Looking for unique jewellery that is Black Owned? Then you need El Hyat in your life
So, let me set the scene…. it was Black Pound Day ? And I was searching for some new companies to support and try out ☺ One of my Instagram followers (I just love you guys ?) recommended El Hyat ? A jewellery company that I’ve never heard of, yet one quick browse of their website showed me that it’s a company that I need to explore further ? If I’m honest, what struck me the first time I looked at the El Hyat website, was the way their jewellery all seemed to stand out, yet maintain the classic look that all statement jewellery requires ?? I was immediately…

The regality that every event and occasion needs – Balloon and event design fit for royalty
I am a major celebrations person! When I say major, please don’t think that I am exaggerating ?

Dessert made to perfection – Callalie Cakes
If you haven’t already realised it from previous reviews….. I have an intense sweet tooth! But i’m particular about the kind of sweets I like. Bit of an oxymoron I know, but hey, I’m human ??♀️? My absolute favourite dessert has got to be cheesecake. Not just any kind of cheesecake though ? I’ve got a real issue with baked cheesecake (trust me its a long story ??♀️) I just cannot get my head around how it can be considered as cheesecake when it’s been baked ??♀️? Anyway, with that in mind you can imagine my absolute delight when I discovered a business (Callalie Cakes) that makes cheesecakes…

Looking for somewhere to fulfill your lash desires? Look no further than The K Lash
So, let me start off this review with a little confession……. you ready? ? Here goes….. I am not a lash person ? In fact I am not even a make-up person ? I’m not making these statements because I’m going to go into a long winded spiel about my daily routine, or try and convince you that I’m this au natural woman ? I’m merely a simple person that cannot be bothered, so just stick to a facial routine that doesn’t involve much time ? I tell you all of this not for idle conversation ? But instead to present you with the reasons as to why this…

When your occasion requires a card with a little je ne sais quoi…. Another greeting card option
So I know I’ve given you guys a review on greeting cards before…. But I never see anything wrong with having a few options when choosing a cute card, with just the representation you need ? With that being said, I have to introduce you to Nicola Le Speare and the amazing cards that she makes ? The representation in every single card featured on her website is exactly what has been missing from my life ? https://www.blackbellereview.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/30_08_2020_09_30_37_8410000.mp4 Don’t get me wrong its not about someone just putting a Black person on a card and calling it a day ? The perfect card has to be beautifully designed, suit the…

The adventures of a special dog and a special bunny…. The book every child needs in their life
There aren’t many children’s books that capture little one’s attention in a way that results in you having to read it over and over again to them. When you find a book like that, you literally hang onto it for dear life and then search for the author so you can buy all their other books ? Purely because it tends to be every parents dream for their children to have a love and passion for reading ? So when my Sons were gifted with the book Chief and Lilly Go To London, I was hopeful that this would be a book that they loved. That hope by the…

I freed my Pitts, Now it’s your turn…… A natural deodorant that provides amazing protection
Remember that day at the beginning of August, when the weather got so hot it felt like we were living in the underbelly of hell? ? Yeah you remember! It’s hard to forget heatwaves in this country because to a winter lover like me, they are the stuff nightmares are made of ? Well during that particularly ‘fun period’ ? I decided to try out a natural deodorant that I had seen advertised on a Black Business page that I belong to. Now let me be frank for a moment. This could have been an extremely disastrous idea ? Mainly because branching out and trying a different deodorant at…

Generational Wealth – The must read guide to begin building wealth for your family and beyond
I’ve always believed that one of the issues within the Black community is a lack of financial, understanding. One of my favourite Bible scriptures is “My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge” (Hosea 4:6) And when I think about the lack of financial knowledge that is still prevalent in our community, that scripture comes to mind. A vast majority of other communities spend time learning about generational wealth and how to create it. They then use that knowledge to build wealth for their children, which in turn leads to those children having a significant head start in life. Let me give you an example…. I’ve got friends from…

Dry, Frizzy Hair Be Gone… A hair moisturiser that we all need
The struggle I have had in trying to find a product that would moisturise my sons hair to the level I wanted has been unreal ??♀️ I’ve tried so many different products over the years and none have ever been to my satisfaction. I’m talking about big named brands as well as smaller brands that promise to give your hair moisture from God Himself ? Only for me to try it and be left so crucially disappointed ? So needless to say, when I received a recommendation to try Afrocenchix products, I was mildly pessimistic about whether I would get the results I truly wanted. Well I should…
