Inside Thanks! Naturals: A Founder Story Rooted in Ritual, Gratitude, and Clean Beauty
New Obsession Alert: Unboxing Thanks! Naturals at Bubbles & Mane
We’re bringing clean, gratitude-focused beauty to Astoria, and we can’t wait for you to experience these self-care essentials.
The energy at Bubbles & Mane is hitting an all-time high! We just received our very first shipment from Thanks! Naturals, and I couldn't wait to dive into the boxes with their founder, Harley Sutton.
As a full-service beauty salon and spa here in Astoria, Queens, our mission is to curate a retail gallery that features female entrepreneurs and clean beauty. Harley’s products align perfectly with that vision, focusing on simple rituals that make a busy New York life just a little bit better.
More Than Just "Beauty" Products
What I love most about Harley’s approach is the philosophy behind the name. As she explained during our unboxing:
"We are called Thanks Naturals because we always say self-care starts with thanks. It starts with gratitude. Self-care doesn't have to be this giant luxury or occasional big splurge. It should be in the little moments."
Every piece of packaging is even designed with five positive affirmations like “You deserve to unwind” and “You are so special.”
The Lineup You Need to Know
We’re stocking the shelves with some absolute game-changers. Here are a few highlights from our unboxing session:
- The Muscle Freeze Roll-On: This is Harley’s "hero product" and a total bestseller. It’s an all-natural, fast-absorbing gel made with cooling eucalyptus, shea, and jojoba oil. Harley says it's perfect for what she calls "tech neck" or even "rolling it on annoying husbands when they're complaining." Personally, I think it's going to be a lifesaver for our bridal clients wearing heels all day!
- The Sleep Gummies: As I’m preping for our grand opening, my brain is moving a mile a minute at night. These vegan gummies use organic tapioca syrup and a blend of 5mg melatonin and L-Theanine. Harley notes, "We want intentional sleep, but not the grogginess in the morning."
- Icelandic Collagen: Found in their "Glow Gummies," this is the only ingredient Harley sources outside the US. "Iceland is the best mineral-dense ingredient source," Harley shared, "It's amazing for hair, skin, and nail growth."
