BLK+GRN: Why do you think it is important to Buy Black?

ANGELA: It is important to Buy Black because I believe in supporting Black-owned businesses and funneling our money so that we develop a strong Black economy. I believe Black people can and do provide almost everything we need to consume. We just need to know these businesses exists and support them every change we get!

BLK+GRN: How is your brand green? ANGELA: PUR is green because of the ingredients we use. They are plant-based, biodegradable, and non-to-low toxic ingredients. Our packaging is either recyclable/compostable or reusable. It is important to have an eco-brand because I care about our environment and I care about making sure our products are safe for human use.
