If you've been with us for a while, you know Solèy à Deux started with a simple idea: intentional skincare, tailored to your skin and rooted in community. A lot has happened since we last shared an update here, and we wanted you to hear it from us first.
We've Been Busy
Over the past year, our Brightening Face Oil found its way into People, Cosmopolitan, and two back-to-back issues of Tatler (pinch us, again!). We hosted an evening of skincare and conversation at Wolf & Badger on Melrose and kept showing up at markets across Los Angeles.
Every one of those moments started with you: the friends who shared our oil, the customers who came back for a second bottle, and everyone who stopped by our table to talk skin.

A little news from Britney: I've moved to New Orleans. Rachel is still holding it down in Los Angeles, so Solèy à Deux now has roots in two cities.
This move feels like coming full circle. Solèy is the Louisiana Creole word for sun, and we chose it to honor my Creole culture. I'm so excited to introduce Solèy à Deux to a city that has long inspired me, one whose warmth and sense of community reflect the values we hold closest to our hearts. The move has also brought me closer to my family, who have been some of our biggest supporters since day one.
What's Next
That sense of community is exactly what we hope to build here, so we're taking our time getting to know our new neighbors. We'll share more as it takes shape, and we'd love your help.
Know a New Orleans market, shop, studio, or wellness spot we should visit? Send us a DM on Instagram at @soleyadeux or email us at hello@soleyadeux.com. We read every note.
From both our cities to yours, thank you for helping us shine a little brighter.
Much love,
Britney & Rachel
