Aesop

Aesop was established in Melbourne in 1987, and has since been formulating products with efficacy foremost in mind - their complex, distinctive aromas are but an incidental treat. The range now spans skin, hair and body care, as well as fragrance and accessories for the self and home. Aesop—a Certified B Corporation™—does not test its formulations or ingredients on animals, and all Aesop products are vegan, Leaping Bunny approved, and included on PETA's cruelty-free and vegan lists.

Aesop hosts customers in calm, warm, comforting spaces that look, feel and smell good; each store is a restorative haven of visual harmony where they can sit and have some tea if they so desire, and receive informed service from consultants of exceptional calibre. These consultants conduct meaningful conversations with customers to understand their concerns, skin type, usual environment and preferred textures. Formulations are explored in detail, with consultants demonstrating each product at the sink and allowing customers to experience how it feels on their skin.
