On My Beauty Wishlist: Salt.Xo

Image
Greetings, fellow beauty lovers! This Thursday finds us hoping everyone had a wonderful week and is feeling ready for the weekend ahead. As a plus-sized woman, I take my hygiene very seriously, including my feminine care. I’ve been following Salt.Xo for a long time and have always loved supporting Black woman-owned businesses that offer products that truly work. I just wanted to share this brand in case you haven’t heard of it yet. Jhalesa Seymour, Founder and CEO of Salt.xo, and she often say I didn’t find Salt.xo—Salt.xo found her. The company was born during a time of personal discovery. Before creating a single product, she spent seven months researching and studying natural ingredients and their healing properties for skin, hair, and of course, the yoni. In 2018, with just $67 and a vision, she launched her natural feminine hygiene brand while attending the University of Central Florida. Her journey began with a personal struggle familiar to many women discomfort caused by product...

Happy Wednesday, fashion friends! As we count down the days until the weekend, I’m feeling so thankful for this blog and the chance it gives me to connect with like-minded people. I stumbled upon the handbag brand Esha Soni while scrolling through Instagram, and I just had to share because that’s what good friends do. Esha Soni is recognized for her refined design and innovative leadership at iconic American brands like GHURKA, Michael Kors Collection, Ralph Lauren, Mansur Gavriel, and Proenza Schouler. Born and raised in Mumbai, India, she later moved to New York to study Design at FIT, with a stint abroad in Florence, Italy.

 Hello and Happy Friday to all of my fellow fashion lovers, I hope that you all had a great work week and are gearing up for your weekend. One of my favorite compliments to receive is, “You smell good.” I’ve been eyeing a fragrance from the Black-owned perfume brand Chris Collins ever since I spotted it in Essence Magazine, so I decided to put together this blog post today for you to check out this amazing brand for yourselves. Chris Collins’ path into the world of luxury and fragrance started well before he gained international recognition. His father’s pride in always smelling good was where Chris first discovered the magic of scent. It wasn’t just a daily habit—it was a transformative experience. Fragrance became his key to confidence and elegance, sparking the passion that would define his career.  As a young adult, Chris moved to Harlem, a neighborhood brimming with culture, history, and Black excellence, where he began his career in fashion. Harlem became the backdrop fo...
