We're practically at the end of July, but it's not too late to note that it's National Black Family Month. Shopping Black-owned, family-owned brands is just one of the ways to celebrate Black Family Month and invest in the next generation. The three brands here specialize in non-toxic, clean-formula skincare and haircare. One, Alodia, recently joined Pharrell Williams's Black Ambition Circles, a peer-to-peer mentorship program facilitated by industry leaders.
Eve Milan
With all products priced below $100, Eve Milan is a favorite among clients who appreciate affordable salon quality. Founder Eden Gilliam has been a working esthetician for 10 years and created this line to incorporate ingredients into products that she found lacking in other skincare on the market. Whether clients are looking for extra hydration during the winter months, exfoliation, or improving their complexion from the inside out, Eve Milan offers a wide range of options to choose from. Best-sellers include Gentle Cleansing Gel, Reset Serum, Hydrating Toner, and 3-Step System Set.
