Apply, Remove, Exfoliate: Choosing the Right Disposable Wipes

2014 ISPA Conference & Expo: An Event to Remember
This year we returned to the International Spa Association (ISPA) Conference & Expo in Las Vegas, NV. Each year our busy show schedule forces us to make tough decisions.

Cosmoprof Recap 2014
When it’s the dead of summer, and you find yourself in Vegas, that can only mean one thing: it’s time for Cosmoprof again. Don’t get too jealous. There’s not enough time for Team Intrinsics to enjoy the spoils of Sin City. There were no slots, prime rib buffets, or shows for Lea Ann, Kristi, and Stacy. They were hard at work meeting with […]

Intrinsics Partner Spotlight: Larry Gaynor of TNG
Larry Gaynor, the President and CEO of TNG, founded his company all the way back in 1985. Almost 30 years ago, when his company was known simply as Nailco, he felt like he had his hand on the pulse of what manicurists needed, and he started doing what he could to meet those demands.
ISPA, YOUSPA, WE ALL SPA
The word “reveal” carries with it a certain cachet. Whether you’re revealing a new product or a new service, it’s easy to get pumped up when “reveal” is involved. So we’re obviously excited to be featured prominently in ISPA’s April Reveal Box for spa professionals.
IECSC Recap: Always A Big Time In The Big Apple
Before we get too far into April we needed to discuss how much we always enjoy IECSC. And that’s not just because it’s in NYC. The folks in the Big Apple and surrounding areas always come prepared to have fun, as well as spend a ton. These customers come in on a mission, and they […]

IECSC: On The Road Again
The trade show circuit shows no mercy. What used to be a seasonal experience has become a yearlong affair. And so as March approaches, we’re once again packing our bags, stuffing them full, and waiting to get dinged by the airlines yet again for over-packing.
ISSE: Kilts, Mullets, And Stilts
We know. That’s a serious blog title. But what do kilts, mullets, and stilts have in common? These are all phenomena we encountered when we attended the International Salon and Spa Expo (ISSE) back at the end of January in Long Beach, CA. While we’re not sure what any of these sightings had to do […]
For ISSE, We’re Goin’ Back To Cali
