Black-Owned Beauty on Daytime Chicago

We’ve got all the black beauty stars you need to check out below. These brands were created by black entrepreneurs who had a beauty woe that needed a fix. All of these creators built their brands from the bottom up and have so much more growth to bring us.

Personally, I’m obsessed with all things Jennifer Hicks. You can tell she puts so much love into whipping up every one of her homemade formulas. The best part is to read the reviews on the site. She has saved and helped so many with their skin woes.

Chicago native Jennifer Hicks founded this coveted beauty brand in 2015 after finding nothing worked on her eczema. With a background as a paralegal, she was prone to deep research and found that most of the products out there had known irritants. So, the Olije Eczema Butter was invented, and many more hand made and packaged healers. All products are natural, organic, and don’t have any of the known nasties including alcohol and fragrance. Since Olije’s beginning in 2015, Jeniffer has produced more skus that deliver from head to toe all out of her Chicago home.

Another skin savior I wanted to feature is Sylvia Brownlee. She has taken her holistic approach to acne as an aesthetician and brought it to the masses with Brownlee & Co. The brand has an Acne Treatment Kit that targets and heals naturally. Check out the amazing before and after images on the brand’s site.

Annagjid “Kee” Taylor is a bright star in the hair game. She is the owner of Deeper Than Hair – Philly’s 1st natural hair care salon and creator of Shear Genius hair products. Her First Class to Jamaica Black Castor Oil is one of the most versatile products for the scalp and hair. It’s known to promote hair growth, moisturize dry hair, eliminate dandruff and itchy scalp, strengthen thin hair, and prevent hair breakage to improve the overall health of your hair. Kee is certainly busy as a salon owner and entrepreneur but has even found time to write a book. All Hair is Good Hair tells the story of 10-year-old learning to love her natural God-given hair.

Another of Chicago’s Own, Dr. Few couldn’t be skipped when we chat about black-owned beauty. He’s literally built a beauty and wellness empire in Chicago which is now global. His Afore Beauty is a luxurious collection designed with a hybrid of science and nature. The Sheer Moisture works on all skin tones and is literally a lightweight bath of nourishment to skin.
