About Our Company (Read Press Releases)
Uyai means beauty! It is a word from the Efik language spoken in parts of South Eastern Nigeria.
Uyai is also about elegance and pampering yourself. Traditionally the Efik people ran a finishing school where young women were tutored in the finer and timeless arts of beauty and style secrets.
Uyai is about the inner glow that comes with knowing that you've taken good care of yourself.
Uyai.com, LLC was created to serve as a preferred source for premium quality beauty products designed specifically for people of color by people of color. A place where you can take good care of yourself.
Uyai.com recognizes that many of the most highly desired ingredients in beauty products, for example Shea butter and Myrrh, are native to Africa. The world is discovering what African women have known for centuries and the products we carry are all inspired by these ancient secrets.
Uyai.com brings you products right from this ancient source and will continue to search for and offer only those products that meet this criteria.
Learn how to pronounce our name: (ooh-yah-e)
First, think about that special person;
Pucker up as if to give them a kiss.
That gets you the U (ooh, rhymes with you)
Feeling great?
Now flash them a big wide smile, exhaling as you do so.
That takes you to the YA (yah rhymes with car)
Keeping your teeth together, relax your face and gently speak the letter E.
That takes you to the I.
Now put it all together (ooh-yah-e).....Uyai!
Simple and short but with great meaning.
The slower you say it, the more it means...
