Here Are the Indie Beauty Brands to Try ASAP, According to Other Indie Brand Founders

Blk + Grn stands out from the crowd in a big way. Rather than sell its own line of products, Dr. Kristian Henderson created it as an online marketplace brimming with Black-owned and created brands to support and discover — in the beauty category and beyond. "The BLK + GRN marketplace was designed to not only be a one-stop shop for all natural, nontoxic, and high-quality products, but to also elevate Black artisans and their goods," she said. "Every item available at blkgrn.com is my favorite, as the array of carefully curated items we highlight provides for every need — from bath + body to beauty, grocery to skin care, mom + baby to men's goods, hair, hygiene and home . . . we have it all."
