There’s buzzy skincare, there are cult classics, and then there is Susanne Kaufmann, which somehow manages to be the best of both. Susanne was practically destined for skincare — her family ran a hotel and spa in the Austrian Alps for five generations — and was introduced by her grandmother to the healing power of the local botanicals. The result: luxurious, effective, plant-derived products you’ll look forward to using every day, packaged by hand in chic, recycled glass containers. This bath soak smells as nice as it looks, with ingredients like ylang ylang, patchouli, and lavender. There’s a rosemary sprig tucked inside each bottle (sourced from an estate in the Alentejo region of Portugal) that makes it an especially lovely gift… to others or to yourself.
