My friend Jane Reinberg sent me an interesting read from the NY Times on Rosacea. I have several clients who suffer from this misunderstood skin disorder.

Green and Gorgeous....
So, I know EVERYONE is going green for Earth Day. Go green with me at the Sandpiper boutique on Tuesday, April 22nd from 10-6pm.
New Moon Skin Care is Atlanta's first and only organic mobile green spa. All skin care products are made with certified organic ingredients, I use organic cotton linens and towels, biodegradable detergents, environmentally friendly cleaning products and, get THIS: I just traded in my SUV for a Toyota Prius! I may have downsized but I mos def did an upgrade! I'll be getting a whopping THREE times the gas mileage that I was getting in the tank that I was driving. I'm personally loving that I've driven all around for the last three days and I am still on FULL.
Celebrate the earth at the Sandpiper on Tuesday in Vinings...and again on May 1st at the Roswell Rd location! I will be donating proceeds from facials performed at both events to the Georgia Conservancy.

New Moon and The Plum
What does the New Moon have to do with The Plum? The answer is StudioPlex! I will get to a better explanation in a moment, first I must digress...
Lots of people have asked what the Daily Candy article did for my business and to say that the article has opened new doors for me would be the understatement of the universe. I've met so many great new clients and I continue to be moved at how many people are making the decision to detox from their drugstore skin care products and make a move toward organics, be it from Juice Beauty or another line of their choosing.
One email that I received in response to the DC piece was from Elicia Woodford , which resulted in another wonderful introduction to Danica Winters of The Plum Salon in the StudioPlex building. StudioPlex is located in a great historic intown Atlanta neighborhood, the Old Fourth Ward, which was the birthplace of Martin Luther King, jr. It is also home to Ebenezer Baptist Church and the famous Sweet Auburn District. Elicia and I met last week to discuss my involvement in her startup site, WhereWellness. During our meeting I happened to mention the potential need to grow outside of my tiny little loft "spa" in the upstairs of my Virginia Highlands home. She asked me if I knew of a little salon called The Plum, which I did not. Then she made the suggestion that I meet with Danica Winters, who has started an organic hair salon at StudioPlex. I called Danica almost the minute that Elicia left and scheduled a time the very next day to have a look at her space.
To say that her space is perfect for New Moon Skin Care wouldn't get the point across. It's like we were both just waiting to be introduced...she with an empty aesthetics room and me with a skin care business about to burst from the upstairs of my home. It's even decorated with nearly the exact aesthetic as the spa room that I have designed in my head. Dark walls, light furniture...a little spa womb, if you will. So, beginning this Friday, I will begin integrating my services into her salon. I am so excited about this opportunity as it will allow me to grow and extend upon my tiny menu of services. It'll be transitional there for a little while but now I can see clients on the days when Miles is not in school and on weekends without having to displace Miles and Steve.
The world needs more women like Danica and Elicia and I owe Daily Candy for bringing us all together. Strong women and female entrepreneurs are the ones that I most enjoy as company. I feel so inspired by people looking to make a change...either within themselves or helping others to achieve something new. I love the "you can do it!" attitude...hopefully it'll rub off on me as I try to. Look out for New Moon and The Plum to be a part of the launch of WhereWellness this Spring.
