I love to purchase perfumed body oils, perfumed burning oils, preferably cherry for my home, soaps and incenses. One of my uncles told me about this store years ago. Prices are affordable and they always have lots of items on sale. They have an extensive collection of body oils and burning oils which can also be found on their website. I love shopping at Mandina. read more

Madina Industrial Corp - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Store products are AMAZING, customer service has improved, but when check out time the lines are extremely long! Line almost out the door Why? 3 windows open and all backed up because people are conducting business transactions, haggling on pricing/discounts. On 12/20/25 I was in line for an HOUR waiting to pay for my items! Then after retailers completed their transactions the line started moving, but by that time several patrons became frustrated put their items down a walked out! You have to remember there's also elderly that come into you store, no seating or assistance is provided to them. There should be a window for business transactions ONLY! read more

Let me start off by saying it's so sad when a Muslim business practices horrible customer service and underhanded business practices stealing and robbing the very community that's responsible for their success. I started out deLing with this company over 5 years ago when I noticed that they would refuse to pour a 1lb bottle of oil in front of me is when I became leary. I would smell something order a pound they would leave go in the back and come back with it already poured, get it home to notice the smell totally different oil thinner and weaker it's horrible I kept giving them chances but I've reached my breaking point today they are crooks I ordered over $500 worth of oils the day before the EID hoping and praying they are in the month of Ramadan and maybe they will practice ethically during the month but NOPE watered down like literal water no scented 18 bottles of trash. They will give you good stuff to reel you in then water down the rest. SHAME on them BE WARNED I'm going on every platform every time I think of how many people they've been doing this same thing to I'm letting people know Medina in Brooklyn on Atlantic Ave is crooks and will cut u your oils up if it's 1lb the smaller bottles they don't do it they reel you in like that if you spend money on bulk you'll be robbed I promise you. It's new stores on Atlantic Ave that sell oil and will pour a pound right in front of you a few doors from Medina go to them don't be taken advantage of like I have been for years simply because they Muslim I wanted to give the benefit of doubt DON'T DO IT. read more

Have been giving this store my business for 9 years. I went by yesterday to pick up some things for mother's day. Not only is the store supposed to close at 7pm, but I came by at 6:50pm and saw other people in the store shopping. The door was locked, and when I tried to get the man's attention at the door who was helping another customer, I was ignored. When he acknowledged me, he shooed me away. I knocked on the door to motion that it was still 5 minutes to 7 after having stood there trying to get their attention, and he aggressively shooed me away again. I needed three pounds of shea butter and a pound of jojoba oil to make body butter for mother's day. I was turned away after 9 years of giving this store my business. I will no longer be shopping here, and am EXTREMELY disappointed in this poor level of customer service after all these years. It felt so dehumanizing to be IGNORED and then turned away at a store that is so highly regarded in the community before closing time. VERY DISAPPOINTING!!! read more

Large variety oils skincare haircare..lovely perfume bottles..convenient location by Barclay Center

Ten years ago, I made my first purchase with Madina. I am finally running low on oil, so I reordered my favorite oil, expecting the same quality as previously purchased. What a disappointment! They cut my favorite oil!! How do I know? I've been wearing this oil for more than 10 years. I know my scent. I am an aromatherapist. I flipped the bottle. Uncut oil is thick, so thick it has air bubbles, and when I flipped the bottle upside down, it took the bubble 3 seconds to reach the top. I did the same flip-the-bottle test on my recent purchase of 2 pounds of carrier oil and 3-1 ounces of oils. The new carrier oils are thin, like baby oil, and there are no air bubbles. The carrier oils did not pass the bottle test, the one big bubble made it to the top in less than 2 seconds. I spent too much on 2 pounds of carrier oils and others. Madina Industrial Corp, do right by the people and community that has supported your company over the years. Integrity is not what you show others but what you do behind the wall. read more

The company is real helpful the orders came with a catalog very helpful I wish the writing wash bigger

Spent a nice piece of change listening to reviews....I flipped the coin the wrong way because the ones who said it was watered down were correct smh The other products seem to be cool but the oils are ssa, and my account is saying not found smh, I can't log in if I did want to repurchase...gotta smell the scent all the way to your nose like the retail store paper strip samples...only you pay 10x more for that hard ssa inhale smh. Pay attention to reviews & dates, I made a bad investment...all other products are good! read more

I have been coming to this shop for over 15 years, possibly much longer. I use the raw Mango and Shea butters, as well as Aloe and Cocoa butters. The selection of perfumed oils are excellent and the quality is top shelf. I have some larger bottle for years without quality and scent diminishing. The workers have a "I can help you demeanor" without being fake and outright friendly. This may be a turn-off for some customers. I think it may be a cultural thing so don't expect Little Miss/Mr Sunshines behind the counter. I haven't had a negative transaction ever. I know what I want when I go, but its best to check the site and do a little research as to products if you are a novice. The array can be intimidating if not. Rest assured you will leave a satisfied, better smelling customer. read more

These brothers used to be good now they don't care anymore. They're giving out oils that don't smell the same. Don't care when you tell them what kind of oil it is or that there's a problem. They used to fill the bottles in-front of you now they run to the back of the store out of site and when its brought out its lighter and smell is faint.All new people here now they get attitudes when people ask for a long list or if you ask to see something else all around they have losing their touch read more

This is one of those stores that I've walked by a million times but never even noticed until my girlfriend recommend we check the store out to pick up some incense. This store is huge. It is divided into two sections, one which features items like soaps, oils and incense. On the other side is more of a housewares section featuring most prominently a series of elaborate clocks on the wall. There aren't a lot of aisles, but the store is very long. The wall of incense is pretty amazing and the prices are very hard to beat. Behind the cashier counter is a wall of multi-colored scented oils that look like something out of a movie! Service was quick, but not overly friendly or rude - just right in the middle. The store was *very* popular as there was a constant flow of customers coming in who all seemed to be regulars. The next time I need incense I'll definitely be heading back to this shop. read more

Madina Industrial Corp - I melted the shea butter and this is what I found. - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I want to make it known that my 4-star rating is strictly for the products sold at this store, not for their customer service. Overview: I am a fragrance oil and shea butter enthusiast, who is always looking for new stuff, better prices, and higher quality. Being in NYC, you will see many street vendors setting up stands that sell these natural products, but many of these products are actually bought from Madina. Through this exchange, the quality of products may be reduced because vendors may cut/dilute their oils. Furthermore, the products are more expensive on the streets. A vendor will sell a 1 oz perfume bottle for $10, while the same amount is only $4 at Madina. So if you are looking for pure, uncut products that are reasonably priced, go directly to the source itself! I cannot stress enough that Madina is the go-to place for all things natural. From oils, soaps, to deodorants, and toothpaste. This is a goldmine for anyone who is trying to steer away from artificial ingredients and dangerous chemicals, and are looking for natural products. I have bought incense, perfume oils, soap, etc. from here and can attest the quality of their products. They sell items individually but you can also find them cheaper in bulk. The one caveat to this is that some products such as incense may degrade over time so don't stock up too much on incense (approx. 1 year shelf life before the fragrance dissipates). The oils, however, remain potent. The oils seem to be constantly restocked because of the amount of foot-traffic in their store. This means that you will be getting a quality product, that has NOT been sitting on a shelf for months. Website and Store: Madina has a website that is updated frequently, so you can see what is in stock and pick it up in the store (or order online). They have clearance sales and promotions regularly so keep an eye out for that. Their website is helpful as I've been to the store several times and have known exactly what I wanted. However, this means that I have had minimal interaction with the employees. I have not asked for help with anything and admittedly would not feel comfortable doing so only because of the heavy and random store traffic that can happen at any moment. I also want to point out that Madina is a brand. They have their own line of soaps, so they do not carry products from other well-known companies such as Nubian Heritage. However, you can walk a few stores down and find other brands for reasonable prices. Within the vicinity, Nubian Heritage soap will sell at $5 for 2 bars, or $3/bar.... this is much cheaper than if you were to buy it at Target or Whole Foods! Even if you don't like Madina, you can always check out the other shops nearby. read more

Madina Industrial Corp - Just some oils that I picked up from Madina for $24 total. Left to right: Egyptian Musk, Jean Paul Gaultier, Arabian Sandalwood, China Musk. - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I have been wearing Vanilla Fantasy Oil for at least 25 years. I live in Albany New York, and I used to buy it at the shop here in Albany until it closed. I searched and researched and finally found someone who knew where they ordered it from. I called Madina ordered my oil and they sent it to me. I have been buying it directly from them for at least five years and honestly everywhere I go people, comment how much they love the smell. The prices are more than reasonable, and it stays with me all day. Thank you, for making it easy for me to get the oil that I love. read more

I asked them KINDLY to ship again, because UPS has not received package, and they keep telling me to wait! The manager said to give him a call 12/26/2018 if I do not receive it, and he will "take care of it". I called him and he said "I don't know who told you that" VERY UNCARING AND IRRESPONSIBLE! There are PLENTY of other manufacturers that sell this stuff, ORDER ELSEWHERE! Their CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORRIBLE!!!!!!! read more

Madina Industrial Corp - Cosmetics & Beauty Supply Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

A budget-conscious store for my budget-conscious wallet? NO PROBLEM. Acquiring smell-goods for you or your home are no problem at Madina. Let's just say the entire wall behind the cashier is full to the gills with a enormous veriety of oils. Incense, which I happen to love, is, no lie, on the CHEAP here. 12 packs of incense sticks for $3.95.....did you hear me, 12 packs of incense sticks for $3.95! My advice, though, is stay away from the incense cones, they don't burn as effectively as the sticks. Coffins to hold the incense (I called them houses, didn't even know the correct term) start at $2.50 and there are different designs and colors to choose from. Skin care products, hair care products, holistic care products, products in bulk, you name it, Madina's got it for you. read more

Amazing incenses at such a fair price. The staff helped me look for the best selling ones and even went through the trouble to check their warehouse for a specific flavor that I wanted. Besides incenses they have great collection of all kind of Islamic related products: hijabs, prayer mats, Quran- you name it ! Overall- very satisfied with the products and service.. read more

He turned into a quiet monster. When I entered this store it was very neatly laid out and smelled so nice. They had some of the products I'm accustomed to and others I never knew/heard of. As these stores go, nice vibe and again I stress so neat. Many others I've been to different parts of New York and the world have not been the same. They're usually jam packed and you have to search hell and high waters to find what you're looking for, many times missing something new to try, OR I guess finding something new to try. Either way I don't enjoy digging through products in stores. I usually like to give my yelp reviews a little more weight by attaching pictures of what I speak of, to give readers a bit of the visual, so I took two pictures on my way in. As I proceeded to pay for my shea and aloe butters I noticed and liked their display of incense so I attempted to take a shot of that as well. The clerk suddenly said to me "no pictures, you can see any picture you want on our website and yelp" Wharp wharp whaaaaarp. I told him "oh I was only taking pictures to add to a good review on yelp". He gave no further explanations ie it's for religious reasons, nothing else was said. This has taught me that I now have to be sneaky with my picture taking. Maybe I'm too graphic and he recognized my features from said yelp *shrugs* Prior to this, the other clerk packing my purchases did say he was giving me a free bottle of lotion which I appreciate but in all honesty I won't come back to this store. NB: the pictures I took prior to our little exchange were already uploaded on to yelp and he never asked if I took any before this that would have to be taken down. I never volunteered this information so enjoy. The End. read more

As salaamu Alaikum wa Rahmatullah wa Barakaahu, Dear ummah of Muhammad, I am a native new yorker, and a long time customer of this company for shea butter, I place an order in Jan,2017 and the product I received was terrible. the shea butter has been melted down and it appears that coloring was added to the yellow butter, I provide this product to family and friends that have skin disorders like myself and as gifts for babies. I never had any issues wih he butter, I have been coming to this store since 94 when I use to vend oils. I used the raw white unprocessed shea butter for my eczema on my hands and its gotten worst, how I know the butter was the cause?, I am an alkaline vegan and drink only herbal teas and spring water so my eczema is not being flared from eating, I called about my order they was I very rude. I referred this company to many ppl whom are into making wholesome skin care products across ethnic lines, now I am worried they will think i'll of me because of his "new" product. I will never use this company again and I will alert all my brothers and friends that I refered not to buy anymore, I know this does'nt mean much but as an ummah we must treat one another with love and respect especially during theses times, I will now support "black owned business" for now own when I need shea butter, when I find a vender InshaAllaah I will update. Jazakallahu Khaira, Abu Muusaa Merrick Abdul Khabir Ibn william Ibn william Mcmillion.. this is another Indian business for good body oils, I never had issues with them yet http://nematinternational.com/ this is good vender for wholesale incence. http://www.ecclecstacy.com/resinincensesticks.html Anas ibn Malik reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, "Support your brother whether he is an oppressor or is being oppressed." It was said, "O Messenger of Allah, we help the one being oppressed but how do we help an oppressor?" The Prophet said, "By seizing his hand." In another narration, the Prophet said, "By restraining him or preventing him from committing injustice, for that is how you support him."

Sometimes a street vendor cuts the hell out of their burning oils with this or that. It is great to be able to hit a spot that sells the oil strong. And sell the cut in big bottles. These are not therapeutic grades of burning oils. A store like Enfleurage will fill that need. But they will make the home smell good. They smell nice on the body, and won't make you itch. They do carry essential oils like tea tree, hemp, and shea oils in small to massive quantities. You can cut the burning oils yourself, if you are apprehensive about placing them on your skin, or wherever. There are nice bulk selections of incense sticks, cones, and their diffusers. The soaps and Shea Butters are outstanding. There are prayer books, and meditation supplies on the other side of the store. If you like long lasting smell goods for the house, go to Madina and get your sniff on. The 16oz clearance bottles, cut with veggie glycerin, will last a long while, even if you burn daily. They have colorful floor standing electric diffusers with neon fiber optic fringe. For the bachelor pad. Prices are very reasonable. read more

I'm from Jersey and it's hard to find a place like this. Everything is stepped on or cut, so off I was in search of a spot that kept it 100%. First let me say that there are more than one of these stores on the same block. Not that it's a bad thing. Some have what the others may not stock or ran out of. Happens, I can attest to the experience. ****Tip**** Recognize that it's a middle eastern section. They pray @ certain times of the day. Doesn't mean that store is closed. I waited and was more than happy that I did. Left wall: All types of incense to burn. Sticks cones and bundles @ fair prices!! Middle Aisle: Bottle supplies jars lids Roll-ons resin rocks incense holders soaps End Caps: Oil to burn or use for fragrance. Right wall: Body creams soap bars burners religious items Counter: Straight down all aisles wall to wall oils far right essential oils. Website: Bummer! It's down not sure why. Experience: Very helpful staff, don't be shy ask they will not bite you. Some times it gets crowded because everyone comes here for the goods... The bag that comes with your order is a nice touch as you can shop with it all over. Nice catalog that comes with purchase. Clean neat store that stands out among the rest. Prices are excellent. Thank you Madina!!!! read more

Excellent prices! I've been ordering from them for a couple of years now, and they have the best price for a bulk order of crystal deodorant and they ship expeditiously. I placed an order on Saturday and it arrived by Tuesday. You can't beat that. One major draw back for me: everything you order arrives smelling like a mixture of incense and body oils. I fully understand that the store sells tons of these items but the box, packing paper, receipt, the plastic bags items are shipped in are saturated with this smell that is so unpleasant to me. I ordered a dozen bath sponges and the smell made me nauseous. If you like incense and certain body oils, it may not bother you. I threw them in the washing machine with vinegar and baking soda hoping to eliminate the odor. No such luck, I had to throw them out. That smell was taking over everything in my linen closet! The silver lining: the price was so reasonable that I'm only mildly upset. All in all, this store has a vast selection of products and good prices. read more

If you like misogynistic attitude This is the place for you.. If you like being pushed out of line this is the place for you.. I believe most of the oils are synthetic.. And not pure no matter what they say read more

Incense, burning oils, natural soaps - Madina carries them all - at really reasonable prices. In fact, most of your street vendors get their product from here at wholesale prices. It's my go-to spot for Shea Butter, tea tree oil, and black soap. Additionally, they have great natural products perfect for making a quick gift basket at a bargain. They also carry a really wide selection of burning oils - scents that you can't readily find at other vendors. In fact, the signature scent of my 20s (which I will never divulge) could only be found at Madina. The customer services is great and if they don't have something you're looking for, they'll try to help you find it elsewhere. If you're into natural products, this is the best place in Brooklyn to find them. read more

This store is very well set up and easy to find. I was a bit disappointed with their Shea collection there were only 3 options and all the same size. Their essential oil selection is nice and pretty varied. Definitely recommend. The lady who checked us out was a lot more helpful than the young man that began helping us. She seemed knowledgeable about the products. read more

I just want to say thank you!!! The Sister(from Salvador) that help me with my oils was very nice and helpful!!! I bought more than I need it. She is a very good sales person. I would definitely be back for more as soon as this finished. Salaam. read more

I have loved Madina deeply since it was just a hole in the wall that I frequented as a high school student at Brooklyn Tech more than two decades ago. Over the years it has given me so much pleasure to see it expanded and remodeled and eventually come to enjoy the success it deserves. I am neither black nor Muslim (from skin and hair care products to Islamic accoutrements, these are the primary demographics Madina serves), but the sheer assortment of tantalizing and unique incense and body oils has made this European American a die-hard customer from the beginning. And I relish withholding the origins of these unique scents from my Euro friends when they invariably inquire. The in-store experience has always been a good one for me. Sure there is the occasional customer who forgets to leave their stank ghetto attitude at the door, but customer service is always above par and I've had many experiences with the guys behind the counter going above and beyond for me -- never without my explicit gratitude and loyalty. So why only one star? Because of their website and telephone customer service. To anyone reading this, please have a look at my other reviews. This is the only venue I've ever given a single star. But the people at Madina Industrial Corp. need to address those issues because it is losing them money and long-time customers. I moved to south Brooklyn in 2009 and now live in Queens, so Madina is unfortunately quite a bit out of the way for me. All the more reason to be grateful for online ordering. Except I haven't yet been able to use the website to fulfill an order. It is very poorly designed in terms of navigability and the first time I used it, I had to refill my cart three times before attempting to check out, only to be told I didn't have a certain ID number and eventually giving up. Oh well, they just lost about $60 worth of online business. Jump ahead to me finally getting around to traveling the sizable distance to visit the place and being told by the guy that they were out of the oil I wanted. I explained my problem with the website and the guy (who was very polite despite my exasperation) looked me up in the system and gave me the proper ID number. I went online again recently and found that the ID he'd given me wasn't helpful at all. Again, YOU ARE LOSING MONEY because of the inscrutable nature of your website. Most recently, I figured I'd be smart. After finding the website useless I decided to kill two birds with one stone and drop by while visiting a friend in the area. So I called customer service to make sure they had the oils I wanted in stock and confirm the pricing before making the trip. Holy Crap! I haven't had such absolutely deplorable customer service in years. The man was curt to a fault, acted outwardly annoyed by my questions and cough-hacked into the phone multiple times without covering his mouth or even holding the receiver away. I'm no shrinking violet, but I do champion a modicum of courtesy when it comes to deciding who I give my money to and all I can say is I am within an inch of giving up. I have no idea if Madina reads their Yelp reviews, but if they do, PLEASE respond to this one to let me know that you are listening and that you care about customer loyalty. Let me know that these egregious transgressions will be addressed and brought up to snuff. The gesture alone will automatically get you the five stars your in-store service more than deserves and -- insha'allah -- going forward I'll actually be able to GIVE YOU MY MONEY without any hassles and without having to travel miles and miles away from where I live in order to avail myself of your wonderful products. read more
