Stripes Beauty held an exclusive “Vag of Honor” Ride with SoulCycle’s Laurie Cole on Sunday, August 10th at The Barn in Bridgehampton. I’m just realizing that the “Hotter than Ever” pop-up is a hot flash pun! Really good stuff here, no notes.
Stripes Beauty was founded by the iconic Naomi Watts after she started experiencing perimenopausal symptoms at just 36. Throughout that experience, she realized that there was little support for women experiencing changes in estrogen and other hormonal and bodily shifts. So, she founded Beauty Stripes to focus on women in midlife.
The Hotter Than Ever Pop-Up event highlights the energy that the Barn curates every summer, bringing unforgettable moments of community and wellness to Bridgehampton. Also, just FYI, The Barn has Dreamy Coffee (IYKYK).
You could hear Laurie’s powerful energy and voice from the arrival, and the parking lot was packed with SoulCylers for the mid-morning “Vag of Honor Ride.”
Just saying, you could have convinced me that Naomi Watts is still 36! Check out Naomi’s full product selection here!
Stripes is doing important work—destigmatizing menopause and the natural changes that happen to women’s bodies during midlife. Menopause is part of life, but it shouldn’t be anything to be shy about. It’s refreshing to see a brand approach such an important part of life with a little dry humor.
The brand leans in with humor, heart, and a genuine effort to improve the lives of women everywhere with solutions for the whole body, including their flagship product, The Vag of Honor (skincare for down there).
In a world saturated with beauty products, it’s refreshing to see Stripes Beauty’s focus on the whole body, on comfort, and on its commitment to women’s health beyond what is seen.
Who says beauty knows no pain? Stripes isn’t interested in “aging gracefully,” their focus is on “aging comfortably.” Honestly, though, their mission and methods are clear, and I’ll let their team have the last word:
“Our vision is to finally bring menopause out of the shadows, creating a place where people can find holistic solutions that soothe their body and mind, no matter where they are in their menopause journey.”
