🎉 We are excited to share our feature in Fast Company titled "How Sol de Janeiro Became Sephora’s Top-Selling Brand by Redefining Fragrance."    This spotlight showcases the innovative strategy behind our success: reframing fragrance from a symbol of desirability to a form of self-care - a shift that deeply resonates with today’s consumers, particularly Gen Z.    Anne Talley, our General Manager of Americas, captured this vision by sharing, “Our fragrances create an environment meant to make you feel uplifted and comforted.”    Our playful, accessible scents—designed for layering and enhancing mood—align with the growing trend of using fragrance for personal well-being. This feature highlights how we’ve redefined body care as a luxury experience, solidifying Sol de Janeiro as Sephora’s top-selling brand.    A huge thank you to the Fast Company team! 🙌    📖 Check out the full feature here: https://lnkd.in/dimTaRUP

✨ The holidays at Sol de Janeiro are unlike anything else ✨ they’re warm, vibrant, and unapologetically extravagant. We're so grateful to have hosted a magical evening with some of our closest friends in NYC this week, creating an unforgettable evening to "Celebrate Out Loud." The night began at our Amigo Oculto Wall, where guests selected an envelope to reveal their match for the evening. This marked the start of a thoughtful and personalized gifting journey, leading to the Gifting Station, where each product was beautifully wrapped and tailored to its recipient. At the heart of the evening was our Manifestation Tree, unlike any typical holiday tree. After indulging in a Brazilian holiday feast, guests were invited to write their manifestations down for the year ahead. Wishes were then hung on the tree, which filled the room with hope, optimism, and Brazilian holiday magic. From the vibrant atmosphere to our thoughtfully curated Holiday Sets, every detail of the evening celebrated out loud. 💛 🎁 Thank you to everyone who joined us for a night of connection and celebration.

Thank you, WWD, for recognizing Sol de Janeiro as one of the top five beauty brands driving social media engagement success across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube! We’re proud to be part of this movement, creating buzzworthy moments that resonate with our community — from our beloved body care to the irresistible scents.
