The year was 2020, and much like the rest of the world, we entered March wondering what was in store for us. Here we are, one year later, and continuously adjusting to the unknown. Leave it to 2020 to make a two-week shut-down last a whole freakin’ YEAR!! Just like you, I’ve been waiting oh so patiently to resume to a life where hitting the town with your girl gang isn’t prohibited, and a sandy beach with a fruity drink in hand is just a flight away. For now, we will have to settle for the days getting warmer and longer, restrictions slowly getting loosened, and the fact that the dreadful cold snap we just experienced is as over as our 2020 vacation plans.
March is that awkward transition month, where one day it’s below zero, and the next, a tropical 3 degrees. Almost as as the month of March is the new dating world during Covid-times. (Listen, single Sugar Babes, it’s not like you didn’t stop dating just because the world may have stopped – whether it’s a safe stroll through the park, or a hot n spicy Zoom date, we know y’all have been getting your fix somehow!) So just because we can’t escape to some actual tropical climates or are hesitant to #GetPhysical with a new bae, doesn’t mean you should forget about yourself!
We have been THROUGH IT, but it is oh so important to take care of ourselves and our mental health. Our in-person service providers are still here for us, so why not be there for them? Whether it’s booking in with your much-loved massage therapist, hitting up your fav lash tech for a new set of peepers, or sitting through a few hours of pain for some body art from a killer artist, it’s a perfect time to support our local businesses while also treating ourselves! We’re all experiencing Covid-fatigue from not being able to see family or sweat it all out at our favourite fitness studios. I’m telling y’all – book an appointment with our incredible Sugar Ninja! Honestly, at this point a Brazilian is the closest some of us are getting to some real action these days… PLUS, Dinna is extending her February sale into March! You got it – 15% off body sugaring and lash lifts (excluding facial waxing).
As a final note, a friend of our Sugarista has been recently diagnosed with breast cancer. In an effort to help raise funds for her aftercare, a raffle has been organized with some stellar prizes! Click here to browse the many options and for instructions on how to purchase your tickets. Any and all funds raised in the raffle is greatly appreciated.
And while it may not feel like there is much to “celebrate” after battling the odds for a year, keep looking at those silver linings, my Sugar Queens. Stay safe, healthy, and smart out there. And of course, don’t be a stranger to Sugar Body Bar!
With love from afar,
