From LGBTQ-owned makeup labels to unisex skincare favorites.

Cis-gender, white, young, and female. Those were the standards that were long instilled in our beauty industry by brands and marketers alike. However, thanks to the new wave of gender-inclusive brands emerging in conjunction with <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/fashion/celebrity-stylists-genz-law-roach-zendaya-harry-styles" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gen Z</a> and Millennials being at the forefront of social activism, this outdated concept is continually being challenged. Brands that once got away with a limited amount of foundation shades and non-diverse campaigns are now seeing that the way forward is to welcome all. &nbsp;
With the industry being hit by a newfound wave of inclusivity, brands are even going beyond optics and supporting the communities at the source. Brands such as We Are Fluide and <a href="https://www.milkmakeup.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Milk</a> donate a percentage of their proceeds toward LGBTQIA+ causes and other non-profit organizations. Likewise, <a href="https://www.lofficiel.co.uk/beauty/learn-how-to-make-up-with-rihanna" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Fenty Skin</a>&nbsp;and Aesop ignore restrictive labels such as &ldquo;grooming,&rdquo; &ldquo;for him,&rdquo; and &ldquo;for her&rdquo; when marketing their products.&nbsp;
Regardless of your age, gender, or sexuality, L&rsquo;OFFICIEL rounds up 10 gender-neutral and inclusive beauty brands you should check out.
