One of my favorite parts of our new space? The service rooms! Chloe grabbed this shot while I was in a makeup lesson in one room and was doing Color Analysis in the other. Having dedicated spaces for these services has completely changed the Shimmer experience and I just love seeing them in action!

Ana is back this Thursday for Color Analysis appointments, plus we also have lots of makeup lesson openings available! Whether you’re looking to build a routine that actually works for you, learn new techniques, or finally figure out which colors make you shine, we’d love to help. You can book now on shopshimmerbeauty.com.

If you’ve been waiting for Skin Dew to come back, keep an eye out tomorrow! According to the tracking number, it should be in tomorrow! I’ll keep you posted! There may be a little surprise for you tomorrow, too. 😉

As you know, I’m extra intentional about the brands I bring into Shimmer. It’s my whole thing! One Love Organics is female-founded, manufactures their products in their own ECOCERT-certified facility, is certified cruelty-free through PETA, and has earned Green America’s highest-level Gold Certified Business designation. Most importantly, they make products that consistently earn a permanent spot in customers’ routines.

Yes, many of the brands we carry can also be found at large retailers like Target, Whole Foods, Sephora, and Ulta. But if you love having an independent boutiques in your community, it’s important to be just as intentional about where you make your purchase. Every time you choose to shop through an independent retailer, you’re helping create the kind of downtown we all want to spend time in…a community filled with unique small businesses and spaces that make us proud of where we live.

Thank you for helping make downtown a little more vibrant, one purchase at a time.

Lauren is a nurse who wanted to learn a few simple ways to feel a little more put together for everyday life without adding a complicated routine to her mornings.

We focused on easy, multipurpose products, a few personalized techniques, and skincare that made sense for her lifestyle.

A few minutes after her Beauty Basics lesson, she sent me this car selfie, and I immediately knew I had share it because she looked so fresh and confident! This is exactly what these lessons are all about. Thanks for being awesome, Lauren!
