Pictured here is the Adventure Suitcase. Use it to cart stuff to the beach or the pool– 16” long x 12” high and 3” deep. It will easily fit an extra kaftan, some SPF, a book, phone, flask, and some candy cigarettes. It is made of heavy-duty cardboard with a special textured coating to make it last. With the addition of an old school gold coated handle, it is doubtful anyone else will have a tote this fun and stylish.

Christina's Curls
Courtney Smith was inspired by her daughter to create Cristina's Curls. Shortly after having her child, she noticed that the infant had begun to suffer greatly from eczema, sensitive skin and cradle cap. Since Courtney was a Licensed esthetician and knew the side effects that came with using sterile creams/medications, she decided to take a more holistic approach. Hence, the creation of a line of nourishing, natural, organic and handmade baby hair and body products. These are not only useful - but are much needed by so many infants and children who suffer from the same issues.
​​
These products are formulated with only the best, locally sourced ingredients that parents can trust on their precious little ones. There are no parabens, phthalates, mineral oil or petroleum used.
​​

Their Curl Enhancing Collection products are formulated to hydrate, moisturize and define, coils, kinks and curls.

Customers can either do an in-store visit or remote experience. An in-store visit begins with an exploration, and then selection, of a favorite fragrance to customize. A scent mixologist then creates some sample blends, and customers try them on the skin. One can step outside to clear their nose and choose which blend to bottle up. The team bottles every scent fresh in-store. The last step is choosing a label color and a label name for each custom fragrance blend.
​​
As to the remote process, step one is the Explorer Box, which contains nine sample bottles of the core fragrances. Customers then select their favorite one to customize. The last step is choosing their favorite blend and deciding on a label color and name for the custom fragrance.
