Meet Kristina Valiani

Kristina is the CEO & Founder here at The Beauty of Hope. Her wicks are always centered, she creates perfectly blended fragrances and is on a mission to see sex trafficking end in her lifetime.

WHAT IS A DAY IN THE LIFE OF KRISTINA?

My favorite way to start my day is drinking coffee with my husband Justin and mapping the days priorities. Collaborating with my team, conference calls with our retailers and my all time favorite activity is joining the production team to create our hand-crafted soy candles!

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE SCENT FROM THE BEAUTY OF HOPE?

That is a tough one because I love them all but Lemongrass & Tobacco is my go to fragrance. It’s got all of my favorite things: woodsy notes of tobacco and cedar plus fresh green citrus to top it off.

WHAT IS YOUR DREAM VACATION?

Visiting the fragrance capital of the world. Grasse, France located on the French Riviera. The best scent artists have studied and created several of the most iconic perfumes. I could spend weeks roaming the gardens and taking classes from the perfume houses that began in the late 1800s.
