Dreaming About The Tropics? Wear Kai.

Discovered by Angela and loved by us all, Bellacara is one of the few boutiques carrying Kai. The next time you walk into the back room to pick up your SuperGoop or Oribe, take a turn around the counter and you’ll experience Kai. Kai's scented bath and body products smell heavenly! The fabulous floral fragrance will convince you there’s a bouquet of fresh flowers in the room.

I love fragrance and I wear it daily! I have my favorite signature scent, as well as a collection of fragrances to choose from depending on my mood, occasion, and season. Fragrance is a part of my wardrobe. I'm not complete without it!

But even I will acknowledge that fragrance can be tricky. Scents are subjective, and oftentimes intense. Gaye Straza, the founder of Kai started the company after years of avoiding perfumes because they did not agree with her. She made Kai to share a signature scent she fell in love with during her tropical vacations.

There are two fragrances you can choose from: Signature Kai and Kai Rose. Signature Kai features a light blend of gardenia wrapped in exotic white florals. Kai Rose maintains notes of gardenia and white florals, but adds a touch of rose. Both are intoxicating and lingering, yet soft and feminine to effortlessly blend in with your style.

Try the perfume oil in an easy-to-use rollerball or body glow dry oil spray for a lighter touch of fragrance. You can also layer your favorite fragrance starting with the body wash, coordinating body lotion/body butter, and deodorant. Seal with matching body glow dry oil spray then top off with eau de parfum or perfume body oil. Voila! Your skin will be glowing and smell amazing all day!

Summer is the best time to try a fragrance – everything is in bloom!

After spending over two decades as a professional makeup artist and in sales and management in the high-end retail and beauty industry, I decided to become an independent contractor and freelancer, starting my own business, Makeup By Celthia. I first came to Bellacara in 2017 as a resident makeup artist for Angela and have been here ever since. I specialize in runway, television, studio photography, corporate, commercial, bridal, beauty, editorial, print, and web advertising as a makeup professional. I was excited to take ownership of Bellacara in 2021! It truly is a dream come true! It has come full circle to provide the best beauty products and service through my favorite store, Bellacara!
