With one brick-and-mortar store located in the beating heart of West Hollywood and a globally beloved website coined "The Industry's Beauty Edit", Violet Grey is essentially every beauty lover's ultimate oasis when it comes to elevated yet discerning product curation.

But to cut to the chase, its fawn-worthy product stock is the result of the Violet Code—an exclusive, highly talented grouping of the industry's top-tier professionals—from makeup artists to dermatologists to celebrities, and the products their unparalleled intel has deemed "the best". Dreamy, right?
