Clean beauty brand Ami Colé has announced its closure. 

"After four powerful & soul-stretching years, l’ve made the hard decision to wind down Ami Colé. What started as a mission to create clean beauty for melanin-rich skin became a movement and a metaphoric home for so many of you (just like what my mother built with her salon). We were a brand rooted in purpose, storytelling, and the bold celebration of who we are. Let’s not forget bomb ass products! This moment is bittersweet. You’ve witnessed me start from a sketch in my Brooklyn apartment to the shelves of every Sephora in North America in 4 years. Thank you for everything you’ve taught me about living your dreams out loud. Thank you to the investors who genuinely believed in me. Sephora for making a home for us. My team for the amazing work you’ve poured into this. And my community! Just wow - I have no words. Y’all did that." said founder Diarrha N'Diaye-Mbaye.
