On this episode I chat with Rukayat Moibi, the founder of Rukai Botanicals—a wellness brand rooted in West African herbal traditions and crafted for modern, sensitive skin. Her line of gentle, plant-based skincare and nourishing teas is designed especially for those with eczema-prone or dry, sensitive bodies—featuring formulas made with over 98% plant-derived ingredients.
Beyond her beautiful product range, Rukayat brings her herbalism knowledge to life through wellness events and workshops, which she’s hosted for organizations like The Shard, Pernod Ricard, and Age UK. We’re excited to dive into her journey, her philosophy, and the healing power of plants.
We talk about what it was like for her to grow up with eczema and how she navigated the impact on her self confidence. She shares how she grew her business and what it means to develop purposeful products, and gives advice on what parents, carers and families can do to support children living with a chronic skin condition - tune in now to catch this healing conversation.
