Yesterday I was privileged to attend the Shea Radiance launch party at the beautiful Vantage House in Columbia, MD. As you may know, Shea Radiance JUST launched in Target stores nationwide and celebrated a huge milestone in the company’s history. While at the event, the owner, Funlayo, shared how she had her vision for her, once a small start up, business and that her dream was have her products sold in Target! It was so inspiring to hear her story and to see her dream become a reality! I have nothing but great things to say about this entire product line. EVERY product I have tried has been amazing. I will be a long-time fan of this brand and am so happy it is Target so more of you can see what this hype is about lol! The event was very posh, west-African inspired decor, the right touches on everything!
Oh but you wanna know something ironic….it’s NOT, well not yet, sold in the Target near me (Rio in Gaithersburg) lmao! Of course, just my luck go figure lol
Here’s some pics from the event!
That’s Funlayo and I, she is such a beautiful person and has a beautiful spirit. It’s so refreshing to come across genuine, humble people. Wish her nothing but success!
Funlayo and her family. She co-founded Shea Radiance with her husband, Shola, in 2005.
Some of the goodies on display. They went above and beyond with the beautiful decorations and had their products all over the place to try out! I am in love with the packaging and a huge fan of pump bottles lol
Funlayo and some hair models. I didn’t catch the lady on the far left’s name but the lady on the far right is @stylemeelise, the official Shea Radiance Spokeswoman (she is GORGEOUS btw) and next to her is @kortomomolu, she was a contestant on the 5th season of Project Runway.
Me and fellow DMV bloggers (left to right) Jess of Hair Gets Kinky, Crystal of Kinky Hair Affair and Alex of The Good hair Blog. They are all so beautiful!
Me and Alex :o)
I had a great time and am thankful to the folks at Shea Radiance for inviting me to share such a special occasion! Oh and we got little goodie bags with sample sizes of their products (which will be gone asap!) and some other cute items. BE SURE you try this stuff out! If you see it at Target grab it! ;o)
