I'll be honest, I wasn't always a fan of sunscreen. Yes, I know everyone can develop skin cancer, but my love for the sun and my fear of a white cast on my skin made me overlook the need for it. But when I went to sunny Napa Valley for a week, I realized... I absolutely needed some protection for my skin. This sunscreen saved my skin during that scorching week, and I was even able to use it on my face as a primer for my makeup without any concerns. It wasn’t greasy or heavy and didn’t leave any white residue after application. It also helped that my best friend (who’s lighter-skinned than I am) had packed her Black Girl Sunscreen, too, and spoke highly of it before I even tried it. Of course, it’s not only for women of color — it works for all skin types and can be used by anyone!
Promising review: "As women of color, we often worry about sunscreen leaving that ashy/white cast or making us look oily, but this sunscreen doesn’t do either. It blends into the skin quickly, doesn’t have that strong sunscreen smell, and a little goes a long way. I highly recommend!" —Kayla

30. A foaming wash created specifically for vulvas, designed by someone who has one, using a cruelty-free, plant-based formula to help you stay fresh.
While the vagina is capable of cleaning itself, the vulva isn't quite the same. That's why I rely on this wash. When I used it regularly, I definitely noticed a "difference"—much less irritation and a touch of relief after a gentle scrub with sugar (#24 in this post!). The product is crafted with natural ingredients like coconut oil, lavender, grapefruit seed extract, and apple cider vinegar. For those with more sensitive skin, there's also a Sensitive Foaming Wash.
Positive reviews: "I've been using this wash every day, even though I never used feminine washes before. I've been using it for about four to five years now. It works great. I love the scent, the fresh feeling, and the foam. Occasionally the pump doesn't work, but I keep an extra one just in case. This has become a must-have in my home." —Paddy Monthly

I absolutely love this bar so much that I have it on subscription with my Billie razors. I use it on my legs and underarms before shaving to prep my skin. I also use it on non-shaving days all over, and it's been a lifesaver for when my skin feels stressed or dry and really needs some exfoliation. The lather is amazing (especially since it's not... soap?), and despite its bar shape, it's super easy to use because the exfoliating bits help you hold it as you work with it.
Positive reviews: "The body buffer is easy to hold, exfoliates perfectly, and smells incredible!" —Gabriela B.
"I was really impressed by how much lather it creates! I get ingrown hairs on my thighs and underarms, so I decided to give this a shot, and it’s become a fantastic addition to my skincare routine. A must-try for anyone who hasn’t yet!" —Paige C.
