Our team

Hi, I'm Ivana Johannissen — the CEO and founder of K and Q Cosmetics.

Starting this brand was deeply personal to me. I’ve always believed that everyone deserves to feel confident and beautiful in their own skin, without having to spend a fortune. I saw a need for skincare that’s honest, effective, and affordable, and that’s exactly what inspired me to create K and Q Cosmetics.

With an Honours Degree in Environmental and Water Science, I’ve always been passionate about understanding what we put on and into our bodies. That knowledge shapes the way I formulate each product - with care, safety, and skin health at the core. Our range is paraben-free, cruelty-free, and fragrance-free, because I care about what goes on your skin — and what stays out of it.

Thank you for trusting K and Q with your skincare journey. Your support means the world to me, and I’m so grateful to grow this community of glowing, confident individuals.

With love and gratitude,
Ivana Johannissen

Hi, I'm Lucille Januarie — the proud founder and marketer behind K and Q Skincare.

My journey into skincare began with a deep love for beauty and a desire to make high-quality skincare accessible to everyone. I’ve always believed that healthy, glowing skin shouldn’t come at a high cost — everyone deserves to feel confident in their own skin. That belief became the foundation of K and Q Skincare.

As both the founder and the marketer, I pour my passion and energy into every product we create and every message we share. I’m committed to developing safe, effective, and affordable skincare solutions that truly make a difference. Every product is designed with care, aiming to restore confidence and reveal the natural beauty in each of us.

At K and Q, we don’t just sell skincare — we build trust. Our products are paraben-free, cruelty-free, and fragrance-free, because I care deeply about the well-being of your skin and our planet.

Thank you for being part of this journey. Your support inspires me daily to keep growing, improving, and creating skincare that loves your skin as much as you do.

With appreciation and love,
Lucille Januarie
Founder & Marketer, K and Q Skincare
