BA KENE – More Than Skincare, It’s a Movement

--:--
BA KENE is a proudly South African skincare brand founded by actor and entrepreneur Thabiso Molokomme. Built on the belief that skincare is about confidence, self-respect, and showing up for yourself, BA KENE is redefining self-care for the youth—especially boys and young men who’ve been left out of the skincare conversation. With simple, affordable, and gender-neutral products, the brand is making skincare accessible and empowering.

Through powerful campaigns like the Show Up Tours across Gauteng and Limpopo, BA KENE is educating learners on self-care while sparking a bigger conversation around confidence, identity, and looking after yourself. In this interview, Thabiso shares the heart behind the brand, how he’s turning skincare into a lifestyle, and why it’s time we all rethink what it means to care for our skin.
