7 Black-Owned Beauty Brands To Add To Your Makeup Bag
If the overwhelming success of Queen Rih's Fenty Beauty line has taught us anything, the world is ready for truly inclusive beauty. This Black History Month, add a little color to your makeup bag by supporting some fab black-owned beauty brands! Read on for Amber Rose's 15 favorite black-owned beauty brands!
Pat McGrath Labs
Renowned makeup artist Pat McGrath launched her first product in 2015, and she hasn't looked back since. In fact, last year McGrath beat out Kylie Cosmetics to become a (truly self-made) billion-dollar company. Go Pat! https://www.instagram.com/p/Br-pVY5FAcG/
Iman Cosmetics
Founded by supermodel and beauty icon Iman in 1994, Iman Cosmetics formulates luxe skincare and cosmetics specifically for women of color. Their foundation is offered in 16 shades! https://www.instagram.com/p/BsQnNUnnsbe/
Coloured Raine
The go-to makeup brand when you wanna break hearts and snatch wigs. Coloured Raine is known for their richly pigmented eye and cheek colors and gorgeous, full-coverage liquid lipsticks. Coloured Rain even made us our very own custom eyeshadow - Goalz - back in July! https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWihWnHBZy/
Juvia's Place
Founded by Nigerian-born Chichi Eburu, Juvia's Place offers makeup inspired by African culture and art. The hero of their product line is their collection of vibrant, highly-pigmented eyeshadow palettes. Our fave picks? The Nubian palette and the Sahara palette. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsENsPlnVoh/
Mixed Chicks
Mixed Chicks is starting a curly revolution! Formulated especially for those with curly, kinky, mixed hair, Mixed Chicks is changing the game for curls everywhere. We're such fans, we actually included their amazing Morning After Redefining Foam in our July Box! https://www.instagram.com/p/BoMEXImHs4n/
Beauty Bakerie
The longest-staying liquid lip (in the most delicious shades imaginable). Beauty Bakerie features a wide range of confections from lipstick to eye shadow to concealer. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsUE5KvlVVj/
Fenty Beauty
This list wouldn't be complete without Rih's game-changing makeup line. Fenty Beauty launched in September 2017 with an astounding 40-shade foundation range, plus bomb highlighters made for amping up the glow on all skintones. https://www.instagram.com/p/BsbV_4pgRR0/
