Refresh Your Skincare Routine with these 5 Latina-Owned Brands

Skincare products

With most of the country still dealing with frigid temperatures, we know your skin might be in need of some serious TLC. We’re here to help you give your skin the amor it needs with some amazing Latina-owned brands. Skincare has become a ritual for many as we find ways to unplug from our daily routines and the bombardment of social media and the news.



When you’re facing the mirror and processing how you’ll start your day or reflect on how your day went, it’s also the perfect time to reflect and honor all of your feelings, uninterrupted. As you’re renewing your skin, it’s also a time to reset your thoughts and give yourself a chance to get a clean slate (pun intended).

Here are some Latina-owned brands that will help add some rejuvenation into your skin and your life!

Brujita Skincare

It’s easy to be obsessed with a brand like Brujita Skincare. Their conscious skincare brand celebrates natural products while celebrating misfits who enjoy beauty products that are as unique as they are. Brujita’s branding, their authenticity, and their community involvement makes them a brand you’ll religiously use.

Reina Skincare

After suffering from acne for years, the founder of Reina Skincare created her own brand that includes serums, oils, toners, exfoliators and more. As an Afro-Latina, the founder was inspired by the tropics and created a brand that will transport you into a tropical paradise.

BelaDoce is all about the glow and we are not mad about it! In fact, we’re asking for more glow that is reflective of a healthy, happy skincare routine. Created by a seasoned skincare professional, BelaDoce brings beautiful products that work, to your everyday skincare needs.

Religion and Superstition among Latinas: Are they Mutually Exclusive?

I often wondered how my abuelita could be so religious, praying all the time and never missing a Sunday at church. Yet there she was, sticking a knife in the ground whenever storm clouds rolled in, thinking it would "shoo the rain away." She'd give me the side-eye for my magic wand tattoo and believing in the power of manifestation, but would be the first to blame trickster “chaneques” when stuff went missing, and hang ceramic sheep on the door to supposedly "bring in the cash."

When I was younger, I found it to be somewhat hypocritical of her. Now, I just think it’s funny and sort of beautiful how our ancestors and surroundings have shaped our beliefs in such unique ways.
