Actions speak louder than words.
After reflecting and going dark for a week in solidarity with the Black Lives Matter movement, I didn’t want that to be the end of my active participation in lifting up the black community. So today, I am sharing with you 29 incredible black-owned businesses that I’m obsessed with & have personally shopped. Please save this list & share with a friend, as it is so important to be a conscious consumer and diversify where you shop!

2020 has been a wild ride and we’re only half-way through. Let’s make conscious efforts to change our perspectives internally and take actionable steps to support the black community. To quote the inspirational Harriet Tubman, “Always remember, you have within you the strength, the patience, and the passion to reach for the stars to change the world.” Thank you for using this as a resource and I hope that you will share it with those around you and continue to add to the list!
Shown above are some of the nail polishes I purchased from Mented for my Bridesmaid Proposal Boxes as gifts & I absolutely love!
