    Wow! I had no idea about all of these brands 😍

    Buttercreme Beauty- “The dessert for your body”, is just that.. it smells wonderful, is natural, and keeps me moisturized. I have blindly tried a few scents and haven’t been disappointed. My favorite scents/products are peaches n’ cream body butter and body scrub, honey brown sugar body butter, and the lip butters. The body glaze oil also makes for a nice foot massage oil. My skin loves it.

    OMG! This is an amazing list, I have shopped a few of these brands but can’t wait to shop more. ElleJaeEssentials products are amazing, they have everything from the lotions, scrubs, oils, and my fave is the the travel size items. I’m currently wearing Grown A$$ Woman & it not only smells amazing but it’s natural too. I’m also a Glamaholic gal as well, the brand has quality and affordable fashions but also Mia Ray is a great influencer for black women. All women should be able to have luxury items and these two ladies make it happen.
