and moisture retention. Our products are carefully formulated to nourish, protect, and celebrate the beauty of all skin tones.

At Forneta, we believe that luxury skincare shouldn't come with a luxury price tag. We strive to make our products accessible to everyone, regardless of their budget. By partnering with sustainable, ethical suppliers and streamlining our production processes, we are able to offer premium quality skincare at an affordable price point.

Our passion for natural, transparent, and inclusive skincare is at the heart of everything we do at Forneta. We are committed to empowering our customers with the knowledge and tools they need to achieve healthy, radiant skin. Join us on this journey of self-love and self-care, and experience the transformative power of nature-inspired skincare – a testament to the enduring legacy of West African beauty traditions.
