About UsBy Maryam - Owner of CiciEssentiels
It pains me to see women forgetting how powerful they are.
It hurts to see softness mistaken for weakness – beauty for vanity – confidence for arrogance.
I created Ciciessentiels because I wanted women to remember what it feels like to truly love themselves. To look in the mirror and see not just a pretty face, but a woman in the making — healing, growing, and becoming.
I’ve learned that confidence isn’t something we’re born with — it’s something we build.
Through heartbreak, through victories, through moments of doubt and grace.
That is why every Ciciessentiels product carries an intention: to remind you of your worth, your light, your power.
I believe that femininity is strength, that beauty can be gentle and fierce at once.
I want every woman — from Dakar to Dubai — to feel that soft power when she puts on her lip gloss.
Because when a woman takes care of herself, she changes her energy.
And when she changes her energy, she changes her life.
Our Philosophy
At Ciciessentiels, we don’t sell lip gloss ; we create rituals of self-love.
Each shade is inspired by a journey: Confidence, Healing, Elevate, Self-Trust, Dream Girl.
They are affirmations in color form ; a whisper to your reflection saying,
“You are becoming the woman you were always meant to be.”
Our Promise
Our formulas are crafted with care ; enriched with Sweet Almond Oil, Vitamin E, and nourishing botanicals that hydrate, protect, and soften your lips.
All our products are vegan, cruelty-free, and infused with intention.
From our hydrating balms with SPF 30 to our richly pigmented glosses, every Ciciessentiels creation is designed to care for your lips and your spirit.
Because beauty isn’t about perfection ; it’s about presence.
It’s about how you show up for yourself every day, with grace, softness, and confidence.
Ciciessentiels — The Art of Becoming
This is more than makeup.
This is your reminder that you can be soft and strong, gentle and powerful,
healing and still glowing.
Every time you reach for your gloss, you are choosing yourself — and that’s where true beauty begins.
