Cultivating a presence in my friend group as the girl with a skincare product hoarding gift, I always had friends come over for Sunday face mask nights or product recommendations when a pimple crawled up the night before a date.
To be clear, this wasn't just my female friends.
Yes, the beauty world has lots to do in terms of the way they market their products mostly to women. But with the rise of interest in socially conscious beauty brands and in brands that support a higher cause of gender-neutrality in marketing, more and more beauty brands with a passion for social justice and compassion for the LGBTQ community have come forth — and with good reason.
These are the brands paving the way for a more gender-inclusive space in skincare.
