Welcome back, beauty lover!
It’s no surprise that coronavirus and its economic impact has had a devastating effect on small businesses, so it’s never been more important to shop small natural beauty stores.
Now more than ever is the time to get together by supporting small, family-run, and independent local stores! We can really make a difference to the families who own and run them.
I’ve used a few small shops in my time as a blogger, so I thought it would be nice to share them with you here. With so much choice, it’s good to know the stores you can trust and who share the same ethics of natural, clean, sustainable, and ethical. I hope you’ll see that it’s easy to find thoughtful gifts with a conscience!
These are stores that don’t only sell their own products, but products from several brands, offering a wider choice and some familiar and lesser known brands. It’s a win for everybody!
Read on to learn more about my favourite shop small natural beauty stores.
