Supporting black-owned businesses is a year-round practice, not limited to black history month or small business events on Saturdays. In fact, it's the biggest shopping season of the year, and it's the perfect time to showcase your favorite black private label (or the brand you want to support).

If you are looking for the perfect holiday gift, there are plenty of black-owned businesses here, from candles and skin care products to plush blankets and luxury handbags.

This year, check out our five favorite picks from Telfar, Brandon Blackwood, Forvr Mood, Autumn Adeigbo and Topicals.

It’s no secret that Telfar has taken the fashion world by storm in the past few years. Its bags are sold out in a few seconds. In 2021, the brand founded by Liberian Asian American fashion designer Telfar Clemens launched a series in collaboration with UGG. 

The comfortable fashion collection includes bags, boots, hoodies, etc., but this cotton-blend blanket embroidered with the logo stands out. It is elegantly rolled up and wrapped in an artificial leather strap, measuring 127 x 178 cm. If you have a friend or relative who loves everything in Telfar, then this is the perfect gift that will give you cool points in the coming years.

Brandon Blackwood is another fashion brand that finally deserves it. In 2015, its namesake and founder launched the brand's four-piece series. Since then, the Brandon Blackwood empire has grown rapidly, and its collection now includes everything from handbags and suitcases to backpacks and wallets.

The brand's medium Kuei denim crossbody bag is one of its best-selling products, and surprisingly it is still in stock. It matches perfectly with everything from jeans to little black dresses and is the perfect year-round accessory.

If you are shopping for candle lovers, then Forvr Mood's sultry and sexy scent is a must buy. Jackie Aina, the founder of the brand and a popular YouTube beauty blogger, described Forvr Mood as a lifestyle brand that makes "luxury" affordable-she certainly provides these candles.

With names such as Cuffing Season, Cookie Coma, Floral Play, Sip Happens, Skinny Dipped, etc., it can be said that there is no candle like this on the market. In fact, this Forvr Mood Candle Duo set is available at Sephora and it smells as good as it looks. The aroma of iced Prosecco is blended with pomegranate and gardenia, white cedar and bergamot, which will make your living space smell expensive.

Autumn Adeigbo is a black designer with a degree in economics from the prestigious HBCU Spelman College and a degree in fashion design from the prestigious Parsons School of Design. Today, she owns a fashion empire, known for her colorful, stylish and avant-garde designs that stand out from the crowd.

The knotted floral headband of this Adeigbo series adopts the brand's eye-catching and vibrant beauty, with more neutral colors. This instantly adds a touch of color to any outfit, making it the perfect gift.

The origin story behind the brand Topicals co-founded by Gen-Z-women and Black is a story in the book. In August 2018, Olamide Olowe, then 21, began a mission to create a skin care brand for women to cope with chronic skin diseases after struggling to find problems that would help their skin. 

After collaborating with Shea Moisture to create a beauty brand called Shea Girl, Olowe has the business acumen to make her dream come true. In just two years, she established contact with co-founder Claudia Teng, and the two jointly raised US$2.6 million in venture capital funds to develop Topicals.

Fortunately, it all paid off because it is still one of the most popular and sold-out skin care brands in the Gen Z and millennial markets. One of its outstanding products is Like Butter Mask, which instantly soothes and calms dry, sensitive and eczema-prone skin.
