A modern facial studio that creates destination for beauty and wellness to coexist.
Project Description
We're expanding!
eleMINT is a physical wellness space and social community for skincare. Our mission is to elevate skin health and wellbeing through a holistic, transformative skincare experience that is inclusive, accessible and affordable.
Beauty has shifted to encompass a unique focus on wellness. And it’s about time! Historically, the primary destination for quality skincare has been luxurious spas. The problem is, spas are outdated, pretentious, expensive, impersonal and lack diversity.
We know that:
- The modern consumer craves a more personalized skincare experience, focused on preventive techniques, wellbeing and education.
- A holistic approach with a sensible price point that redefines skincare as a lifestyle, rather than a luxury.
- Safe, nontoxic beauty options that nourish skin without compromising health.
At eleMINT, we provide a modern solution for skin health!
We currently operate out of one treatment room, in a shared space, with one esthetician. Our new location will employ more estheticians, have multiple treatment rooms, increased retail offerings and more in-store events. We're claiming space as the official dedicated space for skin.
THIS IS YOUR COMMUNITY
A vibrant space with cultural influence that recognizes the importance of inclusivity. A space that resonates and understands that “good skin” is an active pursuit of self-acceptance and emotional wellbeing. A space whose vibe matches your energy. A space that reflects your individual power and purpose. A space that is not bound to societal beauty norms. A space that inspires, supports and nurtures YOUR BEST SELF.
WE NEED YOU
We will use the funds backed by this campaign to secure our new location, renovate the space, hire staff, improve our branding/marketing, expand our retail product options and elevate our in-store events.
OUR FOUNDER
eleMINT was founded by Shauntavia Ward, a Nurse Practitioner, who after 8 years in medicine, craved a deeper connection with inspiring women to feel good about themselves, in their most natural state. #inyourelemint
