Scientific Name: Maranta
Common Name: Prayer Plant

The Maranta genus of plants is in the Marantacae family, which also includes Calathea, Goeppertina, Stromanthe & Ctenanthe. Many of these plants are interchangeably referred to as "Prayer Plants" due to their nyctinasty habits, which is the fancy word for leaves that fold up at night and unfold in the morning. Quite a few of the plants also have very similar foliage and growth patterns, which just adds to the fun!

Maranta can be a little more temperamental than other tropical houseplants and may be better suited for more advanced plant parents, but don't let us stop you from trying! Their foliage is very striking and unique, which is one of the reasons why these are still highly popular houseplants! 

The Prayer Plant is a classically popular houseplant that has strikingly beautiful marking on the leaves - fondly called rabbit track markings. The leaves curl up at night and unfurl in the morning (hence the adoption of the common name "Prayer Plant"). We regularly stock a lot of fun variegations of the Prayer Plant in 4" pots. If left to its own devices, this fun plant will trail with time. 

Care Notes: Low to bright indirect light, water when top two inches of soil are dry. 

***Due to the unique nature of plants, the one we carefully choose for you won't look exactly like the photos. but it will be just as beautiful!

Love These Toner Pads
Scent: Collagen
I’ve really been enjoying these Biodance Collagen Gel Toner Pads! They feel super refreshing on the skin and are an easy step to add into my routine. The pads are well-soaked without being messy, and they glide on smoothly. After using them consistently, my skin feels more hydrated and looks a bit more plump and smooth. I’ve also noticed my pores appear slightly minimized, especially around my T-zone. They’re gentle enough for daily use and don’t irritate my skin. Overall, a great option if you’re looking for a simple way to boost hydration and improve your skin’s overall look and feel!

Finally!!
Scent: Collagen
I have had huge pores with combination oily skin and dry skin since reaching my mid 30’s and makeup made them more prominent. Since adding these to my morning routine my makeup stays smooth with my pores minimized and skin looking and feeling healthier. After trying multiple products I finally found THE ONE.

Been using this for several months and love love it. My skin is moisturized and has decreased the visibility of fine lines. This is a staple in my skin care routine.

My pores look a bit tighter and my makeup sits better after using them
Scent: Collagen
I did not expect toner pads to make this much of a difference, but these honestly surprised me. The texture is more like a soft gel than a typical cotton pad, so it feels really soothing on the skin instead of scratchy. I’ve been using them both as a quick swipe toner and also leaving them on for a few minutes like a mini mask, and my skin looks noticeably more hydrated and smooth. What I love most is that they don’t irritate my skin at all, even on days when I’m more sensitive. My pores look a bit tighter and my makeup sits better after using them. The only downside is I go through them quickly because I like using multiple at once. Overall, they feel like a little luxury step that actually works.
