It’s International Women’s Month and so here at Melanated Thoughts UK, we wanted to spotlight black women and their businesses.
First up we have SuperFoodLx, an award winning beauty brand created by Cherry and Paula Francis a Nurse Practitioner and Nutritionist. This mother-daugther duo formulate all the products found on their website, helping women to heal, strengthen and grow their hair.
Cherry and Paula are passionate about creating and sourcing the most nutrient dense ingredients for everything they produce which ensures the maintenance of health and wellbeing.
The idea for SuperFoodLx was born out of Paula living abroad and experiencing hairloss and breakage which was pretty unusual for her. But after contacting mum Cherry, and receiving a small bottle of oil mixed by Cherry herself, Paula’s hair was on the mend – Thanks mum!
And that’s when the SuperFoodLx journey began!
The website provides first-class products formulated for your hair, skin and nails. Our faves are the Kelp and Spirulina Hair, Skin and Nail vitamins which I am currently using to document my hair growth journey. There are also topical products such as oils that you can apply directly to the scalp/skin. The website also offers educational content helping you find the best way to maintain your hair, skin and nails from the inside out.

The SuperFoodLx Instagram page is also the PLUG when it comes to little recipes to support health and wellbeing. And their monthly newsletter also has some gems.
So if you’re interested in improving the condition of your hair, skin or nails, we would encourage you to take a look at SuperFoodLx if you haven’t already.
And if you do, tell them that Melanated Thoughts UK sent you and use the code JAMILA10 to save some coins.
