Layers of Beauty is an independent beauty and lifestyle publication founded by Shreya Kulkarni.
Built around curiosity rather than a perfect shelf, the publication explores skincare, makeup, Korean beauty, luxury purchases and the everyday life around them. The aim is to make beauty feel enjoyable, understandable and considered.
A thoughtful edit, with room for you.
Our guides distinguish research from personal experience. When an article discusses a product, we explain whether it has been personally tested, what comes from the brand, and what is supported by an independent source. We do not invent results or pretend that a stock photograph is a personal review.
Shreya is based in the St. Louis area. Personal stories and firsthand reviews will be published with her own observations and photographs when they are ready.
