Toasted Spray Tanning & Skincare

A great way to set a mood.⁠
⁠
We love all the little details that go into planning an event, like including converted airstreams! Many house photo booths, bars, lounge seating, and even manicure stations! Want one for your next event? DM us, we got you covered. . . .

Color palette check. ⁠
⁠
The best way to determine your brand's color palette is to find what moves you. We love this combination of yellows, reds, and oranges, it screams happiness, light, and fun (and delicious)!⁠
⁠
A great way to begin is to start a mood board (we love Pinterest) of images that resonate with the mood of your brand. This will help us to personify your vision! . . .

Self-care looks a bit different for everyone, wouldn’t you agree?

Today, my version of self-care is to get out of the WFH gear, put some some makeup, do my hair, get a spray tan, and go for a long walk with no destination, just to soak up some Vitamin D.

How are you practicing self-care today? . . .

It’s too hot to not beach.

But it’s safer to faux tan, so DM for an appointment! . . .

It is such an important step in your nighttime routine. The body, AND the skin use the time of rest to renew itself and when you leave your makeup on, you can prevent valuable feel turnover. The skin lacks the oxygen it needs to repair itself and fatigue lines can appear . So don’t be lazy, wash yo’ face!

Try hydrating exfoliating cleanser. It removes impurities, exfoliates, and hydrates all in one! The best part is the exfoliating beads are made from minyan wax, so they are not harsh or damaging to skin. Even sensitive skin peeps can enjoy the benefits! . . .

If it looks unassuming, its because it is.

Stripped is simple, transparent and effective skincare, with no flashy gimmicks, no influencer tactics no showy packaging, and no overpriced or complicated ingredient lists. Its just as it is – stripped of all the fluff to reveal amazing, authentic and honest products that’s brand story is rooted in social justice, sustainability, and inclusivity. I get all this from picking up a lip balm?

In a word, I am OBSESSED with Stripped Balm Bae. Since the face mask has become the new trendy accessory, I severely pulled back my makeup routine, to a more natural, easy, and healthy mix of products. So Stripped came along at the perfect time.

It offers a beautiful shine, major hydration, and proven benefits while staying true their core values – simple and easy to understand ingredients that are good for you and the planet. This gloss-to-balm lippy combines argan oil, jojoba, avocado oil, shea butter, coconut oil, just to name a few. The ever so subtle scent of vanilla and peppermint feels luxurious, yet approachable.

Stripped’s founder Melissa works hard to maintain her brand’s mission by keeping all her products under $30, a price point we can all get behind, and also supporting organizations like the Last Prisoner Project, GLAAD and the Okra Project. Although that doesn’t say much about the products or the ingredients, it does say a hell of a lot about the integrity of the brand, which to me, speaks to the quality and care that goes into each formulation.

I feel GOOD wearing this balm. Get some, you will too! . . .

I am one who layers. I layer my outfits, my jewelry, my cocktails, and of course, my fragrances. So, introduce me to a fragrance brand that is designed and formulated to do just that? Why yes, thank you, don’t mind if I do!

The Sholayered Sample Set comes with four of their popular scents. Champagne, Sugar Lychee, Mysterious Mix, and Orange Blossom. The individual formulations are so complex in and of themselves. Each one has distinct top, heart, and base notes that continue to evolve as the scent absorbs and adapts to your skin and clothing. The act of layering then becomes somewhat of an art, and the endless combinations never get dull. When you encounter one of the fragrances, you can tell immediately that there is quality in the product. Unlike its lighthearted and short-lived fragrance counterpart the body mist (which we are likely the most familiar with), which tends to be full of synthetics and alcohol, the fragrances from Sholayered have a dense richness that literally smells of quality.

A little rundown -

Champagne - smells like an afternoon in wine country. It shapes out like a sweet and juicy Moscato, cool and refreshing.



Orange Blossom - begins with bold floral overtones and fades to reveal a tart and bright base note of bitter orange



Mysterious mix - is just that – a true scent mystery. It showcases hints of musk and leather but opens up to reveal light citrus and wood.



Sugar Lychee - smells like Bali feels. Easy, sweet, refreshing, and rejuvenating, and colorful. In a word, good enough to eat.



Layering the fragrances has become somewhat of a game. You can change your scent profile at any time of day and completely change your mood. Mysterious Mix with Orange Blossom? Ready for a date night. Champagne and Sugar Lychee? Ready for brunch with the girls. Orange Blossom and Mysterious Mix… let's kill this workday and meet for cocktails after. These 4 sample fragrances will likely have you wanting to try even more from their vast line. So jump right in, it smells great in here!
