Heyday opens today, which happens to be 713 Day, on West Gray near Shepherd. It promises to "take the guesswork out of skincare," with customizable 50-minute facials and shopping guidance from estheticians.
Upon entering the minimalist yet approachable store, clients are greeted with chilled lemon water and a beautiful display of colorful products from high-end brands like Supergoop!, Tata Harper, Osea, Ursa Major and others. Those who have booked a facial treatment are ushered back to an open-concept area where curtains section off eight different treatment rooms. Licensed estheticians perform a skin analysis and proceed to incorporate various steps like extractions, exfoliation, masking and massage; customers can also opt for enhancements like microdermabrasion, gua sha, LED light therapy, or hydrofacial.
In line with the company's ethos of making skincare accessible and habitual, there's no undressing or warm foot bath here. Instead, clients climb into a deluxe recliner, not unlike one seen in a dentist's office, that's covered loosely in boho-chic tasseled fabric. This sets the tone for a facial that is relaxing not due to soothing spa music, but rather because of the simple, not-overwhelming approach to skincare. Esthies here understand that not everyone can do a multi-step skincare routine twice a day, and offer practical product recommendations accordingly.
In that same vein, Heyday's membership program is "designed to support your skin's monthly renewal cycle," and each month's fee ($114) includes a personalized facial, 50 percent off any enhancements, and a range of discounts on products. Additional facials can be tacked on for $85 each. Not ready to commit? Non-members can easily book a consultation and facial for $135. Plus! Right now, new clients can get their first treatment for just $70.

Lick Honest Ice Creams is scooping into Houston, a new market for the Austin-based retailer, with not just one but two shops. The first location has bowed in Bellaire, and its grand opening is Sunday, July 16 — which is also National Ice Cream Day. To celebrate the occasion, free scoops will be provided to guests from 3-5pm!
Peach margarita ice cream at Lick
Founded in Austin in 2011 by partners Chad Palmatier and Anthony Sobotik, Lick crafts ice cream from locally sourced and sustainably grown and harvest ingredients using grass-fed cows from a local dairy. The ice creams are free from high fructose corn syrup, palm oil, preservatives, or artificial flavorings or colors. Daily Texas-inspired flavors include coffee and cream; bright purple roasted beets and fresh mint; dark chocolate, olive oil and sea salt; goat cheese thyme and honey; watermelon. Hill Country honey and vanilla bean, and Texas sheet cake.
Seasonal specials will put a smile on any Texan’s face – dig into peach margarita; lemonade pound cake; cilantro lime, peach leaf graham crunch; spicy coconut peanut and strawberry swirl (vegan); and banana pudding (vegan). To jazz up your scoop, Lick offers rich toppings such as chocolate, caramel, toasted Texas pecans, whipped cream, chocolate cookie crumble, and rainbow sprinkles. Prefer a neat ice cream sandwich? Expect flavors including caramel salt lick, vegan vanilla, and dark chocolate, olive oil and sea salt.
Besides free scoops, at the grand opening, customers who donate $20 to Out Youth will receive a free scoop card, and all of Lick’s shops will donate 10 percent of Sunday’s sales to the organization. Lick’s second Houston location will open in August in Autry Park mixed use development.
