In 2019, actor, producer, and entrepreneur Tracee Ellis Ross founded Pattern Beauty, a Black-owned, Black-centered haircare brand for people with textured, curly hair in 2019. Now, the company has ten retail partners and 30 employees. We turned to them to get wellness-themed product recommendations this year and they delivered. From incense to bar soap to a fancy gold fan, here is what they recommend.

May Lindstrom Skin’s the Blue Cocoon solid oil facial concentrate, $180I love this product and first discovered it when it was gifted to me, so I want to pay it forward.
