About us
AND OUR MISSION
Radiant Roots was founded by Marian Spier and Alexandra Heckman, who saw a gap in platforms celebrating the beauty and well-being of women of color in the Netherlands. United by this vision, they came together to create Radiant Roots.

This is us
Radiant Roots was born from a desire to give voice to the unique stories and traditions of women of color. One sunny afternoon, we realized that so many beauty traditions deeply rooted in cultural heritage don’t receive the recognition they deserve. We’re here to make those stories visible and to celebrate them.
Beauty is more than just appearance—it’s deeply intertwined with who we are and where we come from. Radiant Roots is a space where women of color can embrace their beauty and cultural roots. It’s a community where you’ll find inspiration, tips, and connections with others who share your experiences.
We can’t wait to embark on this journey with you and make Radiant Roots a place of inspiration.
With love,
Alexandra & Marian
