It’s that time of year again and we don’t know about you but this year more than ever we want to give our money to small businesses. To make it a little easier we’ve put together this Gift Guide of Skincare brands that we think you’ll love but also are all small business!
Esker
Their mission is simple, to provide a healthy and luxurious way to treat yourself at home. They have a range of products under $50 that are sure to make any skincare lover shout with joy. Personally, we have our eye on the Firming Bath Kit #HintHintSanta
See their Gift Guide here.
Ayele & Co.
Formerly known as Bahi Cosmetics and created in a college dorm room, licensed esthetician and makeup artist Danielle Bahi has grown this plant-based brand and has a big cult following. Especially with those who are prone to acne with her Sunflower Sweets Serum. It is the perfect stocking stuffer!
Oui the People
Oui the People is dedicated to producing body care with mindful messaging that rejects perfection and champions individuality.
Waxing Kara
This is a pretty unique business and one that we are all for! Waxing Kara was created by Beekeeper Kara who makes all-natural skincare products with the honey she harvests. The best part is as honey is a natural preservative, so many of the products she makes don’t expire.
Pholk Beauty
Pholk was founded by Niambi Cacchioli with a mission to harness the African Diaspora’s beauty traditions into a plant-based skincare brand that celebrates women of color.
Andalou
This is a pick from Fat Girls Guide Editor-in-cheif Annette who had this to say about Anadalou. “To me they are a local brand. Created in my hometown. I found it at a natural beauty store one day. And later learned a friend from high school worked for them! I live for the 1000 Roses pearl exfoliator. I have sensitive skin so their sensitive line is best for me. They also have travel sizes which are essential!”
That’s It
We are always on the lookout for small businesses to highlight so if there’s one you love, make sure to comment below and tell us all about them!
