The breakfast started with an introduction by PR Representative, Lakeshia Marie, who hosted the conversation on how the attendees are currently changing the narratives of Africa. CEO of Skin Gourmet, a natural skin care line sourced and made in Ghana, Violet Awo Amoabeng spear headed the conversation about her holistic approach to creating beauty products. Afua Osei of She Leads Africa shared how her platform offers resources and empowers over 500 thousand African women entrepreneurs to succeed in business.
Also debuting at the event was the first Glam Africa Beauty Box, a free box of beauty products that comes with a yearly subscription to the magazine. It is the first of it’s kind in Ghana and includes products from Kaeme, Colorbox Cosmetics and Skin Gourmet to name a few.
