A few years ago, model, actor, singer and rising beauty mogul, Dorion Renaud found himself on an endless quest for skincare products that addressed the specific needs of his skin and came up empty. When he discovered raw, organic, natural shea butter, his journey into the beauty industry began, inspiring him to create Buttah Skin. Buttah has gained a super loyal following who love the unisex line of shea based products, but it’s also the representation of men and women of color in his marketing and social media that resonates with an underserved audience in personal care products, helping more people to feel seen and prioritized.
