Welcome Summer 2023! We are kicking off the month of June with our Customer Appreciation Event. June is a special month for us as we are nearing our 17th anniversary and 3rd annual BSG Day. We are honoured to share our birthday month in celebration with Pride Month and our BSG Community, as we shed light on the importance of mental health.
 
Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feel, and act. It also helps determine how we handle stress, relate to others, and make healthy choices [source: CDC].

The first BSG Day was established in the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. In this time of social distancing, we wanted to honour our values of connection, community and wellness in celebration of our birthday. We wanted to make creativity and self-care accessible to all in a time of isolation.

Thus, BSG Day was born. Every year we celebrate BSG Day on June 19th with a one-day sale to support self-care, inclusion, and a positive mindset. BSG Day provided the opportunity for people at-home to experience and educate themselves in nails. Meanwhile the nail professionals could continue practicing their craft during their time off. As we move through a post-COVID world, we are getting back to our roots of supporting and connecting with being professional first.

CUSTOMER APPRECIATION EVENT

At Bio Seaweed Gel, we want you to feel as good as your nails look.
In honour of Pride Month, we want to talk about what inclusivity means for us and what we stand for.
 
BSG is united in celebrating values of individuality, kindness and self-care for all.
We find empowerment in continuously learning about our community to fuel BSG products that are designed for everyone.

We support the 2SLGBTQI+ community with the belief that no matter who you love or how you identify, BSG will provide the tools to help you grow your business, explore your creativity and express your individual style. We warmly welcome all those who share the same values as we do.

I’m recommending Dr Osato to everyone who has herpes simplex virus to get the cure from him. I was diagnosed with genital herpes in 2022 and i have been searching and asking questions to see if i could get something to cure the disease because i did not believe what the doctors say that no cure is found yet. I came across a comment on Youtube and the person testified how she was cured from herpes and hpv after using Dr Osato herbal medicine. I quickly contacted Dr Osato and explained my problem to him and he prepared the herbs and sent it to me through UPS and gave me instructions on how to use it and told me to go for checkup after usage which i did after two weeks of taking the herbal medicine and my result was NEGATIVE. I waited another month and retested, the result was still NEGATIVE and my doctor told me that I am completely free from herpes. Am so happy and grateful to Dr Osato for what he has done for me and i will continue to share this for people out there to know that there is a cure for herpes. You can contact Dr Osato on email and WhatsApp to get the cure from him. Email: osatoherbalcure@gmail.com or WhatsApp him on +2347051705853
