Lather Store Grand Opening

Filed Under Bath & Body, Blog, Events, Men | Leave a Comment

The Lather Store was abuzz last night with amazingly scented products, celebrity arrivals and samples galore at the Grand Opening of their beautiful and sleek new store on Colorado Boulevard in Old Town Pasadena, Ca.

We could here the murmur of excitement as we approached the store and as we walked in we were met with the wonderfully uplifting scent of Lather’s most popular fragrance: Bamboo Lemongrass. The scent is both energizing and a perfect modern blend, great for both sexes. On women it smells clean and fresh with a twist of citrus, on men it smells masculine and urban mixing perfectly with classic mens cologne scents like vetyver, amber and pepper.

Of the Bamboo Lemongrass Collection the body creme and foaming body scrub stand out as particularly pampering. The body creme is thick, creamy and very luxurious while the scrub is a unique paste of bamboo and lemongrass which foams when you add water, very scrubby!

Other luxurious and pampering offerings were swirled amongst edible treats and raspberry champagne cocktails, all inspired by the natural ingredients in Lather’s line.

As we left for the evening we felt truly pampered with our Lather swag bags in hand. The treats included:

Bamboo Lemongrass Body Creme
Bamboo Lemongrass Foaming Body Scrub
AHA (alpha hydroxy acid) Hand Creme with evening primrose
Ultra Light Face Lotion
Vetivert & Grapefruit Soap

Stop by and help Lather celebrate this Saturday October 13th from 10AM till 11PM. Complimentary snacks and beverages will be served. Enjoy a 17% discount all day long!
