Dark and gorgeous? Pale and spooky? Necromancy Cosmetica is your one-stop-shop for all things goth makeup. Latinx power couple, Des and Zal, run Necromancy Cosmetica out of their San Juan, Puerto Rico storefront, where they make creamy, vegan, cruelty-free and handcrafted gothic lipsticks and eyeshadows. Don’t be fooled, this goth Latinx makeup brand makes amazing shades that range from the blackest black to deep sea green to the palest pink–there truly is something for everyone! The shades feature goth-inspired names like, “Bonfire Dance”, “Ghoul Queen”, “It’s Wednesday”, and more. My personal favorites are “Carnal Sin”, which is a dark, luscious red, and “Divine Flesh”, which is a brown nude with a chestnut undertone. As Des and Zal would say, join the Coven!
Founded by Latinx Esmeralda Hernandez, BeBella Cosmetics is one of the Latinx makeup brands that offers high-end quality at accessible prices.

Another great thing about BeBella is that you can get everything you need in one place: eyes, face, lips, lashes, and even brushes! They even offer fun mystery boxes that contain full-sized products. Best of all, they’re cruelty-free.

This is one of the Latinx makeup brands that are one of a kind! Besides offering makeup, they also have a nail care line and a skincare line under the same name.
Founded by the powerhouse sisters, Mabel and Shaira Frías, Luna Magic is one of the Latinx makeup brands that combines beauty with Latinx culture.

Their makeup line offers everything from lips, to face, and nails. They even have cool decals that celebrate Latinx culture! Their packaging also gives me #rockera vibes with a chic edge.

Named after the town Alamar in Cuba, Alamar Cosmetics is for mamis and papis alike! This Latinx makeup brand is ruled by the 3 Latinx Bs: Bueno, Bonito y Barato, which translates to Good, Pretty, and Inexpensive. This brand’s cosmetics are cruelty-free and curated by the founder and CEO, Gabriela Trujillo–who has 10 years of industry experience. They also celebrate Latinx culture and they’re complexion-inclusive and, finally, they work to keep their products at a fair price without sacrificing quality. Talk about the 3 Bs, huh?
You’ve probably heard of the Pizza Palette by GlamLite Cosmetics (if not, where have you been?). What you probably didn’t know is that GlamLite is one of the many Latinx makeup brands out there! Founded by Giselle Hernandez in 2018, this size-inclusive makeup brand quickly went viral for its first palette, the Pizza Palette.
