Booklover Galentine (Pau’s Version)
Hello Skincare and Book girlies!💖 Let’s get a bit personal, before my love and passion for skincare I had (have) been a booklover since high school. First series I read (voluntarily) was The Chronicles of Vladimir Tod, which was fitting considering I was going through high school at the time. It was the first time that my mind opened up to quote Sam Puckett from iCarly: “These things are great, it's like TV in your head”.
Let’s fast forward to January 2025: I stumbled upon an ad for a booklover galentine’s day activity here in PR. When I saw that I quickly sent a DM to Pau (@paau_nicole) and immediately reserved my spot to the galentine; excitement filled me cause I would connect with book lovers like me. As I started planning the outfit, Pau mentioned looking into local brands to collaborate for some goodie bags. As previously stated: I love skincare and books; therefore I decided to approach Pau about collaborating for this event. She jumped at my approach stating: “book girlies + skincare= 💘”. From there a beautiful collaboration commenced.
I quickly got down to making the face lotions based on the amount that she stated according to how many people would be going (a lot). Here I faced this big and exciting project that meant a lot to me; the chance and the fact that I got to combine two of my loves. I diligently made the face lotions and made origami hearts (which I don’t understand why I attempted this because historically I’ve been terrible at origami, clearly God was on my side this time). I delivered the goodies and waited until the day of the galentine to partake in this joyous day and activities!
The day arrived, and I had the joy of meeting so many book girlies. Seeing our product in their hands was incredibly rewarding. It's exciting to see such a large community of readers in Puerto Rico; the event even had a cutoff due to high demand!
From the bottom of my heart, I hope the book girlies who attended enjoyed the event and will continue to make isel beauty part of their skincare routine for hydrated, glowing skin. A hydrated and glowy book girlie is the best book girlie!
Con amor 💖,
Fran
