Hello everyone and welcome to Behind The Posh. Behind the Posh is a black owned marketing agency based in Flint MI!

We love to promote black owned & local businesses through journalism and visual arts!

The month of August we celebrate #NationalBlackBusinessMonth and I thought it would be best to highlight the hottest self care black owned businesses locally in Flint Michigan!

I also reached out to friends & colleagues for their favorite self care brands made locally!

Without further ado, here is Behind The Posh's Black Business Month Favorites!

Walking Lotus

Walking Lotus is a health and body care e-commerce business established in 2020 by Jasmine Farrar. From handmade soaps to hair oil, all products are great!

My most recent purchase & personal favorites are the hair oil & muscle rub

I suffered crazy hair loss post partum and the stimulating oil has helped tremendously.

Another product I love is the muscle rub. After a long day, a good stretch & wholesome rub for the muscles is priceless!

Made with eucalyptus, spearmint, and grape seed oil, it is made to naturally relax you!

Both products you may order through walking lotus’s website https://walkinglotus.bigcartel.com.

Products are made to order. Please allow 7-10 business days for products to be made.
