KraveBeauty earns favorable reviews for gentle, effective basics—Matcha Hemp Hydrating Cleanser, Great Barrier Relief, and Beet The Sun sunscreen frequently calm sensitive skin, boost hydration, and layer well under makeup. Reviews also flag drawbacks: Oat So Simple and some moisturizers can feel too light or sting, Great Barrier Relief may pill or feel greasy to some, the cleanser can under-cleanse very oily skin, and the AHA toner can be too strong for sensitized users.

Been using Krave Beauty for years! Love love love all their products, and they continue to improve! Their mission of sustainability and transparency is also highly valued.

I've used the oat so simple water cream and it is my favorite moisturizer that's clean and acne safe. It's so moisturizing and has the best feeling.

Never stop making this!!
I have only tested two products from this brand and had a mixed experience. I love their cleanser/facewash and have bought it serval times. However, their AHA made me break out and it could be because my skin is too sensitive.

I love what this brand stands for, i follow them on TikTok and i like how they sell products with a packaging defect or formulation changes at a lower cost rather than letting the products go to landfills. Their shipping was super fast within the US as well
I really love KraveBeauty and have been a fan for the last couple of years. My favorite product is definitely the great barrier relief and I have noticed that my skin feels so much more healthy and rejuvenated after using it for a couple days. I tend to have somewhat less oily/more dry skin and think it works great, I don't know that I would recommend using as frequently to someone with more oily skin.

I like the products I've tried from Krave but I haven't been blown away. Great Barrier Relief was super gentle on my sensitive skin and perfect for the hot months of spring and summer as it's very lightweight. It's definitely a bit greasy so I'd only recommend using it at night. I ended up switching it out of my routine come fall and winter because it didn't play very well with my heavier moisturizers.

Great Barrier relief specifically is good for dry and combination types but might not be great for greasier skin types. Love the brand mission of skin barrier restoration and the super gentle formulas across all their product line. Not my absolute favorite skincare brand, only because I didn't see any direct results, but worth trying out if you struggle with other brands due to sensitive/reactive skin. Overall, I think there are better products at a similar price point.

I had really dry and flaky skin because of the winter along with tiny pumps along my cheeks. It was awful and none of my face washes were doing anything. Within the first month of using their products the flaky skin and the bumps on my skin went away. I no longer have dry patches on my face and while yes I still do breakout it’s definitely not as bad as it used to be and i can see a real difference in my skin and my skin texture. Of course I used other products to help with my skin so I recommend you research your skin type and find out what works best for you and what doesn’t. However if you have dry skin I would definitely recommend this product.
Krave's Great Barrier Relief Cream is my go-to for days in between retinol and AHA/BHA exfoliation. The ingredients are clean and feel great on the skin, and their brand mission is something I can get behind. I am excited to try their cleanser and moisturizer too!

The smell of the Great Barrier Relief is a little weird-- sort of like self-tanner. That is my only complaint!
absolutely love love love krave beauty!! omg their great barrier relief is simply to die for, it works wonders on the skin. i have yet to try a lot of their other products, but it is looking very hopeful for me so far!
I first discovered Krave Beauty through its founder, Liah Yoo, while watching her vlogs on YouTube many years ago. I was immediately drawn to the brand's commitment to using natural ingredients and its focus on promoting skin health for all skin types. When the Beet Shield was first released, I was quick to purchase it as I am a huge fan of mineral sunscreens. However, my excitement was short-lived when Krave Beauty had to recall the product due to inconclusive data from third-party testing. Despite this setback, the company showed its commitment to its customers by offering refunds for all purchases and vowing to do better. This level of integrity is what sets Krave Beauty apart as a true independent beauty brand that truly cares about the well-being of its customers. I am thrilled to hear that the Beet Shield is being relaunched and can't wait to see all the improvements that Krave Beauty has made. I have no doubt that this product will be just as amazing as the brand's other products.
KraveBeauty sunscreen, Beet the sun, was my introduction to K beauty/skin care. I was so impressed by how lightweight the sunscreen was. I hate when sunscreens feel heavy or greasy on my skin. It's hard to find a sunscreen that doesn't left a white cast on my skin, but this one was a total dream! I didn't experience any breakouts or redness. I could wear it under makeup without feeling like I was adding any extra grease to my face. The brand discontinued this product couple years ago but I was beyond excited to hear that KraveBeauty has decided to bring it back in 2023 and I can’t wait to try it out. I would definitely recommend giving this updated version a try, I will definitely do it.
I loved the beet shield - I hope they are able to make a sunscreen again - it is the only sunscreen i've used that didn't break my face out.
I've only tried one of their products - The Great Barrier Relief serum - but I love it! My skin can get really sensitive, and it's so nourishing, it really helps my skin calm down. I love the brand and what they stand for, so I'll definitely try some more.

Krave Beauty Beet The Sun SPF 40 PA+++ is a lightweight sunscreen that absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave any greasy residue. It provides great protection while keeping my skin smooth and hydrated throughout the day.

I purchased the Makeup Re-Wined from Krave Beauty and have to say I really enjoyed it. If double cleansing it a part of your routine then I think this is the perfect first step. The consistency isn't watery - more like a jelly. Would purchase again!

Super super impressed with their Kale-lalu-yaha chemical exfoliant!! At first I thought it was a bit pricey for what it was, but a little goes a LOOONG way, especially since I only use it 2x a week... I've had it for months and the bottle isn't even 1/8 done. Very pleased with this product!

The Matcha Hemp Hydrating Cleanser is my absolute go-to for a non-stripping and effective cleanser perfect for sensitive skin. I look forward to trying more products from KraveBeauty.

I have tried almost everything from Krave Beauty. I’m a big fan of them and have been using them for a few years now. My favorite product is Great Barrier Relief, it’s an incredible product for dry skin and a compromised skin barrier. I use it a few nights a week before moisturizer. Their Matcha Cleanser is also a great cleanser it cleans well without making my skin feel dry or tight after. This year they rereleased their SPF, it’s gone through a reformulation but it’s still one of my favorite spf’s for daily use, it’s light and blends in without a cast and doesn’t feel greasy. On top of everything I love the brands ethos and their commitment to reducing waste and slowing down.

I LOVE the brand messaging behind the product. The ideas are innovative and the brand doesn't push products just because. They do a great job with formulations!
