City Chemist

The owners of Dumbo pharmacy Bridge Apothecary have joined forces with New Jersey makeup maven Diana L. Ross (she manages another big beauty boutique, Town and Country Apothecary, across the Hudson) to run this gleaming white, 2,900-square-foot pharmacy. Makeup fiends can take advantage of upscale beauty brands, such as Paula Dorf, Ramy (who will be holding monthly brow-shaping workshops) and Caudalie. Those with a sweet tooth won’t want to skip the bulk candy section ($8–$12 per pound).
