CULT OF PRETTY

Do you guys pay much mind to where things are

Do you guys pay much mind to where things are manufactured?  And who made them? I must admit I am not the best at looking at “made in” labels when it comes to beauty, but my friend Chessy Slater’s new site Sourced has made me pay more attention.

This awesome hub gathers only items handmade in America - from food to accessories to beauty.  They carry a bunch of my favorite brands including the Brooklyn made SW-Basics skincare line (their Cream is my mainstay moisturizer).

One of my favorite recent picks are these handprinted cosmetics bags made in Portland, OR by Nell and Mary.
