1. FORVR MOOD
There’s no such thing as having too many hair accessories! And in this case, beauty and lifestyle guru Jackie Aina understands the assignment. Even though FORVR MOOd is known for its luxurious, deliciously scented candles, Ms. Aina has come all the way through with silk offerings. With a stunning collection of Pure Silk Headbands ($28.00, Forvrmood.com) and Pure Silk Pillowcases ($49, Forvrmood.com), you’ll be able to keep your edges safe from snags and tangling. It’s a must-have!
2. Dosso Beauty
For folks looking for a one-stop-shop for hair care, skincare, and beard care, you’ll want to tap into Dosso Beauty! Known as the brainchild of Kadidja Dosso, this brand is the epitome of Black Girl Magic. Not only are these products gentle, rest assured you’re using top-quality finds that will do your beauty game justice. My personal favorite is the Pre-stretched Hypoallergenic Braiding Hair ($6.99, Dossobeauty.com). A far cry from other offerings on the market, this essential is lightweight, flame-retardant, anti-bacterial, itch-free, and has a soft texture. You can’t go wrong!
3. Black Girl Sunscreen
If you haven’t been using sunscreen in your beauty routine, it’s time to make a change. Contrary to popular belief, melanin doesn’t protect against UVA/UVB sun rays. Sunscreen is required to prevent sun damage that can contribute to signs of aging and, worse, skin cancer. This is where Black Girl Sunscreen comes into play. Boasting a nourishing formula of jojoba and avocado, this product soothes, softens, moisturizes, and provides the maximum level of sun protection. Stock up, folks!
4. Fenty Beauty
A mean makeup game and flawless skin are an absolute must. Thanks to Rihanna’s Fenty Beauty, you can have it all. Offering a mix of beauty essentials along with a few surprises, including Hydrating Body Bundles and the Gloss Bomb Heat, it’s easy to get lost in Fenty’s product roster.
5. Pear Nova
Calling all nail aficionados! When it comes to achieving a top-notch manicure, Pear Nova falls at the top of the list. Created by Rachel James, this impressive line offers a mix of nail lacquers, gel lacquers, nail care, and lash care products that are in a league of their own. This brand is vegan, cruelty-free, and 10free, which is right on the money for those looking to use chemical-free products.
6. Organic Bath Co.
Sometimes, simple is better. With Organic Bath Co., its award-winning bath and body care line features organic and natural ingredients designed to keep you clean from neck to toe. Choose everything from gentle body scrubs to face balms to bring your routine back to the basics while adding some pampering into the mix.
7. Beneath Your Mask
Opt for the luxurious route in your beauty routine with the help of Beneath Your Mask. This brand offers an extensive line of skin, body, and hair products, all made from potent, organic, and wild-crafted botanicals meant to soothe, nourish, and give you TLC. It’s never a bad idea to go the natural route, and this brand serves as the perfect example.

Creativity is simple with natural hair. You can try to find your favorite style or add a head wrap into the equation.
