where self-care

meets sex

education.

Paps on Tap is a quarterly event series hosted by KIMBRITIVE where “Happy Hour (or Brunch) meets Sex Education.

Learning about your incredible body and how to care for it doesn’t always have to happen from a page in a brochure, a tab on your browser, or behind closed doors 🙅🏽‍♀️ – it can happen over cocktails, conversations, and celebration!

the workshops

Embodied Breathwork with Jasmine, because you need to breathe 

Breathwork is a  supportive, heart-centered,  transformative self-healing practice. It can take the form of conscious breathing that can support you in releasing, attuning, and connecting with your breath, desires, and full body.  

Sensual Herbalism with Brianne Patrice, because plants can help you tap into your ancestral magic 

Sensual herbalism is a heart-led workshop assembling our erotic power through sound, meditation, and plant magic. By the end of this workshop you will walk away with a powerful blend of herbs intended to support, care for and uplift you. How can you tap into your own magic? How can you, through the activation of your senses, allow plants to help you release, attract, and/or manifest? what parts of you will you allow them to comfort, heal and expose so that you can call in the life that you deserve?

Facials by Rebecca, because caring for the skin that you’re in is self-care.

An express facial is a brief treatment that helps you assess your skin type, and focuses on any concerns you may have. The treatment includes the following: 

  1. Skin analysis: We will assess your skin type and concerns to customize the treatment accordingly.

  2. Cleansing: A gentle cleanser will be massaged into the skin to remove dirt, oil, and makeup from your skin.

  3. Exfoliation: A physical or chemical exfoliant to remove dead skin cells to reveal brighter, smoother skin.

  4. Mask: A mask will be applied to your skin that will help to hydrate, nourish, or detoxify your skin.

  5. Sunscreen: Sunscreen will be applied to the skin for UV protection. 

DIY Bouquet Making & Affirmations, because you deserve your flowers while you can still smell them

You deserve your flowers and to celebrate yourself unapologetically. Lean into your creativity in community and give yourself the flowers you deserve by creating a floral arrangement that reflects your beauty. We’ll supply you with all the tools you need to design your bouquet and floral arrangement. 

Reimagining your Health & Wellness Journey with our Healthcare Homegirl Dr. Carla, because you deserve to know exactly how you want to be cared for

The Streets are talking about Paps On Tap

  • Black women deserve great sex AND great information—for us, about us, from us! Paps on Tap is an incredible experience that allows you to network and learn from other Black women and dive into otherwise “taboo” topics. Kimbritive is breaking down walls and opening up the conversation so that we all can be better informed!

  • I really enjoyed my first live Paps on Tap event! I attended by myself, so the conversation starters were so helpful in breaking the ice, making me more comfortable, and introducing me to the ladies I sat next to. The event was well put together. It was intimate, and all of the touches were thoughtful. I really appreciated the gift bag. Not only was I introduced to new products, but the quality of the bag will last me a while as well, lol. Thanks!

  • Paps on Tap was unlike any event I have attended before! I am glad I chose to put myself and my body first by attending. It was refreshing to be in community with Black women discussing our sexual wellness journeys and encouraging each other's growth. I was affirmed by the perspectives shared on the panel and left better equipped to handle my future sexual wellness health visits.

  • Omg the event was AMAZING, and I’m already anticipating the next one. As a medical professional myself, I found that there was still so much to learn about my sexual wellness as a Black woman. The two speakers were PERFECT, I felt like I was on a FaceTime call with my homegirls.

KIMBRITIVE is the unapologetic sexual wellness platform reimagining the health and well-being of Black women.

As a digital health company creating care spaces online and IRL, we provide sexual and reproductive health care and education where Black women feel seen, heard, and celebrated.
