Best Beauty Supply Store Social Butterfly Beauty

Silicon Valley loves the carefully selected nontoxic beauty supplies from Social Butterfly Beauty. Having won Best in Silicon Valley numerous times for Best Hair Salon, Social Butterfly Beauty owner Sheila Gall is thrilled to be honored as Best in Silicon Valley for Beauty Supply store for 2022. “I expanded the beauty supply side of my business at the start of the pandemic so that my clients could continue taking advantage of the top-quality, nontoxic skincare, hair care and body care products I choose,” says Sheila. Little did she expect, but beauty supplies soon became the fastest-growing segment of her business, which now features the locally owned and operated Authentic Skin Remedies line by Amy Kearnan of San Jose. “I am the biggest product snob in the world and the products by Authentic Skin Remedies are amazing,” says Sheila. “Amy’s Replenish Moist Mask is like a facelift in a jar. It’s hydrating and people love it.” Other lines available at Social Butterfly Beauty include Jane Iredale Makeup, Oway Organic, Simply Organic Beauty, EVOLVh and more. Every product at Social Butterfly Beauty is nontoxic. Working only with nontoxic lines sits at the foundation of everything Shelia does. “Our mission is to make you as happy and gorgeous as you can be and to do that without exposing you to toxic chemicals,” she says. She blogs about the importance of using nontoxic beauty products and has gained wide acclaim for her nontoxic approach. And, of course, as a curly haired girl herself, Sheila specializes in products specifically for curly hair. Her blog features tips and product recommendations that meet the unique needs of curly hair. Customers can have their orders shipped to them or can pick up products in person at the salon, where all distribution takes place. Social Butterfly Beauty provides free shipping for orders over $50; and every order of $100 or more receives a gift with purchase.
