Constance Beauty
"Constance Beauty was initially established as Connie Transform in 2016 after our founder, Costance Bhebhe, was tired of being unable to find lipstick shades to compliment her skin-tone. A conversation with her cousin initially sparked the idea when she joked, 'you should start your own line of lipstick shades that look good on women of colour.' That joke lead to the launch of a liquid matte lipstick range and a now ever-evolving product line catered to women of colour. All products are vegan and cruelty free, from matte lipsticks, glosses, lashes, cosmetic contact lenses, etc.

Mi Beauty
"Its easy to forget that skin is an organ, alive, growing and changing every second. Many skincare products contain a range of toxins and chemicals including sodium lauryl sulphate (SLS) which has been linked to heath issues such as contact dermatitis. Using natural plant based formulations that are rich in vital skin nutrients and antioxidants, you can help nourish the skin. By introducing an organic skincare range we are raising awareness of the benefits of going natural. Organic skincare products work in harmony with the skin, not against it."
