City Center Bishop Ranch, San Ramon

Pasadena-based skincare company LATHER, featuring products with, “no synthetic fragrance, color, parabens, sulfates, mineral oil, or animal testing”, is coming this fall to City Center Bishop Ranch in San Ramon. Check out their online shop here.

From their website:

Before long, interest turned into action, and Emilie started LATHER as a small line of pure olive oil-based soaps. The soaps quickly gained a cult following, and the company soon grew from a two-person operation into a full-fledged business offering products for the body, face, hair, and home. Emilie opened the first LATHER store in Pasadena in 1999; today, other stores in Atlanta, GA, Fairfax, VA and Scottsdale, AZ.

Blazin Jayz Smoke Shop Closes in Lafayette

October 7, 2019 8:30 am

3566 Mt. Diablo Blvd, Lafayette

Blazin Jayz Smoke Shop, which opened last spring next to Learning Express Toys in Lafayette, closed recently, probably related to Lafayette’s flavored tobacco products ban this spring. I remember being amused by the vape flavors they offered such as, “apple e-juice, grape, banana cream and Hulk Tears” but I didn’t think most of their business comes from the sale of such products.
