Black Owned Beauty Brands - A Detailed Overlook

14/4/2021

 
Picture
For many years, a lot of major brands failed to be inclusive of all skin colours when it came to the Beauty Industry. While improvements have been made, we still have a long way to go to see adequate beauty representation for ALL women.

W Magazine says:
"As it stands now, Pat McGrath and Fenty Beauty are two of the seven Black-owned brands sold at Sephora—out of a whopping 290 brands total. That means black-owned beauty brands make up less than three percent of products sold at the retailer". Sephora have since taken part in "The 15 Percent Pledge", ​in which they pledged to give 15 percent of their shelf space to products from Black-owned brands at each store. A welcomed small step in the right direction!

​
Below I have listed some of my favourite Black Owned Beauty Brands!

Fenty

Fenty says:
"Rihanna was inspired to create Fenty Beauty after years of experimenting with the best-of-the-best in beauty—and still seeing a void in the industry for products that performed across all skin types and tones. She launched a makeup line “so that people everywhere would be included,” focusing on a wide range of traditionally hard-to-match skin tones, creating formulas that work for all skin types, and pinpointing universal shades."

Pat Mc Grath

Pat McGrath says:
"This is the golden age of makeup. PAT McGRATH LABS is my Golden Revolution. The entire planet is just as cosmetics obsessed as I’ve always been. Makeup is a movement. Makeup is mesmerizing. Makeup is major. Mantra-esque, three words have repeated over and over in my mind ever since I was young. Obsession. Inspiration. Addiction. Those words became my guiding principles, my manifesto as I brought this brand to life".
