Be still my heart! This sweet little human that brings so much joy to our family. This sweet elf has been mamas helper everyday the last few weeks. Although the guilt of having her at work with me has been eating me up she absolutely loves coming. She’s up early everyday to pack her lunch and can’t wait to get out the door. She welcomes the customers, tells them all how old she is by holding up her four fingers and when they leave she wishes them all a Merry Christmas.... It’s the hard choice we’ve had to make or close our doors right now. One of the many layers of 2020, balancing family and work. : We are truly thankful for the understanding and our supportive clients and the love of our community. . . This sweet elf and her mama look forward to seeing you through those boutique doors and helping you pick out the most beautiful gifts as we head into the last week before Christmas . . .

ONE THING YOU WILL NEVER SEE ME SHARE. *And y’all know I share most things* My personal skin care regime ~ WHY - after being an esthetician for over a decade ( yep 12.5 years to be exact) and working with 100’s of clients I’ve learned how different each of our skincare needs can be. How one product or regime can work so wonderfully for one client and completely opposite for another! ... How often I’ve heard of clients seeing an ad for particular products and purchased only to have their skin break out more or cause irritation. Investing hundreds and hundreds of dollars into skin care regimes to see absolutely no results or worse then when they started. We are often overwhelmed & inundated by the ads, direct sales companies or influencers pushing the next best skincare product. Most with no skincare training at all. What works for me or them may not necessarily work for you. And why I don’t share my personal skin care regime! Maybe a favourite product I love though from time to time I am here to serve my client, educate, ask the questions, take my knowledge & education to help you find the skin care products suited JUST for YOU! What does your skin need to be healthy? We will find out together! It’s worth taking the time and effort to figure it out. We are virtually here for you still As always offering complimentary skin care analysis via online, phone call or texts. . Photo credit Alexandra Kurta Photography Model Carinna Trueman

We are asking you to support, wherever possible, local business during the time by: Purchasing gift certificates. This an easy way to help businesses financially now, while saving for the future. Scheduling a service for later. Call that business and schedule an appointment or order at a later date. Inquire about delivery options from the business or through a local courier.... Buy as many goods, supplies and other items (food, cleaning, pharmacy, repairs, etc.) from a local manufacturer or supplier. Reach out to our local businesses directly and see if they have an online, or another innovative way, to provide their products or services. Stay healthy and stay informed
