Who We Are
Tower 28 is building a world where beauty is accessible, inclusive, and sensitive. We want to push the boundaries of what beauty should be : a mix of high quality, high standards, and high levels of fun. We want to be a beauty big sister, who knows what's right (clean, non-toxic, vegan, cruelty-free) but also knows how to have a good time (clean beauty doesn't have to be so serious!).
