Epicutis Skin Care range is ready to cement its name among well-known skincare ranges in the world.
The Skin Care range, proudly made in Bloemfontein has various skin care ranges and is available in top retailers in South Africa.
Epicutis Skin Care range was founded by Mantwa Makhakhe and her husband Dr. Lehlohonolo Makhakhe. The couple is in the personal care industry, manufacturing body creams, lotions, liquid hand soaps, and more.
Through intense market research, they realized that most products on the market are merely dermatologically recommended, foreign company based, and some compromised quality.
They then established Epicutis, a company that has products created by skin specialists, producing products that are designed for the harsh African climate and locally manufactured with the aim of playing a meaningful role in job creation within the sector.
Epicutis offers a wide range of skin products, with no compromise on the quality, for added moisturizing effect. The face cream treats dark spots and some of the body creams contain cannabis extracts which have many benefits for the skin.
“As is the case with all new products, we encounter many challenges. However, we are now listed with some retail outlets. Our products are available at selected Spar outlets in the Free State, North West, and Gauteng. We will soon be listed with Shoprite/Checkers, Makro online, and Takealot and we have our online store.” Said Dr. Lehlohonolo Makhakhe.
Epicutis is available at pharmacies with some of their products, listed with medical aids for eczema/dermatitis, a common condition affecting young children.
Epicutis has over 25 people employed. Dr. Lehlohonolo Makhakhe explained that they do their best to procure locally as much as possible.
Epicutis has 8 products, with a few having variants and they will soon be putting a day cream and foam wash on the shelves by December 2023, other products are in the pipeline.
The Epicutis brand is available in more than 25 Spar outlets, by the end of the year, it will be in at least 50 Spar outlets by year-end. Talks with Pick n Pay are at an advanced stage.
Despite only being in existence for a year, Epicutis continues to cement its name and growing by leaps and bounds.
“It is exactly one year since we launched, and we have learned so much since. Without the support of our committed team of shareholders, staff, and more importantly, the growing number of loyal customers, Epicutis would not be where it is today, growing steadily from strength to strength.” Dr Makhakhe added.
