The partnership between a professional woman of Jamaican descent, who became the muse of a Black Opal consumer, the pharmacist possessed of unparalleled expertise as a product formulator, and the doctor, a Board-certified Dermatologist, offered exceptional knowledge and promise.
Together, they developed a comprehensive and affordable collection of targeted skincare products that would combine state-of-the-art technological advances with proven ingredients to service the unique skincare needs of men and women with skin of colour.
Recognising the importance of building from that strong heritage, Black Opal later introduced a line of makeup specially designed to address the beauty concerns of women of colour. With an impressive range of formulas and a stunning collection of shades, the makeup complements and enhances a woman’s natural beauty.
Today, giving you the tools you need to achieve healthy, radiant skin is at the core of the business. Black Opal is your beauty authority and wants to help you discover the beauty within. Finding your shade can be a breeze with their colour-match skin tones to cover all imperfections and enhance natural beauty.
Offering a full range of concealers, foundations, powders, eye shadows, eye liners/pencils, mascara, brow kits, lipstick, lip-gloss and lip-liner, their aim is to cater to all women with a range of tones. In 2010 Black Opal launched their e-commerce website and in 2013 Black Opal has expanded to Australia with official distributers Ebony & Ivory hair and beauty salon, shipping Australia-wide.
