SOOTHING SELF-CARE
If you’re managing joint pain from a sports injury or looking for natural relief for chronic pain, Maui Grown Remedies’ CBD Transdermal Nanogel is a game changer. Popular in high-end spas like The Waldorf Astoria Grand Wailea, this nanogel offers fast-acting relief thanks to its transdermal delivery system, which means the CBD penetrates quickly into the targeted area. After a summer knee injury, I experienced significant improvement using this nanogel—and it worked for my teen son, who needed a natural anti-inflammatory for nerve pain in his hand after suffering from a repetitive stress injury. Infused with grapefruit extract, this gel has limonene, a compound known for its anti-inflammatory and calming properties.

ARTFUL TOTE
A cute and well-made tote is a closet staple and this one by EVELYN & KATE, a business created by childhood friends and artists Evelyn and Kate, is super fun and unique thanks to the art it was inspired by. The Westie Original Tote features co-founder Kate’s West Highland Terriers Willie and Muffin adorably romping through a sea of roses. The bag is made with sturdy, high-quality canvas and leather straps and has two large, deep pockets on the front and two inside to keep things organized. Each bag can also be paired with a matching Westie keychain or silk scarf and there are lots more gorgeous designs inspired by their florals, abstract landscapes, and Impressionist art.
