(Product) Pitches Needed

Easter, Passover, Mother's Day, National Fragrance Day...Spring! (And some others)

Dear Media Friends (and random internet strangers),

This one is for my PR peeps representing brands and products. I’m working on some product intensive stories and could use your help. Please pitch me product and experience ideas. Note that these days I concentrate most heavily on my newsletters.

This doesn’t really have anything to do with my requests, I just miss looking at actual typewriters.

Here’s what I’m working on:

• Evergreen pitch ideas for Hello Gorgeous! are beauty/skincare/body, entertainment in any form, accessories, spa, tech, gadgets and home chef/home decor. I’m also interested in in-person spa visits in NYC and Brooklyn. I’d love to start covering more trending spa/facial treatments and possibly their product counterparts. Also, I’d like to revive Ask the Derm, a feature that’s very popular. Another one that people always ask about - toppers for hair. I did a series last summer that got a whole lot of attention. And hotels in NYC and Florida (Boca/Miami especially), and finally chocolate and coffee. With prices going up, I’d love to do recurring features on both. Please also know that depending on the products and pitches these might also find their way to Yahoo as well (see below).

• Also always of interest for The Kumzits are Jewish topics, products and JVIPs

• I’m also always curious about books, tech and tools, quirky C level individuals or brands and agencies with incredible stories and items of interest for communicators for The Hot Sheet.

• Beauty, celebrities to interview, trending products, experiences, destinations and products for ITYLT (I Think You’ll Like This) on Yahoo.

Here are a few other stories I’m working on:

• Easter: For this one I’m looking not for religious items, but rather the soft colors and even table decor, nail polish, food, accessories or clothing we associate with Easter.

• Passover: For this one I’m looking for holiday gifts, foods, kosher wine, or any cool related springtime items.

• Mother’s Day: Bring it. I’d like to create a really fun gift guide that allows people to celebrate their quirky moms. Theme: Like a Mother, since not everyone is an actual mother, but for those who always take care of you and the important details in life.

• National Fragrance Day: What are the fragrance trends for spring 2026? Are we layering, updating, using less or more?

• Rain boots/umbrellas/jackets: This is primarily for women, but I’m open to hearing about items for guys as well.

• Where the boys are: This one will be tips on appropriate flirting and dating techniques and how to actually figure out if someone is interested. There’s been a lot of push back about dating apps. What should we be doing?

• Spring: Everything! Clothing, makeup, skincare, accessories. I’d love to hear about what’s new and fun.

• Comfy shoes: Sneakers, clogs, slippers, dressy.

Please email me at rcwprpitches@gmail.com with your topic or expert in the subject line to start a conversation. Please don’t include tracking links in your pitches or I’ll probably delete the entire thing!

Thanks, bunches!
