Meet Shirley Mwangi, the innovative founder and CEO of Shirlee’s Essentials. During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, Shirley sought an alternative income stream that would not only support her financially but also cater to the nurturing needs of women who often sacrifice their downtime for others.
Recognizing the importance of self-pampering and relaxation, Shirley embarked on a journey to create a range of luxurious self-care products. In April 2024, after three years of extensive research and development, Shirlee launched her brand and began piloting her products.
Her initial offerings include:
- Shower Gels: Priced at 999 KES
- Soy Wax-Scented Candles: Available in two sizes, 100g for 1,499 KES and 200g for 2,799 KES
- Body Butter: Made from organic ingredients like shea butter and mango butter, ranging from 949 to 1,899 KES
Shirley is also working on expanding her line to include lip balms and shampoos, with plans to introduce a home care line in the near future.
Positive Feedback and Future Plans
The feedback from customers has been overwhelmingly positive, with many appreciating the quality and effectiveness of the products. However, some have suggested changes in packaging, which Shirley is currently addressing to enhance the overall customer experience.
