A Story Rooted in Heritage and Vision
Born to a military father from Adamawa State and a mother from Edo State, Johntari Arabella embodies a blend of discipline, elegance, and cultural pride. Her upbringing shaped her passion for African heritage and inspired her drive to represent African beauty on the global stage.
Her journey reflects resilience, brilliance, and determination. Through Kamale Beauty, Johntari is not only redefining the beauty industry but also celebrating Black femininity and African womanhood. Her signature creation, the Black Girl Magic Kit, symbolizes confidence, identity, and timeless elegance — empowering women to embrace their natural beauty unapologetically.

At just 17 years old, Johntari earned her first degree in Food Science and Technology from Auchi Polytechnic, where she also held the title of Miss Culture of the Faculty of Applied Sciences. This role reflected her creative expression, leadership, and ability to inspire others.
Currently pursuing a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in International Business Management at a top international university, Johntari combines science, business, and artistry to strengthen her entrepreneurial vision.
Her leadership journey began long before her brand’s success. While in Optimum Victory College, Okitipupa, Ondo State, she was crowned Miss Optimum (2012/2013) and awarded a one-year scholarship for excellence in character and representation — early signs of the excellence that defines her today.

Johntari’s modeling career reflects her international appeal and charisma. She has modeled for Turkish brands, appeared in television campaigns across Africa, and gained national recognition as the second runner-up and only female finalist in House of Models Season 4 (2022).

Her modeling experiences deepened her understanding of aesthetics, inspiring the creative direction behind Kamale Beauty Cosmetics — a brand that merges African artistry with global sophistication.

Johntari Arabella’s upcoming Valentine’s Collection (2026) promises to make waves globally with the release of the Most Expensive African-Owned Skin Prep Flower Bouquet, a luxurious skincare innovation priced at $1,000. Described as a “once-in-a-decade masterpiece,” the bouquet symbolizes rarity, opulence, and self-love — redefining how the world perceives African luxury.
The Essence of Kamale Beauty
Kamale Beauty Cosmetics is deeply rooted in African culture and feminine empowerment. The brand pays tribute to iconic African queens and heroines such as Queen Makeda (Sheba), Queen Amina, Queen Nefertiti, Queen Moremi, Yaa Asantewaa, and Queen Nzinga — women who embodied strength, beauty, and power.
Each product tells a story. Her lip gloss collection, featuring shades named Grace, Favour, Peace, and Excellent, pays homage to her siblings, symbolizing love and family unity. Meanwhile, her upcoming Beauty of Itohan Eyeshadow Palette honors African history, celebrating women’s resilience and identity through color and creativity.
