about

 

dunkle authentic is a small batch makeup label.

director & makeup artist Molly Dunkle curiously started making lip balm at 12 years old & continued to explore cosmetic crafting & artistry for the next decade with the help of her environmental chemist father.

in 2013, dunkle authentic was launched & now includes a rotating lipstick collection & classic line of foundations. each ingredient has a story (candelilla wax from Texas where her mother was born), while each colour is a nod to Molly’s love for travel (Gaga’s island lipstick cues memories of her grandma’s love for skinny dipping in the Caribbean).

with a penchant for quality raw materials, transparent manufacturing & minimalist design, dunkle authentic products are curated for the strong & curious gal.
