vol. 02: everything is paperwork
Six designs, thirteen fits, and the reason all of it looks like it came off a clipboard.
Every treatment room runs on paper. Intake forms, consent forms, the aftercare sheet nobody reads, chart notes written in a shorthand only you can decode. Most of the job happens on skin. The rest happens on a clipboard.
Vol. 02 is built from the clipboard half.
Why it looks like a form
Every piece is set the way clinical paperwork is set: one heavy headline, one small line of fine print underneath. The fine print is the part we care about. "Staff only · by appointment." "Directions for use · repeat nightly." It is the voice of every laminated sign taped to every treatment room door, finally on something you would wear on purpose.
One typeface across the whole drop. No illustrations, no gradients, no little sparkles next to the word glow. If it would not pass as an official form, it did not make it onto a shirt.
The pieces
Barrier Season. For the months when every client walks in tight, flaky and asking what happened. You already know what happened. Hoodie, cropped hoodie, and a dad hat for the days you cannot deal with your own hair either.
Skin Department. Staff only. By appointment. For the front desk, the back room and the walk to the car after a ten-hour day. Bone hoodie and a black cropped hoodie.
Moisturize. Mind Your Business. The only two pieces of advice anyone needs, in the order they should be followed. Crewneck and women's tee.
Dead Skin, Good Skin. Specimen No. 001. Handle with care. Tee and women's tee.
Stop Touching Your Face. A reminder from your esthetician, printed so we can stop saying it out loud. It will not work. Long sleeve and women's tee.
Client Notes. I'm not judging. I'm taking notes. Both are true. Tee and women's tee.
Fit and fabric
Women's tees are relaxed fit. Room to lean over a treatment bed for an hour without adjusting anything. Blacks are solid black, not the washed charcoal that happens to every other black shirt you own by week three. Prints are clean and flat, no fake cracking, no fake vintage. If it ends up looking worn in, that should be because you wore it.
Everything is made to order. Your piece gets made after you order it, which means nothing is sitting in a warehouse waiting to be discounted.
Who it's for
Estheticians first. Then anyone whose hands spend the day on other people's faces. If you have ever written "pt. picks" in a chart and felt nothing, this drop is for you.
