KNC Beauty is a clean skincare brand founded in 2016 by Kristen Noel Crawley, who came up with the idea after a trip to Tokyo and a lifetime of chronically chapped lips. The product that put the brand on the map is its all-natural collagen lip mask, and the range has since expanded into eye masks and other clean skincare, all made without harsh chemicals, synthetic fragrance or artificial dyes.
Crawley is also known as a stylist and beauty personality, and the brand carries that same eye for design through its packaging and its small, focused product list. KNC Beauty is Black-owned and woman-owned, based in the Los Angeles area, and operates online with no storefront of its own. Alongside its own site the line is carried by prestige and indie retailers including Violet Grey, Moda Operandi, CAP Beauty and Beautyhabit, so it is easy to find whether you shop direct or through a stockist you already use.
If you have been after something small, simple and genuinely gentle for lips and eyes, the masks are the place to start. Browse the range online and try one.
