The Brand Story

Karen Jones has always been passionate about skin and all-natural beauty products. Her passion ultimately later led her to become a licensed esthetician.

After years of working closely with skin, Jones became quite aware of what women want and need to keep their skin naturally glowing. Feeling that there was a need for more all-natural skin care products for women, especially women of color, she created the brand, Karen Olivia Beauty, LLC. 

“I am passionate about transforming people’s skin using our all-natural skincare products, and I’m thrilled to have helped over 200 clients achieve stunning results in as little as 60 minutes,” the CEO proclaims.
