Kahina Giving Beauty Final Chapter

Dear Friend, 

It is with a heavy heart that I write to let you know that, after 18 years, Kahina Giving Beauty will be winding down its operations in 2026. 

When I started Kahina nearly 20 years ago, I had a vision to bring ethical sourcing and high clean standards to the North American beauty market. I wanted to elevate organic skincare and build a business around a single ingredient that I believed deserved to be better understood and appreciated: Argan Oil.

Over the years, Kahina helped shape the conversation around ethical sourcing, transparency, and the power of plant-based ingredients. I am deeply proud of that, and of our commitment to staying true to the values and standards on which the company was built.

And that is also why I have made the difficult decision to bring this chapter of Kahina to a close.

Operating an independent business at a global scale, while maintaining the level of intention, ethical standards, and product quality that I have always believed in, has become increasingly difficult and ultimately unsustainable.

It feels important to me to close this chapter on the same terms on which I started this brand, with intention and a commitment to doing things the right way.

There is so much I am proud of when I look back on what we have built. I am proud of the relationships we have cultivated with the Berber communities in Morocco who have supplied our oils. I am proud of building an independent business alongside my husband, Jim, and daughter, Grace. I am proud of the standards we have adhered to in formulating our products, and in running an ethical business.

And most of all, I am grateful for the loyal customers who have believed in Kahina, trusted our products, and stayed with us through all these years.  I have appreciated every order, every email, and every review. 

Thank you for making space for us in your skincare routine and becoming a part of our story.

It has been an honour to have you with us. 

We will miss you. 

With heartfelt gratitude, 

Katharine

Founder, Kahina Giving Beauty
