Lunchtime Shopper's Picks for Cult Beauty Sites

By peoplemag

Sometimes the local drugstore just doesn't cut it -- sometimes there's that elusive hand cream you got one time on vacation or that scent you can only find in London. Luckily for me (and anyone else with a serious beauty addiction), there are a handful of Web sites with some pretty amazing selections -- don't take my word for it, check them out for yourself! -- Melissa Liebling-Goldberg

Want to go green? Visit b-glowing.com, which allows you to search their fantastic inventory just for environmentally conscious products like Apivita Aromatherapy Dream Skin Face Cream, $35 at b-glowing.com.

If you can't make it to their super-chic store in N.Y.C, click over to Aedes de Venustas online at aedes.com. The star-fave boutique, stocks indulgent skin care products from around the world like Austria's Susanne Kaufmann Nutrient Cream, $85, and the exotic Italian Etro Royal Pavillion candle, $48.

Want to up the ante for overnight guests? Stock your cabinets with the hard-to-find goodies from inthebathroom.com, like Botot Mouthwash, $16, and Marvis Toothpaste, $9.

Luckyscent.com has fast become an obsession of the StyleWatch team for their carefully curated supplyof niche fragrances. Try Ipanema by Satellite, $80, for a light summer scent -- that you won't smell on everyone else.
