A Few Of My Favorite Things: 10 Black-Owned Brands To Shop On Black Friday  was originally published on hellobeautiful.com

1. Olivia Georgette

Shop Now

A few months ago, I reached out artist Olivia Georgette to customize my Telfar bag. Known for her love for plants and abstract art, she delivered a masterpiece of a purse that gets me more attention than I can handle. 

Olivia does more than just customize clothing. She designs handbags, wallets, and the cutest planters for all of you plant mamas out there. Keep your eyes peeled on her page for all her Black Friday sale info!

2. Introvert N The City

If you’re on a journey of self-discovery, then you’ll want to tap into the Introvert N the City store. Their Mindful Moon Affirmation Deck will give you daily reminders of how to be gentle with yourself when life starts life-ing, people start people-ing, and the world starts world-ing. You can also shop an array of sage and crystals for all your spiritual needs.

3. Diavian Naturals

Shop Now

Keeping my skin moisturized is always my primary focus as the colder months approach. Because the skin is prone to drying out during the winter, it is essential to have body butters and scrubs in your back pocket to combat rough, itchy skin. Diavian Naturals offer a range of sweet smelling products that will restore moisture, keep you smelling good, and add nutrients to your skin. For the brand’s Black Friday sale, they’re offering a discounted bundle deal of their entire collection! With new scents to sample, enjoy 35% off their bundled body butter, body scrub, bath salt, soap bar and bath bomb.

4. Absolutely, Maybe

Shop Now

Part of maintaining a beautiful outer glow, is tending to your mental and emotional health. Self-preservation is more than just great-smelling candles and yoga in the park. Addressing patterns, blockages, and traumatic experiences through therapy is a great strategy to managing your mental health. That’s why candle brand Absolutely, Maybe donates a portion of their proceeds to cover the costs of therapy sessions. This candle will not only fill the room with an alluring sage scent, your purchase will be the reason someone has a little more clarity than they did the day before.

8. Glow by Carol

Shop Now

Trial and error has taught me that the key to finalizing the perfect beauty beat is a pair of lashes. Mascara is one thing, but nothing elevates your makeup more that pronounced lashes that make your eyes pop. If you’re on the market for some top-tier lashes, then you’ve come to the right place. Shop Glow by Carol for a wide-range of reusable mink lashes, and while you’re there, pick up a few of her long-lasting, highly pigmented lip glosses. You won’t be disappointed.

9. Kyndred Joi

Shop Now

Kyndred Joi’s body butters make me feel like I took a deep-dive into a medley of fruit. I walk away smelling sweet, and feeling moisturized. Not only does the brand sell body butters, they also market an array of Sea Moss to help keep you healthy and thriving through flu season.

10. Marshay Nicole

Shop Now

Marshay Nicole is celebrating the shopping season with a Cyber Monday sale you won’t want to miss. Starting November 29th at 8am PST, enjoy 20% off your purchase along with a free gift. If you recall, I did a post about Marshay Nicole’s edge control gathering my edges in the best way possible. If I were you, I’d go ahead and add a few of those to your shopping cart before they sell out!
