We had the good fortune of connecting with ROMA and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi ROMA, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I was born in the great state of Texas but, home for me can be found on the wonderful west coast of Ghana!

Growing up in an international household,I was always surrounded by rich culture and tradition. One of the many special things my mother shared with me very early is her love for natural body and self care regimens which she learned from my grandmother.

I admire the women in my life who laid the foundation on how showing yourself grace and love when life happens will always serve you well.

With pampering and practicing self love as a back drop to my life, creating luxurious body care products with ingredients found in the heart of Ghana brings me so much joy. It is my hope That sharing my creations with others will spark the beauty of taking a moment to experience well deserved self care everyday !

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
VYLA NOIRE was created as a way to share my love of natural body care and the beauty of incorporating a touch of luxury to an everyday routine.

With there being so many options to choose from in the body care industry, creating moisturizing butters & scrub products made of ethically sourced and plant based ingredients are top priority.

I’m currently most excited about the expansion of products coming very soon! Stay tuned.

Let’s say your best friend was visiting the area and you wanted to show them the best time ever. Where would you take them? Give us a little itinerary – say it was a week long trip, where would you eat, drink, visit, hang out, etc.
I’m a true home body at heart however, when live music or good food is involved, I’m all in!

Visiting places such as Soho Food & Jazz, The Balcony Club, It’s So Vegan and wandering throughout the Dallas Art District are Great areas to explore

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
