Turns out unboxing skincare with your bestie is approximately 10% product knowledge and 90% uncontrollable laughter. 😂

With England kicking off tonight, it felt like the perfect time to share what this whirlwind of a week has led to. 🇬🇧⚽️

Since sharing my Green Compass update, I’ve had so many calls, texts, check-ins, and conversations about what could be next. Thank you. Truly. I’ve had a lot to think through, and I’m so grateful to everyone who reached out.

For those of you who don’t know, both of my parents are from England, and my entire extended family still lives there.

A few years ago, after COVID, my cousin realized she was ready for a career change. She decided to link arms with a social selling company because she genuinely loved the products and wanted something different from the corporate grind. She’s been with them ever since, and we’ve had so much fun comparing notes and cheering each other on from opposite sides of the pond.

Then, right as I found myself wondering what was next, she let me know they were gearing up to launch in the U.S.

I still can’t get over the timing.

The more I learned, the more everything just clicked. Once I shared it with the people I trust most and saw that their excitement matched mine, I knew. There were simply too many pieces that felt too good to ignore…but I’ll save those for another post. 😉

A little slice of England finding its way to America. Something fresh. Something fun. Something completely different than what I’ve shared over the last seven and a half years. And the chance to help launch an incredible brand here in the U.S., one that’s already spent the last 22 years building a loyal following in England.

I have a feeling so many of you are going to be excited about this too. 🇬🇧

I’ll share more soon… but if you’re already curious, my inbox is open. by @emilyyybeale

Wondering what all my little hints have been about? 👀

I’ve been a little quiet over here because we’ve been in Tampa for Hatch’s Flag Football Nationals 🏈, but we are heading home, and I get to share what I’ve been working on…

If you know me, you know I never thought I’d build something from the beginning again.

After everything I’ve experienced over the last eight years, my standards were incredibly high, and I definitely wasn’t looking for “the next thing.”

But with the changes happening at Green Compass, one conversation with my cousin in England came along at exactly the right time.

She introduced me to a British brand that somehow checked every single box…

🌴 Freshly made, clean skincare and body care that’s been loved across the UK for 22 years.

🥥 A category that perfectly complements everything I’ve spent the last eight years sharing—not competes with it.

🌴 A proven company that’s just now expanding into the U.S., giving us the rare opportunity to help launch it from day one.

🥥 A female founder who owns 100% of the company, with no outside investors calling the shots.

🌴 A culture built around community, generosity, unforgettable trips, and incredible experiences.

🥥 A company with a bigger purpose that gives back in meaningful ways.

And maybe the biggest surprise of all…

🌴The products. I’ll be honest…they were going to be the dealbreaker for me.

I’ve been using them for the past two weeks, and if I hadn’t absolutely loved them, none of the rest would’ve mattered.

The textures are beautiful, the packaging is stunning, the ingredients are incredibly intentional, and the glow is real. I genuinely can’t wait for you to experience them for yourself. 

Somehow, it all found me at exactly the right time. 🇬🇧

If you’re even a little curious, I’d love for you to join us Tuesday for an exclusive First Look before we officially launch next month.

Come peek behind the curtain to get an inside look at what makes this brand and the products so special, and what it could look like to be part of bringing it to the U.S. from the very beginning.

Comment “FIRST LOOK” below or shoot me a message, and I’ll send you the details. 🌴🥥 by @emilyyybeale

Well, this is awkward. 🌭😂

After nearly FIVE years in a very committed relationship with my trusty Vitamin C serum, I’m officially moving on.

And listen, I LOVED that stuff. So much that I willingly paid a small fortune to smell like hot dog (or ham) water every morning. For YEARS. That’s commitment. 😂

Enter Tropic Glow Berry. 🍓

WHERE HAS THIS BEEN ALL MY LIFE?!

Oh yeah. England. 🇬🇧

Incredibly clean ingredients, 10% encapsulated vitamin C, antioxidant rich superberries, freshly made in the UK, and clinically tested to WORK.

And instead of hot dog water? The lightest, yummiest fresh berry scent. Like a little spa in a bottle.

Oh, and did I mention it’s HALF the price?!

My bottle lasts just as long, I’m loving the results, and I haven’t touched my ex since JULY. And that’s saying something!

So if anyone wants my abandoned bottle, apparently it’s available. 😂

And if you’re ready to fall in love with your vitamin C, HIT ME UP! 🍓

Your skin (and your nose) will thank you. 😂

I’d like to apologize in advance for the person I’m becoming. 😂

But when you find skincare that actually delivers, it’s really hard to keep it to yourself.

The glow is glowing, and apparently I’ve become the girl who won’t stop talking about her skincare.

Should I share the routine responsible for this ridiculous behavior? 😂 If so, comment GLOW and I’ll spill all my secrets. Consider yourself warned. 💚

Walking into your Mahjong era? We got you. 🀄️

Join us for an afternoon of Pilates, light bites, bubbles + a little friendly competition as we team up with E•MOTION Studio 🥂

We’ll begin with 45 minutes of non-heated Pilates before settling in for an afternoon around the Mahjong table.
Come move, mingle + connect with us.

Sunday, October 11 | 2-5PM
E•MOTION Studio

Previous Mahjong experience is recommended, as this will be a social play experience rather than an instructional lesson.

Spots are limited! Reserve yours through the E•MOTION app or follow the link in E•MOTION bio @_emotionstudio 

See you on the mat and at the table 🧘‍♀️🀄️

In a world that’s always asking for our attention, we’re choosing more moments like this: phones down, tiles moving, and really good people around the table. 🀄️

Our Let’s Mahj & Stitch event was the sweetest afternoon: mahjong, bubbles, giveaways and custom stitching on from a wonderful local business (@epstitchingco you were the perfect touch to make our day extra special!) Such a fun way to make something personal and spend time together.

Thanks to everyone who came and made it so special. Already looking forward to the next one! 💕

What collab(s) would you like to see next!?

Tea in hand…so let me spill it. ☕️

There’s a reason I’m so excited to be part of bringing Tropic to the U.S.

Anyone can call their skincare “clean.” But can they back it up like THIS? 👏🏻 Because these receipts are pretty hard to ignore…

🥕 Have you heard of Yuka? It’s an independent app that scans cosmetic ingredients and rates them based on potential health risks, with 100 being the highest possible score.

Tropic’s current ratings are giving major green flags: Smoothing Cleanser (my personal fave) 100/100, Rainforest Dew 100/100, Skin Re-Leaf 100/100 and Morning Mist 98/100! 💚

⭐ More than 70,000 FIVE-STAR reviews, millions of customers and over 20 years of success in the UK.

🍃 Freshly made daily in Tropic’s own Surrey Beauty Kitchen, not manufactured to spend months or years sitting on retail shelves.

😍 Plus, every product comes with a 30-Day Happiness Guarantee, so you can try it with total confidence.

And this is what really sets Tropic apart: it isn’t just clean skincare with beautiful ingredients. The formulas are backed by real science and rigorous clinical testing through independent, ISO-certified laboratories, measuring everything from hydration and redness to elasticity, skin texture and wrinkle depth. 🧪

Clean is great. Clean, freshly made AND clinically proven to deliver visible results? That’s the sweet spot. 🙌🏻

Tropic is just arriving in the U.S., but it is anything but new. We’re still only in soft launch, with our official launch coming next month, so what if you could be part of writing its U.S. story from the very beginning?

Not to be dramatic, but THE GROUP CHAT IS GLOWINGGGG. 😂✨

Every time my phone lights up with another “Okay, wait…I LOVE this,” I do a tiny happy dance. I turned a few of my favorite messages into graphics because these reviews were way too good to stay in my camera roll.

Swipe for the skincare receipts, and tell me which one sounds like you! 💬 by @emilyyybeale

One month ago, we quietly opened the doors to Tropic in the U.S. 💛

There was no perfectly polished launch, just bathroom floor product demos, lots of Morning Mist, and sharing something I genuinely fell in love with…and had a feeling you were going to love too.

Because Tropic is so much more than clean skincare. It’s the fresh scents, the beautiful textures and the incredible ingredients sourced from the tropics. It’s the entire experience of using the products, with clinical results behind them, too.

Then the messages started coming in. The reviews. The before and afters. The “wait…my skin already feels different” texts. 🥹

Our first month in business has been more fun, and more special, than I could have imagined.
