The senseless and sad murder of George Floyd has triggered a lot worldwide. This is about justice and equality of all races. Therefore today a post about great black-owned beauty brands, founded by black beautiful women. You can support these beauty brands, not just now but forever.
The Lip Bar
Melissa Butler told Forbes her vision: “Challenge the standard of beauty”. This black beauty was rejected in Shark Tank, mbut has nevertheless managed to realize her dream with The Lip Bar. The edgy lipsticks (including the colors purple, green and blue) contain only natural ingredients and are 100% vegan. This brand has grown rapidly and has all the products for a full-face make-up look.
Fenty Beauty
Most of you know this brand, founded by Rihanna. She launched with Fenty Beauty a wide range of foundation shades with formulas that work for all skin types. From the award-winning Pro Filt’r Foundation with no less than 50 shades, to everyone’s must-have Fenty lip gloss, Gloss Bomb.
Mented Cosmetics
Mented Cosmetics is specially designed for colored women. Founders KJ Miller and Amanda E. Johnson wondered why it’s so hard to find a nude lipstick with their dark skin. Started by perfecting the perfect nude lipstick and lip liner, now this brand has grown tremendously and also has foundation sticks, eyeshadows, blushes and nail polish. All in beautiful nude shades.
Janet and Jo.
After her mother and grandmother battled breast cancer, founder Kendra Woolridge wanted to create something better. With the brand Janet and Jo. she has marketed products that her loved ones could also use, so without chemicals, vegan and not tested on animals. Nail products that would not harm health. The colors flatter every skin tone from sunny yellow to warm pink.
OUI The People
Founder Karen Young launched OUI Shave in 2015 but changed this name in OUI The People in order to be more gender neutral. The brand has everything for the perfect shave. The star product is the bikini masks that moisturize and soothe your bikini area after shaving. The razor blades are available in matte black, matte gold and rose gold.
Pat McGrath Labs
The last one I want to mention, but certainly not the least. Founder Pat McGrath is a highly respected makeup artist and has worked with Armani Beauty, CoverGirl and Max Factor. Her eponymous brand, Pat McGrath Labs has the most amazing packaging ever made and each product guarantees an iconic look.
