Meet MJ

Every Shade Has a Story—Here’s Mine.

I was raised in Prince George County, MD. I had ZERO aspirations and ventured into various fields; however, none sparked a fire. My outlook on life did shift, though, the moment my daughter was born. Becoming a mother catapulted my life into what it is today.  I entered the public sector as a procurement specialist intern, became a full-time employee within two years, and was able to provide a sustainable lifestyle for my family.

As most mothers, I totally was invested in my family and life was moving FAST. I couldn't keep up. I failed to invest that same time and energy in myself. Then 2020 happened. It hit hard and I hit the bottom. I decided that it was time to put me first. It was time for a MAKEOVER— and that's just what I did, inside and out. I decided to develop something truly mine which allowed me to create my ideal lifestyle. I decided to build MJ Beauty.

Marriah Jones Beauty isn’t just a lipstick brand—it’s a movement, it was GROWTH. A celebration of power, confidence, and unapologetic beauty. I knew it was meant to be when my daughter and niece walked around our neighborhood during the pandemic, selling my lip glosses to our neighbors—for fun! They came back with CASH! Then I thought, oh yes, this is a business!

Now I need a signature shade. BOSSY—the bold, true red that changed everything. What began as a signature shade has now become a legacy—a symbol of ambition, confidence, and taking up space without apology. For me, lipstick has always been more than makeup. It’s the final step before walking into the world as your most powerful self. It’s the confidence boost, the finishing touch, the silent statement that speaks volumes.

I created Marriah Jones Beauty for the women who own their power, embrace their confidence, and aren’t afraid to be seen. Whether it’s a signature red, the perfect nude, or a fearless bold shade, every color is designed to elevate, empower, and make you feel unstoppable.
