Meet the Founder

As a licensed esthetician and Sephora Beauty Scholar, Tenisha brings a unique blend of professional skin education and real-world beauty industry experience into every product she creates. Her background is further shaped by working within a dermatology office, where she gained insight into clinical skincare environments, observed patient care practices, and deepened her understanding of ingredient sensitivities and real skin concerns.

 

But SoMaelle wasn’t created from credentials alone; it was created from experience.

 

As someone who understands what it feels like to want effective, beautifully scented products without compromising skin comfort, Tenisha set out to build something different. She noticed a gap in the market: body care that was either luxurious or gentle but rarely both. So she created a brand that delivers both, intentionally.

 

Through SoMaelle Skin, she introduces a system-based approach to body care, inspired by professional skincare routines, designed to cleanse, condition, seal, and nourish the skin in a way that feels elevated, yet accessible. Every formula reflects her commitment to thoughtful ingredients, balanced fragrance, and a skin-first philosophy.

 

Beyond the products, Tenisha is building a brand rooted in empowerment for those who have felt overlooked in traditional beauty spaces, especially individuals navigating sensitive skin.

 

SoMaelle Skin is more than body care. It’s a standard.

 

A standard that says you don’t have to choose between luxury and comfort.
A standard that honors both how your skin feels and how you want to feel in it.

 

And at the center of it all is a founder who didn’t wait for permission to create something better she built it.
