We're back!

Hi guys!

Happy new year! Boy, are we glad it's 2021!

We're back on the blog! We know it's been awhile...

We started out 2020 with every intention to keep up the blog with live updates, tutorials, press, and just all around fun content. Safe to say, 2020 didn't go as planned...

2020 was hectic to say the least, and we got so overwhelmed that we didn't prioritize writing blog posts. Between COVID-19 and the new normal we were faced with to continuing to launch new products, writing blog posts got lost along the way. We're sorry!

We're making a promise to check in with you guys more often here, whether it's about new launches, office life, or even just a few pictures of dogs. (because who doesn't want to see that?)

We wanted to take some time to thank you all for your support during these crazy times. We are so thankful to have such amazing customers and brand partners!

Since we are late on our blog posts, here's a little recap as to what our last year was like.....

NCLA Launches Hands Clean!

We launched a hand sanitizer line! Hands Clean launched in April 2020, with a 65% alcohol formula. We of course had to include the best-smelling scents to make sanitizing a bit funner! With flavors like Eucalyptus, Peach, Watermelon and Lavender, there's a scent for everyone. Although we did not plan to launch sanitizers, we had to think fast under our new circumstances. You can still shop Hands Clean on our website, in Anthropologie stores, and on Revolve!

NCLA Beauty launches in Cult Beauty! 🇬🇧

To all of our UK babes, in June 2020 NCLA launched on Cult Beauty, the UK mecca of beauty! We are so thrilled to be available and more readily accessible in the UK and love our Cult Beauty partners! 🇬🇧

Nordstrom Launch!

This year, we launched in TWO Nordstrom's Pop In Events. NCLA launched in the Beauty Pop In and the Holiday Pop In! We can't tell you how surreal it was to walk into a Nordstrom and see our products on the shelves. We are honored to have been picked to be amongst so many amazing brands. The best part? We actually SOLD OUT!

NEW Lipsticks!

To those who have been around awhile, you know how amazing our lipstick formula is. But, the packaging didn't reflect the formula. After receiving customer complaints that the cap never stayed on the lipstick tube, we knew we had to redesign. We'll be the first to admit that the first design of lipsticks was not our best work! Our new lipsticks are now available in brand new packaging, and the caps stay on this time! We are in LOVE with this new look!

NEW Glossed Lip Glosses!

Have you met our all new lip glosses? Glossed is an ultra shiny, buttery soft lip gloss formula that packs color and shine, while being long-lasting and not-sticky! All of the gorgeous, wearable shades are vegan and cruelty free.

Holiday Lip Care Gift Sets

We launched 5 holiday lip care duos: Pink Champagne, Watermelon, Peach, and two limited edition holiday scents Peppermint Mocha + Pumpkin spice. We can't believe these SOLD OUT!

NCLA Beauty x Fab Fit Fun

The cult favorite So Rich cuticle oil formula made a debut in Fab Fit Fun's Fall/Winter box! It was such an honor to be able to reach so many new customers, and be alongside so many amazing brands.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for all of your support! We have so much in the works, and can hardly wait to share with you. We love to hear from you, tell us what you like! (or don't like!). We hope 2021 brings us all blessings, health, and happiness.

Love,

Elin & Anh-Thu
