Black-Owned Beauty Holiday Gift Guide
Black-Owned Beauty Gift Guide: My Favorite Black Woman-Owned Brands
As we enter the cozy holiday season, I wanted to take a moment to share some of my favorite beauty products from amazing Black woman-owned businesses. These aren’t just brands I’ve discovered—I’ve personally used and love them. From hair care to makeup, these products have become part of my daily routine, and I think they’ll become part of yours too!
I’m always on the lookout for great products created by talented Black women who understand the unique challenges we face in our beauty routines. So, let me introduce you to these 6 incredible Black-owned brands I love, and you'll love too, this gift giving season.
1. On the Edge Baby Hair
If you’re serious about your edges, you need this in your life. The On the Edge Baby Hair brush is my secret weapon for keeping my baby hairs laid all day. It’s gentle, easy to use, and makes styling effortless. Whether you're rocking a sleek bun or just want a little extra finesse, this brush is a must-have in your toolkit. I have like 3 - the gold one is my favorite.
Side note: The founder actually has a patent for the design - so if you see something similar and it doesn't have OTE, know it's an imitation. Buy on Amazon for 12.99.
2. Glow by Daye
Listen, fall is the time to protect that moisture. The air is getting drier, and our curls need all the love. If you don’t have a satin bonnet in your routine, let me put you on to Glow by Daye. Their satin bonnets are designed to protect your hair while you sleep, preserving moisture and reducing breakage. I’ve been using their bonnets for a while now and even have a few in rotation for my daughter, and I can honestly say my curls are thanking me for it. Plus, they’re super comfy, cute, and stain the whole night! Click HERE to purchase on Amazon for 19.99.

3. Donna’s Recipe
Donna's Recipe is a fall must-have in my hair care routine! It changed my entire hair care routine. I use the full line, and the results speak for themselves—my hair feels stronger, more hydrated, and overall healthier. I don't know what is in these products, but they have made my hair so much more manageable. If you’ve been searching for products that are packed with vegan ingredients and are perfect for Black hair, this is it. From the oils to the conditioners, every step feels like self-care.

4. WRAPTstyle
You know I had to plug my own brand, WRAPTstyle! Our satin-lined turbans and XXL satin scrunchies are a dream for thick hair, locs, and braids. These accessories help you maintain moisture (so important in the fall), reduce friction, and protect your hair from breakage. Plus, they’re cute and cozy for this season—whether you’re running errands or lounging at home, you’ll look fab and keep your hair healthy. Check them out HERE on Amazon for only 19.99.

Applying makeup has never been easier with the Kimmy Kouture Taco Sponge. This sponge is perfect for seamless makeup application, and it’s a game changer for getting that flawless finish. And their light-up makeup bag? Perfect for on-the-go touch-ups, especially in those moments when you need to quickly get glam! Buy the Taco Sponge on her website for only 18.99.

6. The Lip Bar – Matte Liquid Lipstick
Let me tell you about The Lip Bar’s Matte Liquid Lipstick in Bawse Lady—it’s a staple in my makeup bag and the perfect shade of red for brown skin. I wore this lipstick to a Boyz II Men concert and, let me tell you, I was singing my heart out with a mask (we still a little COVID conscious over here) on for two hours. When I took off the mask, my lipstick hadn’t moved an inch—not a single smudge- and somehow my lips weren't dry. This formula is magic! If you’re looking for a long-lasting, pigmented lip that can withstand anything, this is the one. Get your new favorite lipstick on Amazon for only 13.99.
