About Us
Welcome to Bodi by Samirah! I am Samirah, mother, daughter, sister, wife and artisan soap maker. Bodi by Samirah was founded in 2010, shortly after I got married. I played around with some DIY projects that I then shared with friends and family who pushed me to start BBS. When I had my daughter in 2012, I dove deep into researching the best ingredients for babies and developed a baby line to address the needs of her sensitive skin. Since then, BBS has taken off and become what you see today.
Our Philosophy
Bodi by Samirah is committed to providing you with quality skin care products. Each product is handmade and packaged special for every customer. We utilize the finest ingredients to combine nature, the science of healing and cleansing. BBS is unique because each product truly is all natural, paraben free, sulfate free, phthalate free, and free of a lot of other chemicals that show up in our body products in big department stores. Our variety of products caters to a number of skin and hair types. If the product you purchase is not suitable for you, we'll assist you in finding something in our collection that is or give you your money back.
