'It's a woman's world and you're lucky to be living in it!'—says Katy Perry's newest single. And lucky, we all are! Satires, parodies, and bad song reviews aside, the phrase 'woman's world' has got to be one that carries weight in 2024.


We thankfully live in a day and age where women's voices are heard, and listened to more than ever before. Women are given platforms and spaces to express themselves about countless issues around the world, and are empowered to go for their dreams and aspirations to create change. In the local business scene, women are having a moment—a time to shine so to speak, and and to create and magnify their gifts and talents inside the tough world of business.


Despite numerous obstacles and societal prejudices that have historically limited women's opportunities, they did not fall back but rather fought and climbed up the ladder to achieve their hopes and dreams—making them girl bosses in their own right.


They all started small, with a dream, and have allowed themselves to blossom through their various journeys. The local beauty scene is bustling with their contributions that promote inclusivity, love for local products, and pride in our cultural uniqueness. Because of their relentless efforts and unyielding commitment, their influence extends beyond the products they offer—they help empower and foster the local beauty business sector's grow, too.

If you've been hiding under a rock, TikTok Shop is currently where it's at. Shopping online has never been the same since this feature came to the app, and we've been loving it since. On our 'For You Page' a.k.a. 'FYP', there hasn't been a day where our feeds didn't feature one, two, or multiple product rave reviews from these women's brands. #Beautytok is filled to the brim with these ladies' faces, their inspiring stories, and their new innovative product releases. Their commitment to consistently deliver high-quality products (that don't break the bank) has then helped them build a loyal clientele, propelling them to become household names.
