Agnes Bethel
Justice and Leslie, both military veterans, joined forces to create Agnes Bethel, a luxury shoe brand that was once dreamt up by Justice's mother but was never carried out due to her familial duties. The emerging luxury shoe designers feature unique designs with eye-popping patterns and hues that are suitable for any occasion. Leslie states that "Black people trying to do something in the fashion industry is not considered luxury. When you put a black face to it, they don’t consider what you’re doing as luxury. It’s considered an urban product". Agnes Bethel is here to change the game when it comes to luxury footwear, the self-made duo was determined to succeed by any means necessary.

She is also a staunch advocate of the production and usage of healthy and cruelty-free cosmetics. She is a well-respected speaker and very vocal about toxic chemicals in cosmetics and personal care products. The entrepreneur uses her voice to spread awareness. Being passionate about introducing safe, healthy & cruelty-free products, was the core reason for establishing LaMonique Cosmetics.

Mila Christina Design
Mila Christina's founder launched a kids' fashion brand after noticing the industry's lack of clothing options that benefit both her child's social development and physical comfort. The minority woman-owned business combines these two aspects through the use of natural, hypoallergenic cashmere material and multicultural prints that introduce the value of diversity to kids. Multiple studies show that children as young as 2 1/2 begin to understand stereotypes and notice social differences, which made Ollia Njibaloh, the founder, all the more motivated to develop kids' garments that also encourage a positive mentality on acceptance and inclusion. The brand currently offers sweaters and bodysuits, and cashmere combs for maintenance. Website: https://www.milachristina.com Instagram: @milachristina_ny Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/

Zenobia
We would like for you to consider our skincare system for your skin needs. Our brand is Zenobia, and we created our products with the 10-step Korean beauty routine in mind. Central to the routine is taking time out to pamper yourself every day. However, we know that we don't typically dedicate as much time to ourselves daily, so we created a 4-product system that encourages people to take just 10 minutes out of their day to relax and care for their skin and overall wellness. Our products target acne, hyperpigmentation, and eczema (skin issues common in communities of color), but can work on all skin types. They work best as a system, but can be used separately as well. We can also be found on our website, IG @zenobiaskin, and TW @zenobiaskincare.
Our products are:
1. NOBI Cleansing Oil- great for removing makeup
2. African Black Soap Powder- exfoliating powder cleanser
3. Rooibos Toning Essence w/Niacinamide- replaces toner
4. Hydrating Serum w/Natural Retinol Alternative- hydrates and plumps skin
