The Antidote to Maximalism: How MERIT is Redefining Luxury Beauty Through Intentional Simplicity
About Us - MERIT
Founded in 2021 by Katherine Power, MERIT was created as a response to the oversaturated world of 50-step beauty routines and fleeting trends. Based in Los Angeles with a global presence in London and Paris, MERIT is the "antidote" to the overwhelming beauty landscape.
The brand focuses on "Responsible Luxury," creating a curated collection of high-performance, minimalist essentials that are safe for the body, skin, and planet. All products are vegan, cruelty-free (Leaping Bunny certified), and formulated to meet strict EU clean standards. By stripping away the "noise," MERIT helps you look like yourself—but more polished—in five minutes or less.
Effortless Elegance: Discover the Top 3 Award-Winning Essentials for Your Daily Routine
- The Minimalist (Perfecting Complexion Stick): Neither a foundation nor a concealer, but the best of both. This breathable stick replaces your entire base routine, offering 30 shades of skin-like coverage that never feels heavy.
- Flush Balm (Cheek Color): A cream tint that melts into the skin for a transparent, dewy glow. Unlike traditional blushes, it’s designed to let your natural skin texture shine through while providing a healthy pop of color.
- Great Skin (Instant Glow Serum): A bi-phase serum infused with hyaluronic acid and niacinamide. It leaves skin instantly hydrated and "glass-like" without a greasy residue, making it the perfect primer for makeup.
