We are so thankful to have the freedom to have amazing jobs in an amazing industry that we are passionate about. What would be a better day than the Fourth of July to take a step back and celebrate some of our favorite American-bred beauty brands. Here's a look at some of America's finest:
Burt's Bees, created by Burt Shavitz and Roxanne Quimby originating in Maine in the 1980's, the company was started when Roxanne started making candles from Burt's left over beeswax. The brand then grew to incorporate more than over 195 products for beauty, personal hygiene, and babycare.
Tarte founded by Maureen Kelly in NYC; where she left her PHD program to start her brand. Kelly was a self-professed beauty product junkie previous to the creation of her line. Tarte can now be found in many prestigious stores across the board, but Maureen can thank Henri Bendel for being the first store to carry her line. 
RMS Beauty Rose Marie Swift is the genius behind this organic and colorful cosmetic line. Her nearly 20 years of experience in the beauty industry fueled the vision behind this celebrity makeup artist's line. RMS is created hydrate and illuminate skin, and is dedicated to changing the way women use makeup. Each product is toxin-free and designed to nourish and heal. 
Obsessive Compulsive Cosmetics Founded by David Klasfeld; his admitted beauty obsession ultimately turned into the creation of his brand for both the quality and color conscious. This brand is stands behind being 100% cruelty free and strives to use the finest ingredients available. OCC's "Lip Tar" has become an overnight cult classic for both consumers and makeup artists all over the globe.
We hope you enjoy these brands as much as we do and are wishing you a happy and healthy
Fourth of July!
