Skincare, Soul & Stories: A Masterclass Rooted in Warmth, Science & Storytelling
What does it truly take to craft a beauty experience that’s equal parts expert-led and emotionally resonant? One that feels as editorial as it is educational—and as much about the soul as it is about the skin?
Last week in Mumbai, Lavenderoom set out to answer that question in partnership with Clarins India and Global SS Beauty Brands. The result was “Skincare for Every Age”—a masterclass led by Clarins international trainer Teresa Tong, designed to feel personal, inclusive, and texturally rich.
Far from a conventional product showcase, this wasn’t just a session about skincare—it was a space to connect, reflect, and redefine what beauty can mean across ages, textures, and touchpoints.
Intentional Beauty, Thoughtfully Designed
Every detail at the event had a purpose—and a point of view.
🪷 A single flower on every chair reminded guests that beauty begins with softness.
💬 Affirmation cards greeted attendees, helping them arrive not just physically, but mentally.
🧴 A thoughtfully designed curriculum gently dismantled myths around age, ingredients, and the so-called “right” skincare routines.
And in a truly personalized touch, Clarins offered on-the-spot skin analyses to each guest—helping them better understand their unique skin needs, followed by tailored product recommendations based on science, not guesswork. It was a moment that made skincare feel not only luxurious, but truly individual.
From the moment guests walked in, it was clear: this wasn’t your average beauty event. It was more like a relaxed, joy-filled evening—where questions flowed freely, conversations ran deep, and skincare was celebrated not just as a product, but as a story.
A Gathering of Curious & Beautiful Minds
The true highlight? The inspiring group of founders, editors, creators, and beauty & wellness enthusiasts who showed up—with their full selves. Each person brought a unique light, curiosity, and openness that made the evening not just special, but unforgettable.
“Yes, there were the usual backstage scrambles (aren’t there always?),” shares Aparrna Gupta, founder of Lavenderoom and curator of the event, “but what stayed with me was the sense of presence. When people show up real—curious, vulnerable, grounded—brand storytelling doesn’t just land. It lingers.”
Lavenderoom’s Signature Touch
“At Lavenderoom, we’ve always believed in creating more than just events. We create intentional spaces—where conversations flow freely, where there’s no pressure to network, but every opportunity to connect,” Aparrna explains.
Her role, as she sees it, isn’t just to host—but to translate:
From brand to consumer.
From information to insight.
From messaging to meaning.
A Toast to What’s Next
This collaboration with Clarins India wasn’t just about showcasing products—it was about sharing history, heritage, and heartfelt connection. Teresa Tong brought not just expertise, but a warm energy that turned technical insights into meaningful takeaways.
As the evening wrapped, what lingered was not just the glow of great skincare—but the glow of shared experience.
Here’s to more beauty that feels like a conversation—not a campaign.
And to building a future where skincare is not only seen—but felt.
