Where we started…
I’ve been a part of the beauty industry since 2004 so being a daymaker is part of who I am. Making people feel beautiful, appreciated, and loved is what makes my world go round.
At the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic, finding a way to connect with my clients, friends, and family became challenging since in-person appointments and events were limited. The lack of physical human connection left people feeling distant and disconnected from each other. When celebrating birthdays, weddings, and the arrival of a new baby, we had to get creative and online shopping surely became our lifeline.
If I could make people feel connected, while staying safe and healthy, I was determined to make it happen.
In November of 2020, I contracted Covid-19 and my life changed dramatically. My body suffered from the long-term effects of the virus for many, many months. The many hours spent giving my body the rest that it needed, allowed me the time to birth and nurture a new adventure. I wanted to create opportunities where you could connect and celebrate with friends and family. We started with our pre-curated gifting boxes, and then started building an amazing inventory of items that we have witnessed you gift to your friends and family all over the country. We love being a part of your stories and helping you connect with your friends and family.
Gigi Laine is named after our amazing daughters. These girls are constantly looking for a way to make people feel special and loved so it seemed natural that they be a huge part of this business. We hope that you seek out ways to connect with those you love and remind them that they’re thought of and should be celebrated!
