Gaelic for “healthy, wholesome and sound,” Follain is a mother lode for made-in-the-USA, environmentally friendly skin care, hair care and cosmetics. Alongside the namesake refillable hand soap, you’ll find sheer-but-strong Drunk Elephant sunscreen, Tammy Fender’s antioxidant-packed crèmes and favorite local lines like Amber Blue and Shamanuti, to name a few. And the apothecary-like shop’s recent Charles Street expansion has added men’s and mom and baby products, plus a bigger space for meet-the-makers events.
