SEPTEMBER MONTHLY PICKS
September brings fun sensations of starts and new beginnings.
We kicked off this month with the launch of the LESSE Essential Facial, an incredible 75-minute healing treatment that gives you the perfect after-summer glow. The HH team is obsessed with LESSE and we can't wait for you to experience it for yourself. Book your facial here.
As we transition seasons later this month, we're paying extra attention to repairing UV damage from a summer in the sun—look for vitamin C, AHAs and retinol to bring out your best skin this time of year.
Additionally, outdoor dinners, bike rides along the lakeshore, and an abundance of locally grown tomatoes are filling our September days.
USING
TARA:
Health Hut Hand Soap & Body Wash in Basil - Peppermint and Blood Orange, LESSE Soothing Lip Balm, Ametta After Sun Collagen Masks for post-sun care, and Tata Harper Resurfacing Serum, my ultimate end-of-summer skincare product.
JENNY:
I love a generous layer of LESSE Essential Moisturizer before I go to bed for a dose of vitamin C and hydration — an after sun must.
Getting sudsy in the shower with Health Hut's spa-worthy Hand Soap & Body Wash in Eucalyptus, Vetiver, Petitgrain. I'm looking forward to the refill coming later this month!
Liis Lucienne Eau de Parfum is all that I want to smell of on these hot to cool days.
MELISSA:
Abel Natural Room Spray - Scene 02 as a perfume! I've always loved this scent and finally decided to try it as spritz on my body and was pleasantly surprised with the results.
SARAH:
Good Juju Scalp Care Shampoo Bar. LESSE Regeneration Mist is the most refreshing scent and does a great job at repairing my sun exposed skin back to its best health.
