As another year draws to a close, we join individuals and companies around the world in an end of the year review. It is a valuable time to look back over annual progress and reflect on important measurables. At Gentle Giant, some of the numbers we evaluate include jobs booked, hours worked, revenue gained,  stairs climbed  and gallons of water consumed to stay hydrated on the job. Water: one of the very basic building blocks of life. Along with food and oxygen, it is a crucial part of surviving and thriving in daily life. As Leonardo da Vinci once said, “water is the driving force of all nature.” At Gentle Giant, we spend a lot of time talking about, thinking about and drinking water. As a company founded and built by athletes, we recognize the importance of staying hydrated to stay healthy. On some of the hottest days of the year, our livelihood depends on our ability to keep up with the inevitable dehydration that comes with outdoor manual labor. Our Giants take a ...

There are so many innovative tips and tricks, and so many beautiful up-and-coming lash artists out there. What an amazing community we work in! Here’s what I’m loving on the interweb right now!

My favorite combo with a gel patch is the  Nexcare blue tape    For me, the duo is like heaven. It provides a perfect fit every time...

Despite the fact that I love beauty products, I’m not a makeup girl; which is why I definitely never thought I'd be an eyelash extensions one. While I appreciate all things complexion-enhancing—like  sheer foundations ,  dewy highlighters , and pretty peach blushes—I only break out mascara on my birthday, when I have a big meeting, or if I’m going to a wedding. Even then, it’s the very subtle  Clinique Naturally Glossy in Brown  or my trusty tube of  YSL Babydoll  if I’m “going big.” So, ahead of my own wedding, it was very out of character for me to make an appointment to get lash extensions. It was even more out of character that I absolutely freaking loved them. My first appointment was three weeks before to “try them out.” Within a month, I went back two more times: The day before my flight (about a week out from my wedding day), and right before I left for my honeymoon. Obsession is an understatement. Here’s the thing I discovered about eyelash ex...
