Cocotique

What's in the box: Each month brings five to eight full-size beauty and self-care products, which can include hair, skin and body items chosen for women of color.

Cocotique is a monthly beauty subscription built for women of color and diverse ethnicities, and it has been curating products for this audience for more than 12 years. Each box promises five to eight full-size beauty and self-care products, which sets it apart from boxes stuffed with tiny samples. Hair care is part of the mix alongside skin and other beauty items. If you only want hair products, know that this is a broader beauty box and not a dedicated hair service. The brand has added a free Health and Wellness Hub with articles on heart health, PCOS, mental health and gut health, written with Black women in mind. It's a thoughtful extra, but it doesn't change what arrives in the box. Cocotique also runs a shop, a beauty marketplace and an archive of past boxes. The archive is a handy way to preview the kinds of brands and products it tends to pick. The homepage doesn't show the subscription price, so check the subscribe page and the refund policy before you commit. Shop orders over $100 ship free. Overall, it's a focused, established choice for shoppers who want beauty products picked with their needs in mind.
