WHat's your favorite Annmarie Gianni Skin Care routine?

I cleanse my face with the Citrus mint cleanser in the shower, I then put the coconut body oil on my skin while it’s still a tad damp after showering, spritz my face with the neroli toning mist, and finish with putting the Herbal Facial Oil for Natural and Combination skin. Heavenly!

WHat's your favorite way to re-charge?

Self care! A luxurious amount of sleep (8+ hours), a massage, a weekend getaway or day trip, a flotation session, or a spa day.

Name one thing on your bucket list.

I would love to drive cross country.

What do you love about working with ASC?

Where do I start? The sense of peace and empowerment you feel working at ASC is invaluable. Everyone is truly engaged in their roles and there is a palpable environment of respect and collaboration. Also, feeling good about supporting a company that is so invested in all aspects of their product (sustainable packaging, wildcrafted & made with the best of intentions, etc) is the icing on the cake!

If you were to create a tea blend, what would it contain?
