Dr. Mona’s Creative Flair in Art:
Dr. Mona Hussein Ali is not only revered for being passionate about creating a no-chemical-preservatives-free, alcohol free and all natural ingredients skincare products brand but also for her creative flair.

It celebrates humanity and wildlife to portray a nostalgic eye that longs for the warmth when connection between man and nature was inviolable. Her artworks are deeply rooted in the African wild-life and rural landscapes which reveal her deep connection with nature.
From the Tree of Nature to the king of the jungle, her art precisely takes you to the tales of tradition culture and universal laws. Just observe the precision of strokes from her paint brush and understand the details captured, it is hard to believe she never trained as an artist.

Dr. Mona’s Natural Ingredients Skincare Brand – Naturally Number One:
Initially seeking to address her own issues with aging and hair loss, Dr. Mona’s research led her to produce goods for Naturally Number One Cosmetics. The products range stems from her ten years of detailed research work and testing in laboratories. Naturally, Number One Cosmetics offers one hair care product and six skin care products. Day and night creams, under-eye creams, skin-whitening creams, toner and exfoliants are all part of the skin care line. They are enhanced with collagen, elastin, and hyaluronic acid, as well as a variety of natural antioxidants, hydrants, nutrients, and anti-inflammatory agents for an anti-aging impact.
Of course, Number One is unique in a lot of ways. First of all, the factory is essentially a sizable laboratory where aseptic methods are used to create goods in sterile settings. Second, they avoid the use of artificial substances, emulsifiers, and preservatives, which may be detrimental to both people and the environment. Thirdly, their products are meticulously and laboriously manufactured and may contain as many as 70 different ingredients. Fourth, because the skin is water-tight, water is not used as a hydrant or solvent like it is in most creams. Rather, the company uses natural plant hydrants that provide deep hydration by penetrating the skin. Even though this is a more expensive stage, they prefer to offer consumers quality products rather than growing a profitable business.
Dr. Mona Hussein Ali is a very versatile entrepreneur who has made her mark in the UAE through her genuine desire to offer unique and high-quality products in skincare and fashion to the local consumers. When it comes to fashion and creative art, she has mastered the art of seamlessly blending the old with the new, creating pieces that resonate with both tradition and modernity. As an artist she retains a distinct identity that inspires her fans.
