Black Friday With Small Businesses
Written by Trinity Duong
This Friday, November 26th, 2021, the start of the critical holiday shopping season begins as stores and businesses begin to offer discounts on their products and services. Black Friday is a particularly important day for businesses and investors as they will be able to analyze how their numbers fluctuate within the entire retail industry. By contributing to smaller businesses during Black Friday, it will be incredibly beneficial for producers to understand how their market works.
Here are our small business suggestions for your holiday and/or personal gifts:
Idyl
Idyl is a celebration of modularity. This emphasizes the art of separation and recombination. There are specific flexibilities and varieties within their designs and their jewelry allows for you to change your pieces as often as you’d like. There is a diverse menu of additions that Idyl offers in order to begin your collection. Mixing and matching is a motto of theirs and they can’t wait to have you part of their community. Idyl also brands themself as being fueled by transparency.
They utilize sustainable ingredients when manufacturing and offer the finest materials handcrafted in their Antwerp ateliers. The gemstones they use are affordable diamonds. As little pieces of carbon dioxide grow in their laboratories, the presses mimic the natural conditions that create man-made diamonds that are fashioned to the best cut and polish. Idyl also uses 14k traceable gold in all pieces to ensure that wearing it, night or day keeps it durable, shiny, and alluring for years. Their gold is also sourced from conflict-free regions where no one is harmed during the mining process. There is significant wellness that Idyl provides from their sustainable and green process to their dainty beautiful pieces that are waiting to be in your hands.

Gisou
Created by Negin Mirsalehi, this bee-powered haircare comes from six-generation heritage and is sustainably sourced. You can find Gisou in Sephora, Revolve, Niche Beauty, Selfridges, Mecca, and of course Gisou.com.
Gisou’s key ingredients are sourced from Mirsalehi Bee Garden by Negin Mirsalehi and her father. Their honey is the key to their healthy, shiny, and nourished hair. It is rich in vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants. As the honey deeply nourishes and moisturizes, it repairs and restores dry damaged locks. It is a natural humectant that helps maintain the hair’s natural moisture balance for strong hair. The nectar as well is produced by bees and the nectar collected are from the flowers surrounding the Mirsalehi Bee Garden and because honey’s composition is determined by the flowers it’s important that it is authentically sourced.
Gisou is offering 10% off your next purchase if you sign up for their newsletter and a free sample of choice with every order. They also offer free shipping on orders over $50.
Make sure to check out Gisou for healthy, and strong hair.
