Our Story

ABOUT US.

At EASE, we believe jewelry should do more than shine β€” it should spark conversation. Our pieces are designed to create social opportunity, whether through thoughtful symbolism, bold design, or unexpected details that invite curiosity and connection.

EASE is a Black-owned, woman-owned, and self-funded brand, built from the ground up by founder and innovator Christina E. Rogers. What began as a creative idea has grown into a movement centered around individuality, craftsmanship, and forward-thinking design.

At the heart of the brand is the Protective Mouth Grill (PMG) β€” a patent-pending innovation that reimagines the traditional mouth grill. Each PMG is crafted with a thin, durable, non-toxic protective layer that is bonded to the inside of the grill, creating a barrier between the metal and the wearer’s teeth. This unique construction allows customers to enjoy the aesthetic of a grill while prioritizing comfort and oral protection, blending fashion with function in a way the industry had never seen before.

At its core, EASE is about expression. The brand was built on the belief that the people with the most to say are often the quietest in the room β€” the observers who communicate through art, design, and personal style. Through innovative products like the Protective Mouth Grill and thoughtfully designed pieces, EASE gives people a new way to express themselves without saying a word.

OUR FOUNDER

EASE was founded by entrepreneur and innovator Christina E. Rogers, the creative force behind the patent-pending Protective Mouth Grill (PMG) β€” a groundbreaking product that merges self-expression with dental protection.

Originally from Houston, Texas, Christina moved to Los Angeles in 2011 to pursue a career in songwriting. While building her creative career, she discovered her true passion for entrepreneurship and spent seven years running an online clothing store before launching what would become her most notable innovation.

In 2021, Christina invented the Protective Mouth Grill, the first grill of its kind designed with a protective layer inside that shields teeth from metal. The invention transformed the traditional grill into something both stylish and functional, offering a new option for people who want to express themselves without compromising their oral health.

Since launching EASE, Christina has led the brand through rapid growth. The company has sold over 4,500 Protective Mouth Grills, expanded its offerings to include tooth gems, and completed two national tours, with a third currently underway. EASE has also evolved into a recognized small business serving both direct consumers and industry professionals through pop-ups, private appointments, and collaborative activations.

Christina’s work and innovation have been recognized by major publications including Forbes, AfroTech, Black Enterprise, PoCIT, and PopSugar, and her designs have appeared across television, film, and high-profile client circles.

Known for her relentless work ethic and hands-on leadership, Christina continues to push the boundaries of what a modern jewelry brand can be. Through EASE, she is redefining grill culture by combining craftsmanship, dental awareness, and bold personal expression.

Her mission is simple: build innovative products, challenge outdated industry norms, and create new lanes where creativity and function coexist.
