Katie Chang was never one to shirk any challenge. I have known her for a L O N G time. She’s a smart woman who knows her beauty products and if I ever had questions about products or techniques for application, I could always turn to Katie for the answers.
It wasn’t a surprise to hear that she started her own business and that she’s gotten quite successful with Miomia and ShopMiomia.com, her Brooklyn-based shop for all things bath, body and cosmetic– for both sexes. Miomia is definitely guy-friendly . Men are comfortable shopping at Miomia for their personal grooming items and women love the store for its eclectic blend of brands that can’t be found locally. The store has grown precisely because it’s concise in it’s assortment of products and just like the online store that’s recently launched (shopmiomia.com ) and it has a friendly presentation that suits both men and women (meaning it’s not all girly).
What I love about Miomia and ShopMiomia.com is the serious thought that Chang put into this store. According to Katie:
“The product lines are incredibly unique, effective, and cruelty-free beauty and grooming product lines. Unlike other apothecaries where men are treated as an afterthought, miomia opened with both men and women equally in mind, launching some of the most sought-after beauty and grooming brands from all over the world. Miomia also offers unusual giftables such as David Shrigley greetings, Jimmy Belasco soy candles, and Malie Kauai hand soaps.”
When I got the email about the Hakannsson line launching eye-shadows, my jaw dropped, my eyes popped and I was typing 60 mph to get to the site to see photos.
Hakannsson is a great more organic, natural ingredient oriented line that really is so great. The skincare line is to die for and the cosmetics are something new and the shadows and smokin’ haute in terms of color and texture.
According to Katie,
The Hakansson shadows retail for $19 each and there are other Hakannsson products too on the site that you can play with to create the most personalized match for your skintone.
You definitely want to check out these gorgeous shadows. Hakannson’s line of skincare and cosmetics are of the highest quality and provide a slew of natural ingredients that make it good for your skin as well as making you look fab too.
If you are in the NYC area, you need to head to Brooklyn to check out this great store.

I stumbled uopn this website, found this product called IHT 9 Intensive Hair Regrowth Shampoo. I researched over Internet about this shampoo and all its natural ingredients (its a 100% herbal shampoo) and then I decided to give a try. I have been using this shampoo for more than 2 months and I must tell you all that it has not only stopped hair loss but have actually stimulated very tiny hair growth at my balding forehead. I am so happy that I came across this wonderful product!
