The Heart Behind Ginger Bean™

Hi, I’m Kayla—mama, maker, and licensed esthetician and cosmetologist.

Ginger Bean™ was born from both my hands-on experience in skincare and my heart as a mother. I’ve spent years learning what our skin truly needs—and just as importantly, what it doesn’t. Now, I pour that knowledge into every soap and balm I create, using only ingredients that are clean, nurturing, and deeply restorative.

My love for natural care runs deep—it was planted in me as a child. My mom is Trinidadian, a true island woman through and through. She’s always been a naturist at heart, finding remedies in plants, healing in oils, and wisdom in the earth. I grew up watching her care for us with things from the garden, not the pharmacy—jojoba oil for dry skin, oregano for fevers, herbs for healing.

That’s where it all began. It wasn’t trendy—it was tradition. The way my mom mothered, and the way her mom mothered before her. That care left an imprint on me.

Now that I have my own family and three little ones of my own, I yearn to do the same—to create traditions that heal, products that protect, and memories wrapped in the love and intention I was raised with.

Ginger Bean™ is more than a brand—it’s a continuation of that legacy.

Rooted in culture. Fueled by motherhood. Crafted with care.
