When you talk about beauty that sticks, Marviano Cosmetics doesn’t just enter the chat—it owns it!
At the center of this powerhouse movement is Marvella Akiojano, a Nigerian-born beauty and fashion content creator who’s not only captivated over a million followers online, but also created a cosmetic empire that’s redefining how lip products perform, feel, and flaunt.

From smudge-proof lip liners that actually stay on to glosses that glide like luxury, Marviano Cosmetics is answering the cries of makeup lovers everywhere—and Marvella’s journey from frustrated content creator to cosmetic CEO is proof that innovation starts with lived experience.

“What inspired me to start Marviano Cosmetics was honestly frustration turned into innovation,” she shared. “Every time I filmed a video, my lip liner would be gone by the end. And don’t even get me started on how my gloss applicators would get stained and change color just from touching the liner… So, as a problem solver at heart, I knew I had to get in the lab and create products that actually move with you, not off your face. That’s how Marviano was born.”
The results? Brick Mocha #3—the brand’s breakout lip liner and gloss combo—sold out within the first week of its launch and has been consistently sold out ever since.
“It’s that perfect blend of rich red and mocha brown that just hits on every skin tone,” Marvella said. “People love a signature lip combo, and Brick Mocha became that for a lot of my audience. It photographs beautifully, it doesn’t move, and it pulls together any look whether you’re running errands or stepping out.”

But this isn’t just another pretty product—it’s a beauty solution rooted in real-life need. Marviano’s lip liners are intentionally made to last up to four hours with minimal reapplication, without drying out or dragging. “We were intentional about every detail from the texture to the amount of product to how easy it is to twist up,” Marvella explained. “Quality wasn’t optional—it was non-negotiable.”
Marviano’s recent launch of long-lasting lip glosses was met with major online buzz and praise, a testament to her loyal community who not only uses her products but shapes them.
“Feedback from my followers and customers is everything,” Marvella says. “I don’t see them as just customers—I see them as family. A lot of them have been watching me grow up, so their voices matter to me on a personal and professional level.”
Despite wearing the dual crowns of CEO and content creator, Marvella keeps it grounded. “Balancing the business and creative sides is definitely a challenge, but because I love what I do, I find peace in the chaos,” she admits. “When things get overwhelming, I go back to what feels authentic and realign my focus.”
Looking ahead, the brand has no plans of slowing down. “The boys said they want some love too, so we might just have something cooking for them,” she teased. “We’re working on formulas that last without compromising comfort or style. New shades, new products, and maybe even some unexpected collabs are on the way. Just know Marviano is only getting started.”

For beauty lovers, trendsetters, and anyone tired of reapplying their lip liner mid-brunch—Marviano Cosmetics is the answer you didn’t know you were waiting for. And according to Marvella, if you’ve got a dream, don’t wait on perfect.
“Breathe through the chaos, trust the process, and take it one step at a time. Rome wasn’t built in a day, but it was built. Work hard, stay consistent, and most importantly, put it in God’s hands.”
Because when faith meets formula, magic happens, and your lip combo stays flawless!
