debut product
the doll butter
It’s time to step up your confidence with super soft skin. Massage every inch of your beautiful body with my deliciously whipped body cream loaded with tropical oils, butters, and extracts. Enjoy long-lasting hydration, non-sticky glow and touchably soft skin.
CeCe Olisa
The Founder
In my experience, confidence doesn't build my daily routine; my everyday routine builds my confidence. Women often ask me, how do I love my body? I believe that love is a verb — it’s an action word. So the best way to begin loving your body is to start taking care of it. I created the Doll Butter to celebrate the routine of self-love and self-care – beneficial for both the skin and the soul.
