Excellent quality products with so much creativity and beauty. My best friend and I could have spent hours just looking at each pair of earrings one by one. Had to come back a couple days later for something that caught my eye, and I have plans to come back in another few days. So glad to have this store nearby.

I’ve been a loyal customer of this store for years, and I’m so glad to see that they’ve remained a staple in the Rogers Park area. Their selection of essential oils and body shea butters is unmatched! The quality is always top-notch, and the products never fail to deliver.
The essential oils are incredibly fragrant and have provided great therapeutic benefits, whether I’m using them for relaxation or as part of my skincare routine. The shea butters are equally amazing – they leave my skin feeling incredibly soft, hydrated, and nourished.
It’s so refreshing to have a reliable, locally-owned shop that offers such high-quality, natural products. I’m always impressed with the variety they have, whether you're new to essential oils or an experienced user.
I wholeheartedly recommend this store to anyone looking for premium essential oils and skincare products. It’s a gem in Rogers Park, and I’m so glad they’ve continued to thrive!

Unan Imports is one of my favorite hidden gems in Chicago. I’ve bought several art pieces and dresses for affordable prices here, and they’ve all stood the test of time. The dresses fit well and always get compliments when I’m out and about. I can tell great care is put into each piece, as well as the store itself. The owner is very kind and helpful, and the music and ambiance of the store is supreme. I’ve loved every visit ☺️

First time visiting and they had a nice selection of homemade body butters and in sample sizes too. Purchased amber white and it makes your skin glisten, plus a subtle scent. They have body oils, black soap, share butter and so much more. They also have clothing and jewelry. The best part the OWNER, he was kind, friendly and has a great laugh. I will DEFINITELY be coming back.

I recently visited this lovely African Good Store and left with some amazing products! The virgin coconut oil and jojoba oil are pure and high-quality—perfect for my skincare routine. The Velvet Sugar perfume was an unexpected delight—so rich and sweet, I’ve gotten compliments already!
The shop has such a warm, inviting vibe, and the owner was very helpful. Next time, I’m excited to try their beautiful dresses, aromatic incense, and their fantastic selection of body butters and scrubs. If you’re looking for authentic, nourishing products, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
