Glow Without Compromise: The Heart Behind Mel & Lori’s Team-Up

Mel launched Bodyluxe Inc. as a Yonkers waxing specialist who refused to compromise on skincare results. She wanted clean, effective formulas that truly nourish skin—because her clients deserve better. While searching for social media help, Mel found Lori online. Lori owns a creative social media agency, and Mel became one of her clients. Their first phone call sparked an instant connection—two intense, busy New Yorkers who instantly got each other’s vibe. What began as a marketing project evolved into a four-year journey: Lori became Mel’s trusted marketing consultant and business mentor, managing the Bodyluxe social presence from day one.

Lori didn’t just handle posts—she believed in the mission. The moment she tried the Whipped Coconut Citrus Scrub, she was hooked. She shared it with family and friends, and they all instantly loved it. She always brought it with her everywhere she traveled—exotic beaches, world marathon destinations—using it as her go-to post-recovery scrub after long runs. That one hero product proved clean ingredients could deliver a real, lasting glow.

Lori’s background is rooted in beauty and wellness. A lifelong skincare junkie and chef, she served as General Manager of Bliss Soho for 11 years, opening seven Bliss spas across the US and Bliss Singapore. As a world marathoner who has completed 10 World Marathon Majors, she lives clean: cold-press juicing, whole foods, and a disciplined lifestyle that fuels her runs and her work. Her guiding rule matches Mel’s perfectly: never put on your body what you wouldn’t eat.

In Q3 2025, they made it official. Lori stepped in as full team-up partner, bringing her strategic vision and creative energy. Since then, Bodyluxe Glow earned FDA registration, launched on TikTok Shop, Etsy, and Amazon, and co-created the Detox Lemongrass and Eucalyptus Sea Salt Scrub and Energy Rush Citrus Sea Salt Scrub. The line continues to expand with more intentional body and beauty products—all staying true to their shared ethos.

The Q1 2026 launch of the Lip Scrub + Balm is already underway, with a targeted release around Valentine’s Day—soft, kiss-ready, and fully aligned with their no-compromise standards. Both Mel and Lori are deeply excited—not just about the product itself, but about building something meaningful together.

This isn’t just business. It’s two women who’ve lived the glow they create—one through waxing rooms and client transformations, the other through kitchens, spas, and every mile of the World Marathon Majors. Lori used to craft meals that nourished from within; now she co-creates scrubs, whipped butters, and bath bombs with Mel that do the same from the outside. Every formula is tested with the same care they give their own skin. Every launch asks the same question: “Would we use this on ourselves? On our families?”

Glow without compromise isn’t a tagline. It’s the promise they made to each other and to every client who walks through the door or shops online. It’s why they wake up excited to create, grow, and one day take Bodyluxe global.

What Clients Are Saying

"When I ordered the whipped coconut citrus scrub. I had no idea that it would be truly whipped. It’s fluffy and decadent. And the Papaya Mango Body Butter is silky smooth and the fragrance is enchanting." ❤️

"Obsessed! The scent is so fresh and this body butter melts into your skin like nothing else— no greasy feel, just pure softness.

A little goes a long way. Please drop a bigger jar soon, I'm already hooked!"
