February 1 marks the start of Black Heritage Month, also known as Black History Month. Intended as period to honor and reflect on the history, adversity, and triumph of Black Americans, Black History Month is a time of learning. Not all of us can be teachers, writers, or lecturers, but we can always share what we do have expertise in.
Since you’re here, you probably already know that said expertise just so happens to be in shopping. But it’s not just “shopping” in general: Right now, we’re specifically highlighting six must-have beauty and skincare brands — Kubra Kay, LUV + CO, Ginger + Honey, Dion Michaels, Beauty and the City, and Okoko — that all have Black founders.
Below, you can learn a little about each one, and discover some new-to-you products that you’ll probably wonder how you ever went without. Scroll on to meet your future favorite soaps, serums, lipsticks, and more, and support Black creators along the way.
