How Team RLC is Getting Through Quarantine

Recently, our VP of Philanthropy & Ethos, Dariel Sidney, sent out an email titled “3 Things Around the Water Cooler”. It allowed the team at RevitaLash Cosmetics to catch up, share what we’ve been up to, and feel connected, all from the comfort and safety of our homes. As we’ve all worked to flatten the curve, we’ve each had our own personal learning curve on how to remain happy, healthy, and sane from the confines of our homes. Maintaining a sense of community has played a huge factor in helping us all feel sane and connected, and we couldn’t be luckier to have that within this amazing organization. We found that many answers had consistent themes – baking, cooking, working out, and entertainment. Here’s some of things helping our team and getting us through to the other side. 

In the Kitchen

As dining out became impossible, many of us had no choice but to reacquaint ourselves with our kitchens and start getting creative. The team at RevitaLash Cosmetics has been cooking and baking up a storm, and banana bread has been a popular theme (unsurprisingly). Here are some of our favorites recipes we’ve tried so far!

Cranberry-Rosemary One-Pan Chicken

Coconut Milk Chicken and Sweet Potatoes

Barefoot  Contessa Panzanella

Peanut Butter Cookies

Homemade Cavatelli with Leftover Sauce

Garlic Roasted Potatoes

Lashes & Brows

What better time than quarantine to get your lashes and brows looking their best? Much of team RLC has used this time to get consistent with their use of serums. We look forward to being back in the office soon with bat-worthy lashes and bold, beautiful brows!

Selfcare

From daily walks to Zoom classes, team RLC has taken this time to dedicate themselves to selfcare. Without daily commutes or being able to drive to gyms and studios, we have even more time in our day to do something to better our minds and bodies. Here’s a few of our favorite workouts, meditation apps and more:

Alo Moves

Melissa Wood Health

Ventura Fitness Collective

Insight Timer

Reconnecting & Staying Connected

One of the biggest silver-linings during quarantine is being able to spend quality time with our families. We’ve all been able to enjoy more family dinners, more frequent video chatting with friends and far away family, and practicing gratitude for it all. 

Entertainment

What better time to dig into a new book or series than now? Here are some of our teams’ recommendations for movies, shows, reads and more!

Movies

  • The Music Man
  • The James Bond Series
  • The Batman Series 

Books

  • Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

Games

All Things Beauty

From finessing skincare routines, putting down the hot tools, or experimenting with different makeup looks, team RLC is taking advantage of this time by stepping up their beauty game. There’s no better time than quarantine to try new products and techniques or take a break from your usual beauty routine and give your skin and hair a vacation. Here’s a few of our favorite skin, hair and makeup products that we can’t get enough of!

OUAI Wave Spray – This wave spray is perfect for all hair types, smells like a dream, and doesn’t leave hair crunch or dry.
