Everything in it is for the hours after the house goes quiet: a bath, a scent worn close, a serum, a pin for her hair and a cup of something herbal. One size throughout, nothing for the baby.
Why we built it
Most of what arrives this season is for the household. The After Hours is for one person, for one evening, and it doesn't ask her to share.
The pieces, and why
Saint Jane, Deep Sleep Bath Salts
The bath, run properly.
A magnesium soak with hyaluronic acid and peptides, softened with evening primrose, chamomile, lavender, jasmine and sacred lotus. The water turns silky as it dissolves. 12 oz.
SIDIA, SOAKED Solid Perfume
Worn close, for no one in particular.
SIDIA's SOAKED fragrance pressed into a solid balm: juniper and lemon, cypress and cedarwood, then warm amber and musk. A 0.1 oz compact that snaps shut. From Toronto.
Mienne, Body Serum
Pressed in after the bath.
Peptides, niacinamide and phyto collagen with calming adaptogens in a lightweight formula that sinks in quickly, from the Houston house Mienne. Fragrance-free, 4.7 fl oz.
MACHETE, Midi French Hair Pin in Gold
Hair up, with one hand.
A 5-inch French pin handcrafted in a polished gold finish. One pin holds a full or half updo.
DONA, The Field Herbal Tea
The last cup of the day.
Chamomile blossoms with mint, sweet Indian fennel and dried elderflower, blended in Brooklyn. Caffeine-free, about thirty cups.
