In the spirit of celebrating Latinx beauty and shifting power in the industry, here are 15 Latinx-founded brands that you can support now and always.

Ceremonia

Ceremonia, which translates to ceremony in Spanish, is inspired by the Latinx traditions and rituals Babba Rivera grew up with. The line’s debut product was Aceite de Moska, a scalp oil inspired by a tried-and-true treatment originating in the Dominican Republic that restores and conditions the scalp for softer, stronger, and thicker hair.

Treslucé Beauty

Mexican-American pop superstar Becky G launched her Treslúce Beauty makeup line last summer. Since then, the brand, which is an ode to her Latinx heritage, has been widely embraced for its neon-bright pigments, fluttery falsies, and gorgeously illustrated packaging in collaboration with Mexico City–based artist Monica Loya. “Treslúce celebrates not only my Mexican-American roots, but Latinx heritage and beauty needs in general,” says Becky. “We come from diverse nationalities, cultures, and ethnicities, and I kept that in mind when developing the line.”
