An Employee Wellness Event in Lake County for Science and Tech Teams

An employee wellness event in Lake County should satisfy people who like to know how things work. Our Bath & Body Bar does that, because every scent comes from natural perfumery materials and every product has full ingredient disclosures. Then each guest makes a soothing set in about twenty minutes.

Grainger and Packaging Corporation of America are based in Lake Forest, while CDW is in Vernon Hills and Zebra Technologies is in Lincolnshire. Also, AbbVie's executive offices sit in North Chicago, and Abbott calls Abbott Park home.

Why an employee wellness event works in Lake County

Our founder, Cheryl Gleason, is a cosmetic and skincare formulator and a trained perfumer. So the fragrances on the bar come from the same natural materials she uses in perfume. Guests pair one with foaming bath salts or Himalayan salts, a sugar scrub or body oil, and botanicals such as dried citrus. Finally, they choose a handmade bath bomb, and we jar and label the set right there.

There's no contest and no winner, so everyone is comfortable joining. Plus, the bar needs no water and runs without power at most venues, which helps on secure campuses. That's why a Lake County employee wellness event with our bar is simple for facilities teams to approve. Our most requested Lake County wellness bookings are ERG wellness events for women's networks, a benefits fair activity on large campuses, wellness day activities for whole departments, and wellness retreat ideas in a woodland setting.

Who books an employee wellness event in Lake County

ERGs and women's networks

An ERG, or employee resource group, is a group such as a company's women's network. When one plans a wellness gathering, our bar gives members a calm reason to talk, and the take-home set is a thoughtful thank-you.

Life sciences campuses

Scientists tend to ask good questions about ingredients. Our hosts welcome them, and we provide full disclosures for every product. In addition, guests can take part without applying anything to their skin.

Technology and distribution headquarters

HR teams at large headquarters often host benefits fairs and wellness weeks. Because the bar moves quickly, it keeps lines short even when a whole floor comes down at once.

What is on the Bath & Body Bar

Bath saltsFoaming bath salts and fine Himalayan salts, mixed to each guest's taste.
Scrubs and oilsSugar scrubs and body oils for a soothing ritual at home.
BotanicalsRose petals, dried citrus, and other botanicals to finish each jar.
Scent and a bath bombEach guest chooses a premium fragrance, then picks a handmade bath bomb to round out the set.

The bar is a styled apothecary spread. Apothecary is the old word for a pharmacy, and our bar has that look: glass jars, botanicals, and soft linens. Each guest spends about twenty calm minutes with a host, and then everything is jarred and labeled at the station. Because it runs without power at most venues and needs no water, it fits a lobby, a cafeteria, a break room, or a benefits fair. We also staff it to cover your shifts.

Guests can make a product to take home without applying anything to their skin. Full ingredient and allergen details are on our allergens and safety page. For a small leadership group, the corporate skincare bar in Lake County is a seated alternative. For a bigger celebration, however, pair the bar with the corporate perfume bar so two stations spread people out.

Lake County spaces for a wellness event

Wellness events here often stay on campus. However, Lake County also has distinctive spaces for a wellness retreat or a larger fair.

Brushwood Center at Ryerson Woods

This Riverwoods setting is surrounded by woods, so it suits a quiet retreat for a team or ERG.

Greenbelt Cultural Center

In North Chicago, with about 18,500 square feet. That's plenty of room for a wellness fair with several stations.

Elawa Farm and Gorton Center

Two Lake Forest venues for smaller gatherings, especially a department wellness afternoon.

Lincolnshire Marriott Resort

About 46,000 square feet of event space, so a wellness station fits alongside a large conference or recognition event.

  • Bring the ingredient listIf your team likes details, share our allergens and safety page in the invitation. As a result, guests arrive knowing what's on the bar.
  • Pair two stations for a bigger crowdFor a large celebration, pair the Bath & Body Bar with our corporate perfume bar or corporate candy bar. Two stations spread people out, so the room stays relaxed.
  • Distance and arrivalLake Forest is about 59 miles from our Mokena studio, and Vernon Hills is about 52. We arrive an hour before the first guest, and we send a COI, or certificate of insurance, naming your company or venue.
