Hey VIP's! This second feature is a long time coming as I am happy to introduce the CEO of NaturallyIndy Urban Glow Cosmetics (UGC) for LuxuryofHer Series. When I started this site, I was determined to provide a platform to showcase black-owned businesses and provide opportunities for individuals to partner and support black an minority-owned businesses. To learn more on how to support, head here on the website.
In this feature , I am officially announcing on LuxuryofSPC Hospitality the extreme honor of partnering with UGC as a Brand Relations Ambassador. When I met India Green, founder and CEO of UGC, we both recognized the need and space for luxury hospitality and wellness. Especially as the hospitality industry recovered from the pandemic, the focus has shifted to combine lifestyle, wellness, and self-care which is indeed a luxury. Also, not to mention she is a fellow Temple Alumna - Go Owls!
"Many people believe that skincare products or the practice of taking care of the skin is a luxury, however it is a necessity that can be made to feel luxurious." - CEO, UGC
Business Snapshot and Alignment: UGC + LuxuryofSPC Hospitality
NaturallyIndy Urban Glow Cosmetics is a natural skincare and wellness brand committed to creating honest, effective, and organically sourced skincare solutions. We curate skincare and wellness products for men and women who strive to live happy and healthy lives through self-care practices. Our values are rooted in community, transparency, education, and empowerment. We are on a mission to empower people to live healthy and happy lives through skincare and wellness! Because we strongly believe that what you put into your mind and body is important.
NaturallyIndy Urban Glow Cosmetics, LLC goes far beyond creating topical products. The products and skincare treatments we offer serve as a stepping stone for our customers to enhance their current or transition into a more health conscious lifestyle. Many people believe that skincare products or the practice of taking care of the skin is a luxury, however it is a necessity that can be made to feel luxurious. Especially in communities with BIPOC, we are not raised nor conditioned to take care of ourselves for living, but for survival. For us luxury isn't the popular aesthetic that you may see circulating, it's knowing how and when to take care of yourself and being able to listen to and understand one's body so that you can make healthier living decisions. The concept of self-care and our passion behind educating, offering resources, and creating spaces to bridge the gap between healthcare and wellness is where our alignment with LuxuryofSPC begins.
Our partnership does an amazing job of being that connector, helping to bridge the gap. LuxuryofSPC serves as a resource and guide to redefine luxury for everyone including BIPOC which is very similar to what we do at Urban Glow Cosmetics, making everyday healthy skin care habits and self care practices a part of our regular routines whilst adding the luxurious feel! Healthy skincare, travel, and other forms of luxury aren't reserved to one ethnic or racial background or tax bracket. And we're here to show our community just that!

Sunday Self-Care Series: A community for Black Women
This past February, UGC sponsored an event called Sunday Self-Care Wine Down Series. This was the first (of many to come) event to bring together black women for networking, self-care vibes, complimentary massages by Rooted Holistic Therapy, and of course the finest brunch and wine culinary experience. More importantly, this space served as a safe space for black men and women to discuss the deeper meaning of self-care and wellness in our communities. I was honored to be alongside panelists featuring UGC fellow brand ambassadors Dr. Tierra J., Rhea M., and Bash S. To read more about the Sunday Self-Care Wine Down Series, head to Self-Care Sunday's Instagram account.
