Caru Skincare Co.

Representing Queens, this brand focuses on sustainable ingredients and earth-smart packaging, including seed-based labels and soap wrappers you can plant (hello, wildflowers!). Facial kits designed for specific skin types include a clay-bar cleanser, hydrosol toner and jojoba-oil moisturizer for $43. Ingredients are never artificial, and—when possible— are organic and purchased directly from farmers.
