7 Black brands to shop for Mother’s Day

From skincare to jewelry to sweets and more, we’ve gathered seven different Black-owned brands worth shopping this Mother’s Day.

Black motherhood has never been one thing. It is defined by joy and, at times, survival. It is softness and hard lessons. It is loving, messy, expansive, radical, beautiful, empowering, protective, and loud. And frankly, while there is no real way to thank our mothers for the work of raising and loving us into who we are, we try anyway.

While we can and should celebrate our mamas year-round, Mother’s Day arrives each spring as a reminder of just how extraordinary it is to have one in our lives. And not with just any gift, but with something chosen with care. Something that reflects her, and, when possible for extra meaning, something sourced from a Black-owned brand.

With the holiday arriving next Sunday, May 10, we have gathered seven different Black-owned brands offering everything from Mother’s Day staples like bouquets and candles to stationery, postpartum wellness kits, and more.
