00:00 >> Last night at the Oscars, the real winners were the nominees because they got to take
00:05 home a everyone is a winner gift bag and I got to talk with Lash Ferry about what's in
00:10 the bag.
00:13 >> The Oscars is a very big event, but what is even bigger and that is the gift bags.
00:18 And with me is the man, the myth, the legend himself of, I say, gifting, and that is Lash,
00:24 who has this year's everybody is a winner nominee gift bag.
00:28 And we have some of the stuff here, but Lash, before we start, I gotta ask you, how much
00:34 time do you spend finding this stuff?
00:37 >> We work on this all year and then in truth, we'll start on Monday after the Oscars on
00:42 next year's cuz a few brands missed the deadline, they couldn't get it together, inventory issues.
00:46 So we will start working early.
00:48 >> This is so cool.
00:49 And what's really great is the products you get are from small companies to big companies
00:54 to highlight them with the celebrities, but also with the public too, which is so important.
00:58 So let's get started cuz there's so much to talk about.
01:00 And I wanna talk about, of course, our skincare.
01:03 That is something that you're big on.
01:04 I know you go looking for the best.
01:08 >> It's my favorite part of any gift bag, to be honest, the beauty aisle.
01:11 And we have about a dozen of my favorite products, but none more favorited by me than Miage Skincare.
01:18 This is an ultra luxury line.
01:20 It's based on decades of research and innovation.
01:22 They're getting a five-piece $515 collection from Miage.
01:26 So I'm delighted to share that.
01:28 We've got some awesome men's specific skincare this year from Adonis Arcana.
01:32 The packaging is sleek and masculine.
01:34 We've got Insta-Tutum, we've got Goodall, so many amazing beauty products.
01:38 >> Yeah, and then you have one that's kind of fun here, and that is the, I have to hold
01:41 up, it's the Hotsy Totsy bag.
01:43 >> Hotsy Totsy is amazing.
01:46 That's called Definitely Divine.
01:48 It's their glow kit.
01:49 And that's a great success story.
01:51 She is a single mom.
01:52 She happens to be deaf.
01:54 And she's participated a few years.
01:55 Last year, one press hit alone, she sold out of her entire inventory, had to close her
02:00 brick and mortar store just to fill orders.
02:01 >> Oh, my goodness.
02:02 All right, as we move down, we know a lot of people are looking to enhance their sleep,
02:07 especially before the Oscars and after.
02:10 And I love this highlight, the sleep highlight.
02:13 What is that?
02:14 >> This is called Heelight, and it's a red light technology.
02:18 It's NASA-inspired.
02:19 And you just set this on your nightstand as you're falling asleep.
02:22 It stays on for about 30 minutes.
02:24 And it helps you fall asleep more quickly and sleep more soundly.
02:28 We also are hooking them up with Wesper.
02:30 This is incredible.
02:31 If anybody has trouble sleeping, this is clinically based.
02:34 They get a sleep consultation with an actual neuroscientist to help them.
02:38 So if they lose sleep over losing that Oscar, Wesper can help them out.
02:42 >> All right, let's go down to the food.
02:45 And I'm not talking about for people yet.
02:47 I'm talking about for our pets.
02:48 This is really neat to put in the bag this year.
02:51 >> I love what PETA has done.
02:53 PETA has teamed up with V-Dog, which is a vegan plant-powered dog food company.
02:57 And V-Dog has actually pledged 10,000 meals to PETA's Global Compassion Fund, which will
03:03 go to feed dogs in need right here in the United States.
03:05 >> I like it.
03:06 And then we can't forget those who have cats.
03:09 >> Of course, we're all about inclusivity, right, these days.
03:12 And so we have the dogs, and then we also have from Smack Pet Food, a Canadian company,
03:17 they're doing their cat food line.
03:18 And I love the bag.
03:19 It says, "My cat's on Smack."
03:21 And it's such great pet food.
03:22 >> I like it.
03:23 Okay.
03:24 I hope we don't hear this during the ceremony, but the Blendquik is something that you want
03:29 to make sure you throw in there, because people are going to want to need to have that energy
03:32 drink.
03:34 >> You are Mr. Health.
03:35 I see you're always posting great ideas and great tips.
03:38 And Blendquik is for people on the go.
03:41 It's a portable personal blender.
03:42 We're even giving them from IsoPure, the collagen peptides.
03:45 They can blend up a really healthy, delicious, collagen-filled smoothie.
03:49 We also have this company, which I love.
03:51 It's called The 60 Power.
03:52 These are sugar-free, chewable antioxidants that taste so good and give you that boost
03:57 of antioxidants.
03:58 >> All right.
03:59 Man, this is great.
04:00 All right.
04:01 I've got so much to get through, but now we've got to get down to, of course, the people
04:02 food, because a lot of them don't eat, because they've got to fit into their outfits.
04:06 So they're always looking for something to nibble on during the show.
04:09 And you've got a variety from popcorn with whiskey in it to chocolates and yummy different
04:15 little things here.
04:17 >> All sorts of treats, and some of them can fit right into their handbag and take to the
04:20 Oscars with them.
04:21 But yeah, I really love Eatable.
04:23 I love the way it's packaged.
04:24 I love that these are gourmet popcorn flavors that are inspired by happy hour.
04:29 I love the champagne-white-chocolate combo.
04:31 And you can actually find Eatable in the Academy gift shop.
04:35 So it's got, like, a nice tie-in with the Oscars.
04:37 >> And then we can't forget about drinks.
04:39 And we'll start with, of course, who's back again, and that is the tequila that they make
04:44 sure they get through.
04:45 >> This is Tequila Antigua Cruz.
04:47 This is their Cristalino.
04:49 This is award-winning tequila.
04:50 They were introduced to them through the Latin Grammys.
04:53 And then if you're more of a gin person, we've got Gin Bothy.
04:57 This is small-batch, award-winning Scottish gin.
05:00 I just love the bottles.
05:01 I'm, like, not really a drinker, but I love liquor bottles.
05:04 >> I know.
05:05 I actually -- Vali, my producer, was like, "Where's the gin?"
05:11 And quickly, she also introduced me to, of course, this gut-helping drink here that you
05:16 guys put in the bag, too.
05:19 >> What do you have?
05:20 >> This is the -- It's the poppy.
05:23 The poppy, she was telling me.
05:24 >> Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.
05:26 That also is the least expensive item in the gift bag.
05:28 So this is poppy soda.
05:30 And what's great is they've reimagined and redefined soda, so it doesn't have to be unhealthy.
05:35 This is filled with prebiotics.
05:36 And then we have a sparkling beverage called Eleve, which is filled with adaptogens, which
05:40 help you de-stress and sleep more soundly.
05:42 >> Yeah, I tell you, Lash, we could spend all day long going through this gift bag,
05:46 'cause there's so much in there for us.
05:48 You have books in there.
05:50 They're amazing.
05:51 You have the Hey Dude shoes, all kinds of stuff, bags, everything for them.
05:54 And this is something that -- >> Look at this bag.
05:56 You're Mr. Travel.
05:57 You're always going.
05:58 This is from Overnight Travel Bags, these gorgeous red duffel bags.
06:01 This is a black-owned brand.
06:02 I found him on Instagram, and I was like, "Dude, you got to send me these bags.
06:05 They're gorgeous."
06:06 >> Oh, my gosh.
06:07 I got to get one of those, too.
06:08 Lash, I'll tell you, this is not the only award you do.
06:10 You do pretty much all the major ones.
06:12 So how can people find out more about the gift bags, the items that you have in here,
06:16 everything you got going on?
06:18 >> Yeah, we just finished our 25th Grammys, believe it or not, last month.
06:22 But they can just go to my website, which is distinctiveassets.com, or over on Instagram
06:27 at swagassets.
06:28 >> So there it is.
06:29 Lash, I'll tell you, thank you for joining us again.
06:31 A wonderful year of the bag, which is amazing.
06:34 It's Everybody Wins, a nomination gift bag.
06:37 And I'll tell you, we're winners just right here, right now.
06:43 >> You're a delight.
06:44 Pleasure chatting with you.
06:45 >> Thank you.
