In the ever-evolving world of beauty, Black-owned brands have been at the forefront of innovation, authenticity, and inclusivity. These brands are not just creating products—they're creating experiences that cater to the unique needs of diverse beauty lovers. At Beauty Edit Mayfair, we are proud to feature an array of exceptional Black-owned beauty brands that redefine the standards of hair and skincare. Today, we spotlight four outstanding brands: Charlotte Mensah, Mimi et Mina, Beauty Edit Mayfair, and Ateh Jewel Beauty.
1. Charlotte Mensah: Award-Winning Haircare for Afro and Curly Hair
Charlotte Mensah, a name synonymous with luxury haircare, has revolutionised the industry with her award-winning Manketti Oil Collection. As a celebrated hairstylist and the first Black woman to be inducted into the British Hairdressing Awards Hall of Fame, Charlotte's expertise in Afro and curly hair textures shines through her products.
The Manketti Oil Collection includes everything from shampoos and conditioners to styling creams and oils, each infused with organic Manketti Oil known for its deeply moisturising properties. These products are designed to nourish and hydrate Afro and curly hair, providing a natural shine, softness, and strength without weighing it down. Charlotte Mensah's haircare line is ideal for anyone looking to embrace their natural hair texture while maintaining optimum health and vitality. The products are also ethically sourced and environmentally friendly, aligning with a commitment to sustainability.
2. Mimi et Mina: Nourish Your Hair with the Hair and Scalp Oil Treatment
While Mimi et Mina was once a renowned luxury salon specialising in Afro and textured hair, the brand has now focused its expertise on delivering a powerful at-home haircare product: the Hair and Scalp Oil Treatment. This nourishing oil, priced at £38, is a perfect choice for those looking to maintain healthy hair and scalp from the comfort of their homes.
The Hair and Scalp Oil Treatment is formulated with a blend of natural oils that deeply moisturise the scalp, reduce dryness, and encourage healthy hair growth. This versatile product hydrates without leaving a greasy residue, making it ideal for daily use or as a deep-conditioning treatment. It also helps manage frizz, adds shine, and reduces breakage, promoting stronger, healthier hair. By continuing to focus on this signature product, Mimi et Mina offers a trusted solution for Afro and textured hair that maintains the brand's commitment to quality and care.
3. Beauty Edit Mayfair: Elevate Your Brows with the Beauty Edit Mayfair Brow Collection
Founded by renowned beauty expert Sherrille Riley, Beauty Edit Mayfair has established itself as a leader in brow care, offering expertly crafted products that cater to all your brow needs. With over 20 years of experience in the beauty industry, Sherrille is a pioneer in bespoke brow shaping and grooming, and her passion for helping clients achieve their perfect brows is reflected in the Beauty Edit Mayfair Brow Collection.
The Brow Collection is a carefully curated capsule of high-quality products designed to make professional brow styling accessible to everyone. The collection includes:

4. Ateh Jewel Beauty: Celebrate Self-Expression with Vibrant Blushes
Ateh Jewel Beauty, founded by the celebrated beauty journalist and diversity advocate Ateh Jewel, is a brand that stands for inclusivity, self-expression, and celebration. Known for her commitment to diversity in beauty, Ateh has created a line of blushes that embrace vibrant colours and versatile application, suitable for a variety of skin tones.
The Ateh Jewel Beauty Blush Collection includes three stunning blushes, each named with a unique flair:
- Watson Watermelon: A bright, juicy watermelon pink shade that delivers a fresh, playful pop of colour to the cheeks. Perfect for adding a youthful flush, this shade suits a wide range of skin tones and adds a radiant, lively finish to any look.
- Radiant Rav: A warm, golden coral blush that beautifully complements deeper skin tones, bringing a sun-kissed glow to the cheeks. Its buildable formula allows for a soft, natural wash of color or a more intense, defined finish, making it a versatile addition to any makeup routine.
