Soultanicals

After several unpleasant experiences with her daughter’s unruly hair, Ayo Ogun created Soultanicals to make detangling a breeze. The company has created cruelty-free, vegan hair care products that are made with African botanicals for gorgeously moisturized hair and skin. While hair products are the focus, this Black-owned beauty brand is also making waves with amazing body care options such as scrubs, polishes and soaps.

For smooth and manageable hair, try their Chebe-Ginger Supa Deep Conditioner. Perfectly pH balanced, this deep conditioner works hard to moisturize, cleanse, and nourish delicate follicles.

Pholk Beauty

Described as “soul food for the skin”, Pholk Beauty was created by Georgia-born Niambi Cacchioli to provide women of color with affordable skin care. Struggling to find treatments that suited her skin, Cacchioli began to create her own skincare products using ideas from African beauty culture. These black beauty products are all-natural, vegan and made in the United States, ensuring a high-quality production process. Using ingredients like hibiscus oil, moringa and jojoba oil, these lines aim to heal the skin from within.

The Daily Detox Face Wash is famed for its balancing properties and ability to restore healthy skin. Perfect for use post-workout, this powerful cleanser balances inflamed skin and works to prevent ingrown hairs from forming.

Loving Culture

Loving Culture was founded back in 2013 by Mary-Andree Ardouin-Gurrier. Realizing that holistic living was more important than her constant use of chemical straighteners and toxic products, she began investigating unique Indian spices to create hair oils and products that were both effective and toxic-free.

Their Revitalizing Hair Oil comprises organic cold-pressed coconut oil, castor oil, organic apricot oil, eucalyptus oil, argan oil, and cayenne pepper extract for a nourishing product that is suitable for all types.
