About Us
Dibia is a London-based wellness brand leveraging the power of African botanicals to create luxurious skincare that is inclusive, sustainable and fun. Our name (pronounced Dee-byah), means “healer” in Igbo, a language spoken by over 44 million people in Nigeria. Like these traditional healers we harness the wisdom of generations to formulate products that address the skincare needs of our diverse customer base. We are a skincare brand built on the belief that true beauty lies in healthy, nourished skin, and that everyone deserves to feel confident and radiant in their own skin.
We avoid fillers and unnecessary additives, focusing instead on potent, functional ingredients from Nature’s garden, chosen for their efficacy. This ensures our products target specific skincare needs and deliver visible results, without causing irritation and other adverse effects on skin.
We are dedicated to responsible sourcing practices, sustainable innovation and product development, ensuring that our products are not only good for you, but also good for the planet. We partner with and empower the communities where we source our ingredients, ensuring they thrive alongside our own business.
Launched in November 2021, London-based, Nigerian-born graphic designer Ike Muotoh debuted the natural skincare line Dibia with the ambition to develop a sustainable wellness brand, rooted in nature with products that anyone – regardless of skin colour, skin type, age or gender – will want to use. Each product is handmade in London, England with natural ingredients, vegan and cruelty free with reusable or easily recyclable packaging.
The line launched with three whipped body butters enriched with High Strength Vitamin E, a hero ingredient that helps fight premature ageing. The carefully considered mixture of unrefined shea butter, mango butter, jojoba oil and sweet almond oil results in high performance, non-greasy body butters that moisturise for softer and more supple skin with a healthy glow. The formula soothes eczema, psoriasis and dry skin, and reduces the look of scars and stretch marks over the course of time.
Each body butter is whipped for a light, airy texture that quickly absorbs into the skin. The two signature scents made with an indulgent blend of natural essentials oils are: the Patchouli and Cedarwood whipped body butter featuring a woody infusion of sacred essentials oils, including patchouli, frankincense, myrrh, cedarwood atlas and vanilla; and the Sweet Neroli and Sandalwood whipped body butter featuring a sweet citrusy blend of grounding essentials oils including sweet neroli, black pepper, lavender, sandalwood amyris and vanilla. An unscented variation works perfectly for all skin types especially sensitive skin.
