MEET OUR CEO

Audrey AjakayeItch.
Itch. Scratch. Guilt. Repeat.

Audrey Ajakaye, the youngest Ivy League–educated CEO in the cosmeceutical industry, founded Audaja from her lifelong battle with chronic eczema.

As a National Eczema Ambassador, she helped pass the Safe Step Act Bill to make professional skincare more accessible. She also created the AI-based LoveMySkin app and produced the “Mind the Skin” podcast to promote skin well-being.

Her vision: professional-grade, dermatologist-tested skincare for all skin types—especially sensitive and melanin-rich skin. Backed by years of research with dermatologists and formulation experts, Audrey designed Audaja to deliver a simple, science-backed routine for healthy, radiant skin.

Audrey’s mission is clear—make skin well-being possible for everyone.

“I had eczema on my arms, I was shy wearing short sleeves...sometimes I even had eczema on my face.”
