Let’s talk about beauty products. The beauty floors of department stores like Barneys, Saks Fifth Avenue and Bergdorf Goodman are flooded with high-end brands that everyone knows. However, in recent years the demand for cruelty-free, natural and clean products has increased exponentially. Luckily, there’s no shortage of alternative beauty brands and stores in New York. Here are our favorites.
Location: 261 East 10th Street, New York, NY, 10009
This store is all about organic, raw, gluten-free and plant-based products. You’ll find an ample selection of beauty supplies, but also supplements, superfoods, and even homeware. Some of the beauty brands they stock are Bee Yummy, MSM, Simply Divine Botanicals and more.
Location: Rituals Bleecker Street, 337 Bleecker St, New York, NY 10014
Rituals 5th Avenue, 172 5th Avenue, New York 10010

“The largest, non-toxic, clean beauty store on the planet,” Credo Beauty is a haven for those obsessed with clean beauty products. Their website has a comprehensive list of “dirty” ingredients that are forbidden in the products they sell. They stock makeup, deodorant, perfume, body creams, men products and so much more. If you’re getting started with clean and non-toxic beauty products, this should be your first stop.
Location: 430 W Broadway, New York, NY 10012
Winky Lux is a fun, colorful and playful brand that worships poodles. Why? Because poodles are the epitome of canine beauty and grooming — and that’s what they strive to become. Furthermore, their products are quite unique. For example, their Flower Balm is a transparent lip balm that combines with your natural pH to create your own pink hue. Plus, it contains a real chrysanthemum inside! If you don’t know this brand, you should.
