MY NEW OBSESSION! I absolutely love this product, it has become my favorite lip balm by a long shot. It is soft, hydrating and long lasting. My favorite shade is the new Sakura Shaved Ice. Did I mention it's black woman owned?
EADEM Lip Balms

A cult-favorite foundation with inclusive shade range by Rihanna. It gives a smooth finish and matches a wide range of undertones for deeper complexions.
Fenty Beauty Pro Filt'r Longwear Foundation

One of the most flattering glosses for brown skin. My two favorites are “Fu$$y” and “Hot Chocolit Fantasy”!
Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Lip Gloss

Available in 20+ shades, this full coverage concealer blends seamlessly and brightens under-eyes without the ashy look. Not to mention, its black-owned by the legendary makeup artist, Pat McGrath!
Pat McGrath Labs Full Coverage Concealer

A black-owned “holy grail” of mine! This viral product blurs pores and controls oil while still looking natural on textured or combination skin!
Danessa Myricks Yummy Skin Blurring Balm Powder

This viral duo creates a warm bronzed sculpted look. From soft glam to full glam, this product gets the job done effortlessly!
PATRICK TA - Major Sculpt Creme Contour & Powder Bronzer Duo

This is an absolute must have if you are like me and don't care to wear makeup everyday. This lightweight skin tint gives a smooth blurred finish for a “fresh face” look on melanin-rich skin!
Fenty Beauty Eaze Drop Blurring Skin Tint

I live by this product for the perfect smooth bright undereye without the ashy look. It's lightweight and longlasting and blends into the skin perfectly.

I use this everyday! It’s a thick cream but not heavy and melts into your skin like literal butter! It leaves my skin feeling silky smooth and smells so good (doesn’t clash with my perfume)!
Butta Drop Whipped Oil Body Cream - Fenty Skin
Â
Dark spots have exited the chat! As a girl with some hyperpigmentation, I love this lightweight serum. It’s on the higher end in price, but it’s so worth it!
Caudalie Brightening Serum
Â
As someone with dry skin, this moisturizer is a holy grail! It’s creamy, yet lightweight and provides long lasting moisture! There’s no SPF, so I do layer it with sunscreen.
Kiehl's Ultra Facial Moisturizing Cream with Squalane
Â
I love to use these for acne scarring after I get my monthly pimple! I can’t control where the pimple appears, but I can control how it heals!
Topicals Faded Dark Spot Patches
Â
This is a great alternative for higher end brightening serums! I always keep a tube stocked in my vanity so I never have to worry about not having even skin!
Topicals Faded Brightening Serum

My favorite fragrance from Jackie Aina’s collection! This fruity and floral scent is perfect for everyday wear and can be layered beautifully!
