Meet our Founder, Angela Fields I'd been experiencing too many allergic reactions on my skin and my dermatologist wanted me to re-do my allergy and patch testing. The allergy test results didn't change much but OMG the patch test results did! I'm allergic to fragrance! Wait! What? Isn't fragrance in everything? Well, almost! Seriously 96-98% of hair care is fragranced! Yet 36 million are allergic to fragrance! I'd already decided to transition to my natural hair texture. And all I could find was fragranced hair care products. It was so frustrating! I even shopped in Canada and Europe. I found better options there but I still wasn't satisfied. I was already frustrated. Then I got mad. And then I got busy. I got busy buying raw ingredients and making hair care products in my kitchen. I'd try a formula and if I didn't like it I'd try another. And another. And another. Until I found my holy grail. I did this for about a year before I even thought about launching my hair care brand. I decided to launch as I knew I wasn't the only person living like this. I knew others were just as frustrated as me, if not more. Everybody should have options! Amazing options! Since I launched in 2015 it's been an insightful journey full of entrepreneurial, business and personal growth!

Our story begins with our founder LaKeisha’s first pregnancy. When a struggle with secondary infertility prompted a complete lifestyle change; she discovered finding a suitable skincare routine was easier said than done. In addition to wanting products that were natural, they also needed to fit into the lifestyle of a new mom and not further irritate her already sensitive skin. Having always been a skincare minimalist, she found the options for plant based skincare either too complicated or incompatible with her skin sensitivities. Being an avid DIY’er and armed with over a decade of experience in pharmaceutical manufacturing she began mixing options in her kitchen. After successfully creating a cleanser, made with a base of west african black soap, LaKeisha decided to build out a complete collection for people like her. Women who value simplicity and ingredients quality as much as they value efficacy. Today Elements of Aliel is a collection of products that are gentle, yet effective and made with nature and love. We focus on ingredient quality to bring you plant powered goodness that rivals anything you an find on the market today.
