Our Story
Where Radiance Begins
The Founder
Fehintola Akinwande
Founder & Head Formulator
“I started Chummie's Radiance because I was tired of searching for products that actually understood my skin. Nigerian skin is beautifully complex — and it deserves beautifully complex care.”
Fehintola spent years frustrated by skincare shelves that weren't designed for Nigerian skin tones, textures, or climate. So she did what any passionate person does — she started making her own.
What began as late-night kitchen experiments became a brand beloved across Nigeria. Today, Chummie's Radiance is Fehintola's full-time mission: creating skincare that celebrates every shade of Nigerian beauty.
