Nante Yie Eco-Bars

Why did I leave a C-Suite career? Definitely not to make “soap.” One reason was to fulfill a dream to engineer a protocol especially for travelers that respects our skin, our planet, and the communities we call home.

Most shampoo bars are just alkaline soap. They don’t lather. They strip your hair and scalp. Nante Yie’s Indigo Oasis shampoo ECO-BAR is a pH 5.5 scalp detoxifier. It is formulated to repair your hair and protect your scalp, not strip it.

The Nante Yie Protocol:
* 2 Week Cure: We age our bars to stabilize botanical proteins.
* pH 5.5: Perfectly balanced to leave your scalp, hair, and face feeling smooth and nourished.
* Impact Driven: Ethically sourced West African botanicals and direct partnerships to revitalize artisan communities.
* Biodegradable: So you leave no chemical runoff and no plastic wherever you visit.

The Evidence:
“For a really long time I have looked for a shampoo to soothe my scalp and yours works wonders! With the conditioner, my curls form immediately.”
Celeste A.

True luxury is freedom. It is the peace of mind that your routine is intact, your hair is nourished, and you are keeping the waters you visit as pristine as you found them. All while supporting the traditional crafters who make this possible.

“Take only memories, leave only footprints.”
- Chief Seattle

My life’s passion is traveling further than I am.

Knowing Nante Yie ECO-BARS are being used in Bora Bora, cottage country Ontario, Vietnam, Ireland and the hidden gems of Ghana is a dream. While Bora Bora is still on my bucket list, it is an honor to know that my life’s work is already there caring for your skin, protecting your hair, and keeping the waters pristine.

Why the Nante Yie Protocol is the luxury standard:
- Performance: 3-5 week cured botanicals that repair the skin barrier.
- Precision: pH 5.5—the standard for healthy, scalp, hair, and face.
- Impact: Ethically sourced West African ingredients that uplift artisan communities.

True luxury is freedom. It is the peace of mind that your routine is intact, your hair is nourished, and because of your choices you help the waters you visit remain pristine.

Nante Yie. Walk well. Travel light.

True luxury is the freedom to move without compromise.

I’ve spent over 20 years as a formulator. These ECO-BARs are luxe, quality self care, good to our earth, and uplift artisan communities. This system replaces the plastic bottles in your suitcase or carry on with long lasting, high performance botany.

The Nante Yie Travel Protocol:
1. Indigo Oasis: A plant based scalp detoxifier that is pH-balanced (5.5) to strengthen from the root.
2. By the Sea or Citrus Splash: Tailored conditioning. Whether you need intense detangling for curls or lightweight elasticity for fine hair, we have the science backed botanical match.
3. Rainforest Synergy: A 5 week cured cleansing bar rich in Moringa and Shea. It protects and repairs your skin barrier. Regular soaps strip it.

Pack light. Pack smart. Pack the integrity of pure West African botanicals.

They say “pack light.” At Nante Yie, we believe you should stop packing expensive water.

Are you tired of sacrificing your travel haircare and skin health just to fit the TSA liquid limit? Sick of checking in luggage just to take along quality products, or worse stripping your skin barrier and hair with harsh hotel soaps?

You don’t need to compromise. Nante Yie is for all of us who love travel and refuse to choose between performance and freedom.

The Nante Yie Protocol:
- TSA Approved: Solid format, zero liquid, zero spills, no limits.
- pH-Balanced: Perfectly formulated for your scalp, hair, and face
- Frizz Proof: Our solid shampoo, Indigo Oasis, has a rare blend of West African tigernut milk, soy protein, and pure botanicals that strengthen hair and leave it silky soft.
- Eco-Friendly : All our products are toxin free and plant-based. So no harm to waterways at home or away. No plastic waste.

Let’s Nante Yie (Walk well) together. True luxury is freedom. True luxury leaves no trace and causes no harm.

“Clean beauty” is a marketing myth !?! Hear me out. I am a certified a natural and organic formulator. I have spent decades devoted to the art and science of formulation.

I love this industry passionately , but I’m also tired of the fear mongering.

Knowledge is power. If you want skincare science that is good for your skin AND the places we travel, hit FOLLOW. 👇🏾

“Clean Beauty” has become a marketing weapon, not a scientific standard. Dermatologists and toxicologists agree: the industry uses fear to sell us products. Over the years, and as a member of the Society of Cosmetic Scientists, I seen facts get buried by buzzwords.

Here are two claims that should make you go... HMMM.

Big Myth 1: “We are Chemical Free”
FACT: Impossible. Water, vitamins, and botanicals like olive oil are all chemicals. Everything has chemical properties.

Big Myth 2: Natural’s always Safe
FACT: Nope. For example, arsenic and poison ivy are 100% natural. And 100% toxic.

The Nante Yie Difference:
We formulate truly bio-compatible cleansing, shampoo and conditioner ECO-BARS. We use the highest grade, directly sourced West African botanicals proven over centuries and backed by modern science. You’ll never see us promoting “hot trends” because we prioritize skin health and ancient wisdom.

From us, you get products that :
- are individually handcrafted and cut.
- are safe, effective, and pH-balanced. They make your skin and hair feel smooth, nourished and refreshed.
- are superb for home and travel. They are eco-friendly, will never leak in your luggage, and perfect for carry on. So no matter where you go, you’ll leave the waterways as pristine as you found them.

Buzzwords make great songs. Facts, pure ingredients, and true artisanship make great products.

Tired of the fear mongering? Join us. Let’s get back to ancient truths backed by real science.

Nante Yie is known for our premium hair and body care bars. But there is one exclusive formula I have kept off the internet. Meet Babi See CuteButt Balm! It’s named after my grandson.

Over 30 years ago, my children suffered from hyper reactive skin. My mother’s grandmother was traditional doula and midwife. My mother taught me traditional remedies that soothed and healed my babies’ skin. When my grandson was born, I went back to those roots.
Each of his products are a meticulous, slow crafted labour of love.

This remedy is based on the wisdom of what has worked for centuries, and is backed by science. It protects delicate skin barriers while actively nourishing skin.

To celebrate Your Downtown Doula’s 10th Anniversary this weekend, I have handcrafted a single, micro batch of Babi See CuteButt Balm just for this event.

🇨🇦TORONTO:
And of course we will have our fabulous hair and body ECO-BARS there too.
So excited! It’s going to be a wonderful celebration of communitv connection and healthy beginnings.

Most “shampoo bars” are actually just soap. They have a high pH (9-10) which lifts your hair cuticle, causing friction, damage and tangled, dry hair.
I formulated the Indigo Oasis as a true syndet bar.
The pH: A precise 5.5 (Ideal pH for your scalp, face, and hair).
It’s magic power: The perfect infusion of ancient tigernut milk + soy protein.
The wait: 3 weeks to cure.
It strengthens your hair, soothes your scalp and never strips your strands.
0% Plastic. 0 Harm. 0 Stress. 100% Science.
