Aunty Kelechi's Favorite Skincare Items: JACQ's Skin Care
Hey guys I am back!! This past week was blackout Tuesday and many people observed not spending any money or only buying black. A you guys know we are not new to this, we are true to this. Its been a small break since I dropped a blog post, well guys I am back with a new Black Owned skincare company and my favorite go to items from them.
JACQ's
The JACQ's Skincare company that is black owned and woman owned. I an not sure as to where or when it was founded but I am sure that it was founded by Barbara Jacques. After discovering the she had an ovarian tumor as well as being pregnant she turned to non-toxic solutions for skincare.
Jacq's products are 100% vegan, for women of color, and all organic. They understand that skincare isn't a one size fits all and should be tailored to your skin. Their products are locally sourced in South Florida and then handmade. They focus on fruits, roots and flowers as the sources used for their products.
How I found them
As you guys know I stay on the gram looking for companies to try and share with you guys. The IG Algorithm knows this as well and they popped up on my discover page. I headed to their page and started checking out some their products. I saw the natural products and was ready to try. As you guys know I keep my skincare products as well as my hair care products on rotation in order to prevent my skin from hitting a plateau with a products.
