Inspired by Nature, Crafted with Care

AIDA was born from a nurse's concern about harsh chemicals in commercial skincare. Drawing from Ethiopian botanical traditions, we create pure, handcrafted products that nurture your skin naturally.

Every formula is crafted in small batches in Silver Spring, Maryland, using ethically sourced ingredients — from wild-harvested frankincense resin to cold-pressed botanical oils. We believe what you put on your skin should be as pure as what you put in your body.

The Frankincense Tradition

Ethiopia is the spiritual home of frankincense — Boswellia papyrifera — one of the world's most precious natural resins. For millennia, Ethiopian communities have harvested this "liquid gold" from the rugged highlands, using it in sacred rituals, traditional medicine, and beauty practices.

The resin is carefully tapped from Boswellia trees that thrive in the arid mountains of Tigray and the Horn of Africa. Each bead of resin carries the essence of sun-baked earth, mountain air, and ancient wisdom.

At AIDA, we honor this tradition by sourcing pure, wild-harvested frankincense and blending it with complementary botanicals to create skincare that connects you to centuries of natural beauty rituals.
