Kindred Black makes artisan-produced, ethically manufactured and environmentally focused products like small-batch skincare that's beautifully packaged in unique glass vessels. KB Slow Beauty shares time-tested oils and toners that can be blended with one another. There's the Tuberose Aromatic Balm, Unicorn Oil and the Revive Facial Oil, each of which are uniquely packaged in a vial and topped off with a cork or glass stopper.
The brand ships its plastic-free products with boxes, tissue paper, kraft paper, shipping paper and other materials that are recycled. Other packaging materials like canvas dustbags are made from clothing manufacturer waste and recycled soda bottles.
Kindred Black's Apothecary collection also goes beyond face, body and hair care products with categories for fragrance and well-being.
