Makeup & Cosmetics – Because Life Is Too Short for Products That Don't Actually Work, Made by People Who Don't Actually Care

Independent beauty, properly done

The beauty industry is, it has to be said, absolutely enormous — and like most enormous things, it has a tendency to prioritise scale over substance. Independent cosmetics brands operate rather differently. They start because a founder couldn't find what they were looking for, or believed they could do it better, or had a very specific gap in the market and the stubbornness to fill it. The result is products with a genuine point of view: more interesting formulations, more considered shade ranges, more honest ingredient lists, and considerably more passion per millilitre than anything produced by a committee in a glass-fronted headquarters. Our makeup and cosmetics collection brings together independent beauty brands from around the world — discover more by exploring our Shop by Purpose edit or see where in the world our beauty makers are based. Welcome to Sostter.

What you'll find here

The collection covers the full spectrum of makeup and cosmetics — eyeshadow palettes, liquid lipsticks, multichrome glosses, foundations, and the sort of products that make getting ready feel like a creative decision rather than a chore. Several of our brands are vegan and cruelty-free as a matter of genuine principle rather than marketing convenience, and many are made in small batches by indie founders with strong aesthetic identities and even stronger opinions about pigment payoff. For the skincare side of your routine, explore our Bathroom collection, and for grooming and cosmetics for men, browse our Men's Cosmetics edit.

A gift that lands every time

A beautifully presented cosmetics set from an independent brand makes for a genuinely exciting gift — something the recipient is unlikely to already own and very likely to love discovering. For inspiration, explore our Gifts for Her edit and our Hampers & Gift Sets collection, and check our new arrivals for the latest beauty drops.
