With an overabundance of beauty products on the market it’s easy to be overwhelmed. Every day we’re inundated with some “hot” new product, but the formulations are not always fitting for a melanin queen. Lip gloss is having a renaissance right now, showing up on runways for many spring and fall 2019 collections. But not all glosses are made for beautiful black lips, especially when it comes to color. The same can also be the case for traditional lipsticks and stains. We all know that they aren’t always well-built for fuller lips that need moisture, or color-matched to fit our array of skin colors and tones.

With these brands, you can rest assured. Created by us, for us, and with our beauty nuances and intricacies in mind (dark pigment, fullness, propensity for dryness, you name it) these lip brands offer quality products that won’t run you your entire check, and will easily become your favorite mouth-pieces.
