We don't have to tell you how important it is to give back, and we love when our brands take the time to give a helping hand to our communities. Featured in our January #GLOSSYgoals box, Daily Concepts takes body care to the next level.

Daily Concepts has been partnered with Lava Mae since their inception in 2012. It has been a charity and a cause that deeply touched Daily Concepts Founder, Emilio Smeke; "It has been a true honor to sponsor and support their mission and growth over the years." The very same exfoliating body scrubber featured in this month's GLOSSYBOX is the same product they offer for the use of the homeless and those in need. They utilize the scrubbers in these traveling shower/bathrooms created by Lava Mae pictured below.

About Lava Mae: Lava Mae’s Motto: Delivering Dignity, One Shower At A Time.

It started with one woman, homeless in San Francisco, crying that she would never be clean.

Lava Mae's Founder, Doniece Sandoval, heard her cries. Those words, a desire to help those experiencing homelessness, and a crazy obsession with the mobile food truck movement set in motion what eventually became Lava Mae. Started by private citizens who believe that access to showers and toilets shouldn’t be a luxury, Lava Mae seeks to serve those who lack access to what should be basic human rights – showers and sanitation.

Lava Mae launched its mobile hygiene service in June of 2014 and has since provided 14,000+ showers to 2,400 people moving through homelessness, inspired replication of their hygiene services, and dramatically raised awareness about the lack of access to showers and basic hygiene across the U.S. and around the globe.
