In honor of World Sleep Day, we're sharing how Earth Therapeutics turned a cozy movie night into the ultimate sleep celebration and how you can recreate this relaxing experience at home with friends, pajamas, and our perfectly pampering products.
Recently, Earth Therapeutics transformed the Alamo Drafthouse in Lower Manhattan into the ultimate pajama party for a special screening of the RomCom classic, Bridget Jones Diary. Fifty media friends and influencers traded their stilettos for slippers and gathered for a night of pampering, laughs, and girlhood entertainment.
Our Tarts & Vicars Pajama Party
Inspired by one of the most iconic scenes in Bridget Jones Diary, our "Tarts & Vicars" themed pre-party had guests selecting sinning or saintly headbands (from bunny ears to angel halos) and sharing their own hilarious dating disaster stories. Let's just say ‘Bridge’ would have felt considerably better about her romantic mishaps after hearing some of these tales!
Each guest discovered an Earth Therapeutics canvas Mini Tote Bag at their seat filled with pampering essentials:
Thermal Moisturizing Hand Masks
Green Tea Hydrogel Under-Eye Patches
Rejuvenating Collagen Facial Sheet Masks
The theater hummed with conversation as everyone unpacked their goodies, tried on products, and enjoyed delicious apps and cocktails. Our pre-film movie trivia had everyone competing for exclusive Earth Therapeutics gift baskets. We learned that whether you've seen Bridget Jones once or can recite it by heart, there's always something new to discover about our favorite chaotic heroine.
Make Your Own Pajama Party & Movie Night
Wanna create your own cozy movie night with friends without the hassle of renting out a whole theater? We put together a few tips to bring that same magical experience into your own comfy home.
The best part, this concept can be tailored for ANY AGE. Whether you're a momma hosting a kiddo's pajama party, or an adult planning a fiscally responsible yet hilariously memorable themed girls' night in, these ideas work across generations.
Set the Scene
+ Make it special: Draft creative invitations asking friends to arrive in their comfiest pajamas. Bonus points if they're slightly embarrassing
+ Comfort is key: Pile on the pillows, soft blankets, and floor cushions to create a casual, relaxed atmosphere. If someone shows up in jeans, kindly but firmly ask them to leave (JK…kinda)
+ Light it right: Use candles or string lights for a warm, ambient glow. The goal is "cozy dreamland," not "interrogation room."
Movie-Inspired Chaos
+ Take inspiration from your chosen film for easy thematic elements:
> For Bridget Jones: set up a simple "Tarts & Vicars" photo area with easy props like angel wings, bunny ears, or funny hats
> For other films: create character-inspired name tags, movie quote cards, or themed decorations
+ Come up with a simple trivia game with questions about the movie or actors.
+ Award prizes for both impressively correct and hilariously wrong answers.
+ Get friends to share stories related to the film's theme. Nothing bonds a group faster than collective embarrassment.
A Pretty Perfect Pampering Station
Create a self-care corner where friends can sample and enjoy products:
+ Lay out Earth Therapeutics products on a tray. Include small hand mirrors, headbands, and hair ties
+ Add an iced carafe of “spa water” infused with cucumber or lemon
+ Provide Aloe Socks for guests who forget theirs or "accidentally" wore their outside shoes inside (gasp!)
Movie Night Menu
Keep it simple with shareable favorites:
+ Nibbly bits: veggie platters, cheese & charcuterie boards, and bite-sized appetizers. Nothing that requires explaining how to eat it.
+ Sweet treats: a popcorn bar with different toppings or a dessert grazing board. Note: calories consumed during movie nights don't count and that’s a science-fact (unverified)
+ Cozy drinks: hot chocolate, tea, or simple signature cocktails. Name them after movie characters for extra fun.
+ Movie-night classics: with a twist. Think truffle butter popcorn, gourmet nachos, or custom personal pizzas with a toppings bar
Making Memories
+ Document the transformation from "just arrived" to "fully pampered" with before and after videos and photos. Warning: sheet mask selfies may cause future embarrassment but are absolutely worth it.
+ Create a collaborative playlist where everyone adds their secret guilty pleasure songs. Judge each other accordingly.
+ Keep the night alive with a group chat that starts with sharing photos and inevitably turns into planning your next gathering before this one even ends.
+ Award superlatives like "Most Likely to Fall Asleep First" or "Best Sheet Mask Face" to make everyone feel like winners (or lovable losers).
