What to buy from Russian brands of cosmetics: 45 decent products
For many Russian cosmetics does not add up: there is still a strong belief that affordable cosmetics are always worse than expensive ones, and domestically produced goods often lose quality in terms of imports (at least they are used to counting this). We think that Russian brands also deserve attention, therefore, we chose 45 proven funds, from which it is not terrible to begin acquaintance with them.
Teana
The corresponding, forgive, spirit of the time, the Teana brand appeared eight years ago, but it was only now that it began to emerge from the shadows - the decision not to spend money on advertising had an effect. The company has set a goal in front of itself worthy: to provide customers with inexpensive natural cosmetics that would be more effective compared to professional cosmetics. Despite the fact that Teana emphasize the naturalness of their ingredients, they strive to use the most advanced technologies, and successfully deny associations to their grandmother’s recipes.
Art-Visage
Art-Visage is one of the most famous Russian brands of decorative cosmetics, which, perhaps, can be forgiven shamelessly copied logo with Giorgio Armani (or not). Its main feature is making cosmetics to order: if you have been looking for a long time for a green lip gloss, yellow lipstick or a special shade of a shade, you can contact the Art-Visage laboratory and get what you need for 400-450 rubles. With ready-made products, the brand also has a full order: the online store has everything for the most difficult makeup.
Kleona
Like many other Russian manufacturers, Kleona relies on naturalness and avoids synthetic components (if they are in a particular bank, they are warned about it). Representatives of the brand are not lazy to talk with customers and periodically explain the properties of parabens, talk about the quality of essential oils and tell why they do not test the products on animals. The range for the most part are simple and not very cleansing products and inexpensive creams for different skin types.
Natura Siberica
Shampoos, masks and creams Natura Siberica are sold at every step, not only in Russia but also abroad (where the brand is almost more popular). What is nice, the company does not stand still and constantly gives out new tools and whole lines that go with a bang, and even opens spa-centers. By the way, not so long ago, she started the production of decorative cosmetics - in the regiment of organic carcasses, lipsticks and shadows arrived.
Greenlab
Another young and budding brand that seeks to cover everything at once. GreenLab has five tentacles, that is, units: Dr. Kozhevatkin - to solve specific problems such as dehydration and loss of skin tone; GreenLab Little produces oils, foams, shampoos and powders for children; GreenLabOrg, as you can guess, is organic cosmetics, and HEADDRESS is the means for basic hair care and treatment. The fifth specialization is rather unexpected: Healing Derm is a complex of skin care products for bedridden patients.
"Bark"
Cora is doing well: a couple of years ago, those who knew about this inexpensive and extremely effective domestic brand could look for some kind of acid mask during the day with fire, and now Cora is sold in almost every pharmacy and large supermarket. The company explains the effectiveness of its funds with loyalty to the principles developed: a high content of plant extracts, the use of mineral components, essential oils and the choice of a fatty basis for most of the products.
Organic Shop
Elegant packaging and dangerously delicious flavors - this is perhaps the quintessence of Organic Shop. The brand has many products for the body: creams, butters, scrubs, mousses and other things. Trying them to one person is not only impossible, but probably not necessary - only if you are not ready to donate half of the bathroom to banks. On the other hand, if you are one of those who are too lazy to get smeared with body cream, Organic Shop products can be just right - the smell and the general cheerful look wash out to open banks several times a day.
"Clean line"
It’s embarrassing to talk about this company, but you can’t do without it. We all remember about shampoos, that "80% consist of a decoction of medicinal herbs," but the "Clean Line" long ago stepped forward. The brand still has basic tools like scrubs, facial gels and the same shampoos, but more timely ones have appeared, for example, the same BB cream (which serves as an example even for the extremely successful Garnier).
"Recipes grandmother Agafi"
At some point, the brand’s affairs got so good that it split into several Agathias; for convenience we have put everything in one point. The brand has a lot of successful tools, and it does not stall and slowly develops new horizons (recently, for example, started producing excellent toothpastes). He also does not ignore the hearty bathing theme, but he plays up to it with dignity: he does not just release the fifth version of the successful soft soap, but sorts the usual means into convenient portion packs.
"Taiga Herbalist"
If all Russian cosmetics can be divided into types, one of the most striking will be the bath brand. On the one hand, soaps and scrubs do not happen much, but on the other hand, the same bars and bottles with the same fragrances and almost the same presentation evoke mortal longing. The more interesting to get acquainted with companies that manage to stand out even in this niche. "Taiga Herbalist" seems to be doing everything the same as the rest, but it intelligently balances its Russianness with really interesting means.
Planeta Organica
To the best of the positive and extremely open, the Planeta Organica brand seems to hide nothing from customers: it tells everything about the main ingredients, reveals the basic values of the company and even describes the details of the expeditions for raw materials. Such activity is reflected blissfully on products: such a choice of natural oils and products based on them is only offered by Natura Siberica, but Planeta Organica remains recognizable even with such a powerful competitor.
"Black Pearl"
"Black Pearl" unsuccessfully rejuvenated and now is not perceived as cosmetics only for mature skin. This was facilitated by the choice of new brand ambassadors (the recent novelty is, for example, Lisa Boyarskaya), and the reversal of the range towards the modern buyer, who wants a great tonal and moisturizer and oil for washing prevented).
Organic Therapy
Cute Organic Therapy tubes are the work of the “First Solution” company, which counts more than a dozen well-known Russian brands (it all started in 2002 with “Grandmother Agafi’s Recipes”). There are no claims to a newbie, except that the brand strongly speculates on consumer interest in everything natural: Organic Therapy cannot be called organic (there is no approval from the certifying organization), but you can write a cherished word on the package if at least one ingredient meets the requirements. Anyway, Organic Therapy offers simple solutions for everyday tasks at humane prices and looks good.
Green mama
But Green Mama does not change at all: the same calm white-green packaging, funny logo and eternal means (to the latter, however, absolutely no complaints). But this is exactly the rare case when you can not be afraid of the fate of your favorite funds: the probability that they will be taken out of production or replaced with an updated formula seems to be too small.
Eva mosaic
Another rare decorative stamp. In general, it creates the impression of teenage makeup, but who said that this is bad. It is reasonable to apply to the Eva Mosaic stands when you need simple clear things like a regular mascara or pencil for a new lipstick. At the same time, if you have long wanted to try something strange by your standards, but did not want to spend money, it would be useful to delve into the bottles of Eva Mosaic.
