The best shopping recommendations for religious Israelis.

Loni Itzhaki, married and mother of three teenagers, lives in Tel Aviv.

She comes from the world of design and art, and there is nothing she loves more than creating and making beautiful and joyful things.

In 2018, she founded Love in a BOX, an Israeli brand, thinking about the small, happy moments in our lives.

Every part of the design process, from conception to execution, is accompanied by love and attention to detail, specific colors, and the use of quality textiles and products.

All items are handmade in her studio in Tel Aviv.

She is a member of the "Hatzait" networking club, run by journalist and entrepreneur Miri Ben-David. Thanks to them, Itzhaki began working with the religious sector, which led to the idea of the Havdalah kit – a personalized gift that has become a best-seller on Loni's website.

Her studio also hosts creative workshops where the participants work and create together with her.

Shachar Meshulam is a 29-year-old woman who owns a ceramics studio in Netzer Hazani.

It all started when Shachar went on maternity leave and discovered her great love for ceramics. Her teacher saw her passion and potential and pushed her to open her own studio.

After the war began, the studio opened out the community's need for a place for for therapy, relaxation, connection, and fun!

Today, the studio hosts workshops for up to 25 participants - for families, team building, bachelorette parties, and any other reason.

There is also the option for Shachar to come to you, with no participant limit.

I went to such a workshop with Shachar with my sisters and new sister-in-law and had a great time. In an hour and a half, we each made a few pieces, and we loved the studio, the atmosphere, and Shachar, of course. Afterward, on Shachar's recommendation, we also went to eat at a magical place called Ruchama Coffee Bar, which was a perfect end to a perfect evening.

The largest low-cost beauty and cosmetics chain in Israel, Beautycare, is expanding its collections of lipsticks and glosses, with each series adding a variety of fashionable shades.

The expansion of the lipstick series was chosen in celebration of International Lipstick Day, which is celebrated every year on July 29.

The FIXX series is a series of highly durable matte liquid lipsticks that originally had 20 shades at its launch. The formula of the lipsticks is thin but opaque.

The FIXX collection has added ten fashionable shades, also in liquid texture and matte finish, including: coffee brown (25), nude mauve (28), and a summery coral red, which is fundamentally different from the classic red found in the collection.

Price: NIS 7.90.

The classic moisturizing lipsticks series from Beautycare is the company's first and traditional series, rich in many shades. Over the years, the product itself has even undergone a makeover, and their moisturizing formula has been improved. These lipsticks are rich in pigment, have a soft and pleasant texture, and provide long-lasting moisture.

New shades are now being introduced, developed due to the demand for dark moisturizing lipsticks: dark eggplant purple and dark brown, alongside more everyday shades like nudes and mauves. Price: NIS 4.50.

Also, the transparent gloss series is now introducing gloss number 13, inspired by a throwback trend from the 90s: Ultra-violet glitter on the lips.

Similarly, a transparent gloss full of crushed glitter will flatter any lip look.

Available for purchase online and in stores.
