Aesop

Founded in 1987, this high-end Australian beauty brand continues its global expansion with the opening of its third NYC shop (the others are in Nolita and Grand Central Terminal). Inspired by the work of German artist Joseph Beuys, the space is outfitted with industrial felt and oak, and adorned with vintage barbershop globe pendant lights. Relax while the trained staff provides custom consultations and demonstrations suited to your skin needs with the label’s fragrant, plant-based concoctions. Slough off dead skin cells with tea-tree-leaf exfoliators ($37) or stay squeaky clean with geranium-leaf body cleansers ($23–$43). Nourish your chapped pucker with deep-conditioning jasmine, violet and tuberose healing lip balm ($31).
