KHLOÈ BELLA SKINCARE

After wandering the canyons of Lower Manhattan, some of the best finds aren’t street-level at all. KHLOÈ BELLA SKINCARE sits five flights up at 80 Broad St, New York, NY 10004, a quiet perch above the Financial District’s usual rush. The shop specializes in skincare products tailored for a range of skin types and concerns, all while identifying as Black-owned. A quick call to (845) 814-1414 can clarify what’s in stock or answer questions about formulations before you make the trip.

Beauty counters in this part of the city often feel like an afterthought, tucked between office towers and lunch spots. Here, the focus stays on what’s inside the bottles rather than the storefront. Directions to the fifth-floor suite are easy to pull up on your phone: map. Once you’re there, the elevator ride gives you a moment to decide which products to try first.
