About Us
A Story of Beauty, Botanicals & Purpose Since 2008
​​
FAERIE Organic Cosmetics is an independent clean beauty brand founded in 2008 by herbalist, makeup artist, and natural beauty formulator Erin Mincks. Long before “clean beauty” became mainstream, Erin was handcrafting mineral cosmetics and botanical skincare with a simple philosophy: what we place on our skin should be chosen with intention, mindfulness, and care.
After losing both parents to cancer, Erin became deeply passionate about researching conventional cosmetic ingredients and creating gentler, more thoughtful alternatives for herself, her family, and her makeup artistry clients. What began as small-batch formulations crafted in her kitchen gradually grew through word of mouth into a loyal community seeking minimalist, skin-conscious beauty products made with nature-inspired ingredients.
Since 2008, FAERIE Organic Cosmetics has remained independently owned and dedicated to creating clean mineral makeup and botanical skincare designed for sensitive skin. Rooted in herbal traditions and holistic living, the brand blends mineral pigments, plant oils, and carefully selected botanical ingredients with an emphasis on simplicity, ingredient awareness, and timeless formulation practices.
Today, Erin’s personal journey with extreme ingredient sensitivities and mast cell activation syndrome (MCAS) continues to shape the philosophy behind every FAERIE Organic Cosmetics product. Each formula is intentionally created for individuals seeking a gentler, more mindful approach to beauty without compromising performance, elegance, or experience.
FAERIE Organic Cosmetics specializes in minimalist mineral makeup, botanical skincare, and skin-conscious beauty rituals for those who value clean ingredients, artistic craftsmanship, and thoughtful formulation. The brand is especially known for its ultra-minimal ingredient philosophy and products designed with sensitive, reactive, and acne-prone skin in mind.
