City Editor Erika here. I recently caught up with Chinenyem Nwadiugwu, founder and CEO of She Biology, a CBD skincare brand based in Charleston. You can find the products on Six & Main, our parent company’s e-commerce site featuring premium products made by small businesses and artists across the country.

What is She Biology?
We envision a compassionate sanctuary within the skincare community, where our meticulously crafted products transcend the ordinary, offering a mindful wellness journey. Through the synergy of our organically grown cannabinoid and non-cannabinoid strains, harmoniously blended with potent skincare actives, we aspire to co-create a haven for stress-free skin and serene minds.

Our heartfelt mission is to inspire a culture of self-care, transforming beauty routines into rituals of tranquility that resonate with the soul.

What do you love about running your business in Charleston?
I adore Charleston’s strong sense of community, particularly its unwavering support for small businesses. She Biology has thrived thanks to the encouragement I’ve received from so many individuals and organizations, such as Lowcountry Local First, The Harbour Club, and Black Charleston Professionals. They’ve championed the brand from its earliest stages.

What sets She Biology apart from other similar businesses?
She Biology sets itself apart by emphasizing the profound connection between skincare and mental well-being. We believe that a well-defined skincare routine can be transformed into a mindful self-care ritual, offering a sense of calm and focus amidst daily stressors.

Can you tell us about your upcoming event?
We’re thrilled to host a luxurious sunset yoga event at the Mills House hotel on Friday, April 19 from 6 to 9 p.m. This event promises to be a multifaceted self-care experience that will nourish your mind, body, and spirit through mindfulness, movement, and connection.

Pro tip: Everything you need, including plush yoga mats, woven bags, refreshing drinks, and delectable bites will be provided.
