Our Pick
Krave Beauty
Higher editor rating (8.7 vs 8)
ONE THING
ONE THING is the ultimate customization brand. Each product contains one key botanical extract, so you can mix and match based on your skin's daily needs. The quality is surprisingly high for the price, and the concept is perfect for skincare enthusiasts who want control over their routine. Artemisia and Centella are standouts.
Pros
- โ Single-ingredient concept allows true customization
- โ Exceptionally affordable for the quality
- โ Large bottles with generous amounts
- โ Clean, transparent formulations
Cons
- โ Requires skincare knowledge to build a routine
- โ Packaging is very basic
- โ No complex multi-active products
- โ Some extracts are more effective than others
Krave Beauty
Liah Yoo built Krave Beauty the way you wish more brands would โ with a skincare-fatigued YouTube audience in mind, a commitment to stripping back rather than piling on, and one genuine cult hit in Great Barrier Relief. Small catalog, specific mission, loyal fans. Not for people who want a 10-step system. Very much for people whose skin has been yelled at for too long.
Pros
- โ barrier-first philosophy
- โ cult hero in Great Barrier Relief
- โ transparent founder storytelling
- โ no fragrance / no essential oils
Cons
