Eighth+Kin is a lovely, chic, and intimate boutique. It is described as a black girl's dream and a major confidence booster. The store has a phenomenal and great selection of products made for black and melanated skin, including cosmetics, hair care, and skincare. Products are unique to melanin and include items like lip gloss, lip liner, pressing powder, black soap cleanser, and a neroli exfoliator. The service is extremely kind, helpful, professional, knowledgeable, and honest. Consultants provide spot-on shade matching and generous, non-intimidating makeup lessons. These "Teach Me How" lessons cover application for different occasions, brush techniques, and skincare recommendations, leaving clients feeling smart and pretty. The experience is fun and feels like learning from a sister. Customers walk out with great products and new tips, reporting elevated skincare routines and discovering needed moisture. The boutique setup is breezy and the service is consistently praised, with prompt delivery and pickup options. Clients express gratitude and a strong intent to return again and again, recommending it to anyone shopping for quality, black-owned beauty products.
Such a lovely store. I purchased lip gloss, lip liner, and pressing powder unique to my melanin. The makeup artist was very honest and knowledgeable about what products to use and how to use them for various things. I walked out feeling smart and pretty.
