A rich, velvety body butter created for skin that needs deep, dependable moisture without fragrance, heaviness, or unnecessary extras. Akiba’s Velvet Kpangnan Body Butter is made with a creamy butter consistency that melts into the skin on contact, spreads smoothly, and absorbs without a greasy finish.
Powered by Kpangnan butter, a West African butter known for its rich, velvety feel, this formula helps soften and protect dry skin while supporting a smooth, comfortable finish. The blend also includes kokum butter, mango butter, cupuaçu butter, grapeseed oil, pequi oil, vitamin E, and sea buckthorn fruit oil, creating a body butter that feels nourishing, intentional, and beautifully balanced.
This is the kind of product that represents modern heritage beauty at its best: rooted in powerful natural ingredients, designed with sensitive skin in mind, and made for people who want luxury without irritation. It is fragrance-free, with no masking fragrance and no essential oils, making it ideal for dry, reactive, or fragrance-sensitive skin.

Skin, Hair, and Product Guidance
Are the products suitable for sensitive skin?
Some products may be suitable for sensitive-feeling skin, but every person's skin is different. We recommend reviewing the full ingredient list, doing a patch test before full use, and avoiding products with ingredients you know you are sensitive to.
Do you provide medical or skin condition advice?
No. Splendid Beauty does not provide medical advice. Product descriptions are for general information only. If you have eczema, allergies, severe acne, scalp conditions, or any medical concern, please speak with a qualified healthcare professional before using a new product.
How should I choose the right product for me?
Start by shopping by your main goal, such as hydration, glow, gentle cleansing, body moisture, oils, or targeted care. Product pages include descriptions, key benefits, and recommended use cases to help you decide. As Splendid Beauty grows, we may add a routine quiz to guide customers more personally. We currently have a quiz that will be able to give you a solid starting point if you do not know where to start.
Do you sell products for melanin-rich skin?
Yes. Splendid Beauty focuses on products selected with melanin-rich skin, textured hair, and culturally rooted beauty needs in mind. Suitability still depends on each product, formula, and customer's personal skin or hair needs.
Do you sell hair care products?
Splendid Beauty is designed to support skincare, body care, hair care, and beauty essentials. Hair care products may be added as supplier products, photos, pricing, and compliance information are finalized.
Should I patch test a new product?
Yes. We recommend patch testing new skincare, body care, hair care, and lip products before full use. Apply a small amount to a discreet area and wait before using more broadly, especially if your skin is sensitive or reactive.
