Shen Beauty:
Brooklyn's latest bastion of beauty, Shen Beauty, is stocked with exclusive UK imports and hard-to-find organic lines, and the kids at Shen are more than happy to create take-home samples of products like Amanda Lacey's Cleansing Pomade, one of Lubatti's moisturizers, or a Kahina Giving Beauty mask.
Shen Beauty, 315 Court Street (between Degraw and Sackett streets); Brooklyn; 718-576-2679.
