11 Chic Skincare Brands Every Natural-Beauty Lover Should Know About

The skincare world can be viewed in two ways: incredibly exciting or incredibly overwhelming. If you fall into the latter category and like to keep your routine simple and streamlined, then you'll want to look to the skincare brands created for minimalists in mind.

My tried and true: Youth to The People does it all. Their products are effective, natural, and most importantly sustainable. My personal favorite is their Kale + Green Tea Spinach Vitamins Superfood Cleanser. It cleanses my sensitive skin without stripping my natural oils away. It also has a great lather and is cost-effective as a little bit goes a long way.

If you haven't been living under a rock for the past few years, then you're probably already familiar with Glossier. Their products are trendy and natural - created for women who want to embrace their natural skin. I recommend their Solution Exfoliating Skin Perfector for smoother, brighter, and clearer skin.

Another favorite is Milk Makeup's Vegan Milk Moisturizer. Milk Makeup is vegan, cruelty and paraben-free, as well as perfect for easy, on-the-go application.

Whatever your reasons for polishing your skincare routine, the following eleven brands are curated, effective, and leave you with a glowing, happy complexion. Marie Kondo who?
