Luxury beauty has gotten a makeover in the self-care and fragrance department with the on the rise indie brand Lifetherapy. This female founded indie brand based in Chicago is changing the market by combining one-of-a-kind scents and highly effective ingredients to create luxurious, good-for-you, high quality products.

Lifetherapy was created with the fundamental belief that our frame of mind combined with a bit of self-nurturing creates positivity for ourselves and those around us. Keeping this guiding principle in mind Lifetherapy uses the power of scent and the elements of color and texture fused with extraordinary ingredients to evoke positive experiences and emotions for the mind, the body and the spirit. These high-quality products are just what everyone needs for that extra bit of TLC everyone is needing especially during these current unpredictable times.

With gentle bubbling bath & body washes, moisturizing body lotions, hydrating & non-greasy handcrémes, Lifetherapy infuses the art of subtle fragrance with indulgent self-care products made with intention. Keeping with the belief that living well should be all encompassing all Lifetherapy body products are formulated without sulfates, mineral oil, petroleum, formaldehyde, propylene glycol, or parabens. The products are also cruelty-free, vegan friendly, gluten-free and proudly made in the USA.

Lifetherapy comes in 5 signature scents each meant to induce or reward feelings of being loved, inspired, grounded, energized and transformed.

All Lifetherapy products are subtle reminders to live positively and take care of yourself. Real beauty is created through the choices we make each day to live mindfully and intentionally. Every moment is an opportunity to make a conscious choice to choose your mood.

What do get when you have the fabulous Kandee Johnson host a party for Valerie Anderson’s new luxury beauty line? That’s simple one hell of a kick ass beauty launch party with all the trimmings at the popular West Hollywood hotspot, the Doheny Room.

After years of making a name for herself in the nail industry Valerie Anderson finally is sharing a piece of her passion with the world. From owning her own nail salon Valerie realized two things:  the market had few high-end nail brands, and from the luxury brands available even less of them could really compete with the quality of well-known brands like OPI. Out of the desire to provide clients with quality, luxury, and a product that was actually just good for your nails Achi was born.

Fast forward through months of  trials, and Japanese chemist formulas and you finally have the unrivaled 45 color, sweet strawberry scented Achi gel polish collection. Not only is this line strawberry scented, but it’s natural, cruelty free, and has a formaldehyde-free formula that gives you pigment for days. The line also has its own signature top and base coats as well.

Creating a scented polish using a natural fragrance is no easy feat, which is why it took months of perfecting.  According to Valerie, “the amount of oil to use without affecting the adhesion and pigmentation was quite the challenge. But these types of beauty products need precise results to develop a long-lasting nail gel.”

Valerie’s infiltration into the beauty market with Achi doesn’t stop at gel nail polishes, but she will also be launching a single finger curing LED lamp allowing for a convenient and user-friendly gel application. The brand is also launching a line of premium yellow and rose gold plated tweezers.

Between the yummy bites, the cocktails from TY KU, the wine from Electric Sky Wine, massages from Manly Handz, the Achi gel manicures, and the great beauty and nail trend tips from Kandee Johnson the Achi brand launched itself into the beauty world with a bang. Leaving launch attendees happy, relaxed, and already obsessed with all things Achi to come.
