GSN FOUNDATION + DAZZLE DRY INTRODUCE ‘PROMISE TO THE PLANET’ CAMPAIGN FOR EARTH DAY 2021 - Spa Industry Association
Press Release

February 23, 2021 (Chandler, AZ)–The GSN Foundation and Dazzle Dry have proudly teamed up this Earth Day 2021 to introduce the ‘Promise To The Planet’ social media campaign. Calling on members of the beauty and wellness industries together with consumers, the campaign encourages supporters to join forces in solidarity by painting their nails green and blue, snapping and sharing their one promise and painted nails across social media with the hashtag, #promisetotheplanet, in response to the urgent need to help combat climate change.

“We’re honored to partner with GSN Foundation on this social media campaign for Earth Day,” says Dr. Vivian Valenty, Founder of Dazzle Dry. “I know we share a collective core mission for wanting to create sustainable and impactful practices for both the well-being of the industry and consumers that will allow us to continue to have fun and enjoy our beautiful planet together.”

To continue its ongoing social responsibility efforts and partnership with WeForest, in honor of Earth Day, for every order made on Thursday, April 22 that includes a lacquer from the Earth Day Collection released that day, as well as select blues and greens, Dazzle Dry will plant two trees with WeForest. To date, Dazzle Dry has planted about 150,000 trees with WeForest in the Khasi Hills of India and most recently, in Luanshya, Zambia.

Suggestions for a promise to the planet consumers and industry leaders can make and share in the social campaign include, but are not limited to:

  • composting
  • eating less meat
  • using reusable bags
  • shortening showers
  • recycling / precycling
  • shopping vintage, secondhand
  • eliminating plastic water bottles
  • using reusable PPE as much as possible
  • walking, biking, carpooling or taking transit instead of driving alone
  • choosing clean beauty brands / green ingredients and less packaging
  • buying in bulk and refilling containers to cut down on packaging waste
  • planting trees in your yard or donating towards tree planting via the GSN Tree Planting Initiative

“GSN is extremely grateful for the opportunity to partner with Dr. Valenty and Dazzle Dry on this Earth Day Promise to the Planet Campaign, says Thor Holm, GSN Planet Board President. I think we can all agree that the health of the planet is not a political matter, but a threat to our future and the future of the next generation. We can make a difference and we can do it together!”
