Humble Beginnings
Nubian Heritage is the brainchild of two New York street vendors. In 1992, fresh out of college and without jobs, Rich and Nyema embarked on a mission to produce luxurious natural products from traditional African recipes with fair trade ingredients. Today Nubian Heritage offers culturally authentic natural products inspired by global ancient healing philosophies. Although Nubian Heritage products are no longer made in bath tubs, little else has changed- the company still makes its products, still uses fair trade ingredients and still invests in community commerce.
Heritage
Black Seed Oil, Nigella Sativa, can be traced back more than 3000 years to the Assyrians and ancient Egyptians. Discovered in the tomb of King Tutankhamen, Black Seed Oil was reportedly used by Queen Nefertiti to maintain her exquisite complexion. Black Seed earned the Arabic approbation "habbatul barakah", the seed of blessing, for its powerful properties. Honey has traditionally been used to comfort and soothe skin. Honoring this collection's skin-perfecting properties, our pattern symbolizes the tree of life rooting these time-tested ingredients to the long-established symbology of Ancient Egypt.
