To celebrate Black History Month, we're sharing a few of our favorite Black-owned beauty brands. Perfect your base routine with these POC friendly products before applying The Golden Touch Foundation! Get your skincare journal ready:

1. First step is to cleanse. You want to make sure you have a clean base to work with before applying any makeup. This will get rid of any excess dirt and makeup your skin may be holding on to. Cleanse your face with Absolute Joi's Hydrating Gel Foam Cleanser!

2. After cleansing, make sure to apply a hydrating serum to lock in the moisture.  Katani Skin's Soleil Day Serum helps moisturize and protect your skin from external factors.

3. Moisturizing your face is another key step in your skincare routine. Regardless of skin type, moisturizing your skin everyday will help prevent extreme dryness and oiliness. In turn, this will protect against the development of acne and breakouts. Try our Shani Darden's Weightless Oil-Free Moisturizer for a hydrating glow.

4. One last step before you apply your foundation: Sunscreen. Protect your skin from harsh UV rays and signs of aging with sunscreen. We love Black Girl Sunscreen because of the glow and no white cast!

Let's support black owned beauty brands this month and every month! Let us know your favorites so that we can keep testing and recommending.
