Part laboratory, part storefront, The Naked Mermaid Soapery is making bath products fun again. Owner Tracy Gunn is the mastermind behind the shop, but the story behind her whimsical creations doesn’t have as cheerful of a beginning.
After working as an animal pharmaceutical rep, Gunn was laid off and left to provide for her two children with less than $100 in her bank account. Running out of a soap she purchased in Las Vegas and realizing she didn’t want to return to the corporate world, Gunn decided to invest $32 in soap-making supplies. Using just a Facebook page, the next five months were spent working out of her kitchen, making soaps for her friends, and eventually blossoming her at-home creations into a thriving business that she brought to Delray Beach.
The Creations
Gunn opened The Naked Mermaid Soapery in August, selling soaps, sugar scrubs and bath bombs with an appropriate tropical feel. All products are made in-house with ingredients like coconut oil and sustainable palm oil. And while The Naked Mermaid Soapery serves as the storefront, Gunn manages a wholesale line with its production room located in the back. By May, her UR brand should be featured in more than 1,200 boutiques.
The name UR stems from the time Gunn and her older son spent at a single women’s shelter in the Bronx as she was launching her business venture. “While we were there, the director of the shelter would be talking to me, but when she would see someone come out of her room to head out for the day, she would stop them, touch them, hug them and say, ‘You are so perfect.’ ‘You are so amazing.’ ‘You are going to do great.’ ‘You can do anything you want to do.’ And that really stuck in my head,” Gunn says.
Today, her soaps are stamped with the UR logo paired with endearing, fun words to create affirmations like “UR Pretty,” “UR Sexy” and “UR Fearless.” Scents range from vanilla rose, to white tea and ginger, to cherry blossom.
When starting her company, Gunn especially wanted to hire women who have been in some sort of crisis, just as she had been. “[The women] come from everywhere—the police department, different organizations, battered women, women that have been in sex trafficking,” she says. By employing women to create the products, she hopes to make a difference in their lives.
Looking Ahead
While The Naked Mermaid Soapery is here to stay in Delray Beach, Gunn plans to open an even larger shop in Boca Raton. Her goal is to open up franchises along the coast of Florida while adding body butters and lotions to the mix. Plus, an all-natural line will be featured in health and wellness stores in the near future.

Why do we fall in love? How do we fall out of love?
Fueled by a divorce and multiple failed relationships, biologist Dawn Maslar spent more than five years studying the neuroscience of love. Her quest began in 2003 following the end of her marriage.
The 51-year-old Davie resident’s career blossomed. She found a job teaching biology at Broward College and later at Nova Southeastern University, but her love life was in tatters.
To help heal her heartbreak, Maslar began journaling. That’s when a light came on. “I realized the common denominator was me. I needed to do work on myself,” she explains.
The lessons learned from her logs led to Maslar’s first book, From Heartbreak to Heart’s Desire: Developing a Healthy GPS (Guy Picking System), in 2010.
Next, she joined a local women’s group, where she learned how common it is for women to choose the “wrong men.”
The biologist in Maslar wanted concrete answers. She holds a master’s of science in environmental management and an additional 18 credit hours of graduate work in biology from the University of Maryland University College.
Using the library at Nova, Maslar researched the neuroscience of love. In other words, how does love work? Slowly, she connected the dots from the more than 200 studies used in her book. Some of that data came from studies conducted by the U.S. Air Force that were followed up and expanded on by Harvard University.
The studies explored how the brain works—or doesn’t—when we fall in love; how our senses guide us in picking a mate; what part hormones play; and the biggie: Is long-term love possible?
Maslar’s personal life improved drastically once she understood how biology influences the choices we make when selecting partners. Today she is in a happy, committed relationship. “I looked for characteristics of people I wanted to meet, not necessarily how they made me feel. I realized that attraction had nothing to do with love,” she says. “Later the love can grow.”
Unexpectedly, her newfound knowledge also resulted in a new career.
Now she holds seminars teaching others how human biology affects love. Maslar presents her knowledge with interactive shows to prove that attraction is based on our senses and our brains. In one experiment, she has a small group of people on the stage. A blindfolded male or female smells the hair of three people to show how smell influences attraction.
Want to catch the love guru in action? On March 23, she is teaching “The Science of Attraction” at NSU’s Lifelong Learning Institute. She is discussing her second book, Men Chase, Women Choose: The Neuroscience of Meeting, Dating, Losing Your Mind, and Finding True Love, on March 25 at Barnes & Noble in Fort Lauderdale. And on April 18, Maslar is conducting an interactive show, “The Great Love Experiment,” at Broward College, North Campus.

This $100M Center For Collaborative Research Is Like A Coworking Space For Nova Southeastern University's Top Researchers And Thinkers
Frank McKinney eschews the terms typically used to describe someone in his line of work: builder, designer, developer. The way he sees it, he’s a real estate artist. And his canvas is Florida’s Gold Coast.
McKinney works in only one medium: luxury homes with commensurately high price tags. The 41 oceanfront mansions he’s built on spec along Palm Beach County’s southern coastline are not just big—they’re enormous, including a 3-acre, 32,000-square-foot estate with four stories, nine bedrooms and a 12-car garage, which sold for $50 million after only three days on the market.
Despite his success, McKinney (who at 53 pulls off an upscale rocker-chic look so effortlessly that you begin to question your own level of cool) says he’s never been one to settle comfortably into convention. Now he’s reinventing his brand, challenging the bigger-is-better movement that has been his mentality for the past 35 years.
So what do you do when you’ve maxed out mega? You go micro—as in micro mansion.
“The micro mansion is the newest concept in ultra-high end homes, and I’m the first one to tap into it here,” McKinney says. He knows he’s treading in market-making territory, and he knows it’s a risky place to be. Luckily, McKinney insists his risk tolerance is strong. “I flex it like a muscle,” he says, laughing.
The idea to create a home that’s small on space and low on maintenance (but big on luxury) was born when client after wealthy client expressed interest in downsizing.“We’re witnessing an evolution of the high-end buyer’s mindset,” McKinney explains. “They still demand artistry, quality, extravagance and leading edge technology. But now they want it all in a more manageable home.” To that end, the luxurious finishes that are McKinney’s stock in trade are still in play. But instead of spreading them across 40,000 square feet, he’s packing them into just over 4,000.
Four thousand square feet might not sound micro to you, especially when the average U.S. home clocks in just shy of 2,800 square feet. But this home at 19 Tropical Drive in Ocean Ridge is anything but average.
Consider, for example, its ocean views from the second story (the beach is a flip-flop friendly 345 feet away), its dining table crafted from a single piece of driftwood, its living reef aquarium featuring a lightning storm simulator, its sun deck that floats between a pair of tranquil pools, or McKinney’s favorite feature: its custom sea glass countertops. “They put us way over the budget,” he confesses, describing a rare moment of internal discord in which his artistic side prevailed over his entrepreneurial side, “But they were worth every penny.”
The home comes smartly furnished in a soothing wave of marine blues and sandy neutrals, and with sheets on the beds, towels in the linen closets and toothbrushes in the vanities, it’s move-in ready. Even so, the $3.9 million price tag is no small change. But Frank is confident there’s a buyer out there—someone, as he puts it, “who is done paying homage to their ego.”
After unveiling the property in February to a gaggle of real estate agents representing some of the world’s wealthiest people, McKinney is one step closer to finding that someone with each showing. “My job is to intoxicate the buyer, to lead them through my artistic vision,” he says.
McKinney knows that some will scoff at his new concept and at its moniker, which he acknowledges is “an oxymoron in the tradition of jumbo shrimp.” But he’s sticking with it. As McKinney points out, “Everybody loves jumbo shrimp.”
For the high-end buyer who wants a smaller house with luxury finishes in a prime location, McKinney views his micro mansion as a prototype standing alone in the face of what he’s certain is a rapidly rising level of demand. “Like Tesla’s first electric car, or Apple’s first iPhone,” he says, proudly. To help fill the supply gap, micro mansion 2.0 is already in the design phase, planned for a nearby oceanfront lot McKinney recently acquired.
“I’m in the business of knowing what the ultra-wealthy buyer wants before they know they want it,” McKinney says. “And then I’m in the business of providing it. That’s what I’ve done and what I’ll continue to do, God-willing.”

Delray Beach Mansion Reportedly Belonging To Kevin James On The Market For $28.8 Million
A Boca Raton Home Undergoes A Transitional Design With Rich Tones, Neutral Palette
It began as a family story. “There was a very beautiful couple that moved here from up north, and their daughter lived here,” says interior designer Eve Beres, owner of Beres Design Group in Jupiter. The woman had seen Beres’ work in a local magazine and hired her to design her parents’ personal home. When the family formed a construction company, Muir-Yeonas Homes, Beres was the natural choice to design their spec homes.
The iron railing of the stairway is inspired by the Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra jewelry design.
A MODEL HOME
The Silver Palm Residence is located in the Royal Palm Yacht & Country Club in Boca Raton. Beres was brought in to take charge of the interior floor plan, cabinetry, finishes and materials. “They had an architect, and then I came in and what I do is critique the architecture and shape the architectural interior space, and become a consultant on all of it,” she explains. She was given carte blanche to do what she wanted with the design, a perk of the history she shares with the family. “It’s nice to have a relationship with the builder because they really trusted me,” Beres says.
The two-story, 5,842-square-foot home has five bedrooms and 6.5 bathrooms. The style is transitional throughout, with a neutral palette that allows for pops of color in unexpected places. The entrance opens into a grand foyer with beige marble tile. A staircase to the right features a custom iron bannister, which was inspired by the Van Cleef & Arpels Alhambra jewelry design.
A transitional limestone fireplace with antique mirror provides a focal point, with built in bookcases on either side.
LIVING AND DINING ROOMS
The transitional style is highlighted in the living room with a sleek limestone fireplace framed by sconces and balanced on each side by built-in bookcases. The furniture is a soothing mix of warm beige tones and an understated purple, with a glass- and chrome-coffee table and an antique mirror above the fireplace. The result achieves a subtle bounce of the light, creating an inviting, airy atmosphere in the room.
The dining room features a 12-foot ceiling, with the corners curved to feel more like an old world Spanish design. To break up the height, all the millwork has been brought down to where the arch of the entrance begins. An antique mirror is used again to expand the space through light. “The mirror formed a really beautiful reflection at night,” Beres says. A large wood table is centered under a chandelier with a mix of dining chair styles used for seating.
Carrara marble countertops and a mix of dark and natural walnut adds richness to the kitchen.
The bar has custom walnut cabinetry and granite countertops, with a glass tile backsplash and hammered copper sink.
KITCHEN AND BAR
Marble tiles transition to dark walnut wood flooring in the kitchen. The concept is left open to the living room, with details such as upholstered barstools and wall niches to bridge the gap in the transition of space. A large island of natural walnut provides a center point, lit with large pendants in polished nickel that are an ode to the industrial while keeping with the transitional style of the home. Countertops in Carrara marble add an extra layer of elegance.
The bar moves back to the marble tiles, and features custom walnut cabinetry with built-in lighting, a beveled mirror, granite countertops and a hammered copper sink with glass tile backsplash.
The office design is based on a square pattern, using positive and negative space with the niches and panels.
A chandelier of Venetian glass sticks adds to the abundant natural light in the master bedroom, which is softened with plush materials.
MASTER SUITE
The master bedroom is a sumptuous retreat, with silk pillows, a plush faux fur throw, silk curtains, linen settee and a hide ottoman. A large double window overlooks the pool and provides plenty of natural light. A chandelier made of Venetian glass sticks adds another touch of luxury.
The master bathroom is divided into his and hers, connecting through either a hallway or opposite entrances to the shower. Her bathroom is a delicately feminine space, with marble flooring accented with inlaid strips of mother of pearl, a beveled mirror, crystal knobs and polished nickel fixtures.
A spiral staircase leads to an upstairs deck overlooking the pool and heated jacuzzi.
OUTDOOR SPACE
The outdoor space offers a pool, heated jacuzzi, upper deck and covered patio space divided into three zones. “We tried to make sure we had [a] TV and fireplace without blocking too much of the view,” Beres says. Furnishings and materials were chosen to create a sense of the inside being outside.
THE FINAL STORY
The house served as a crown jewel, giving potential buyers a glimpse of the good life. It has since been sold, and has now transformed from a much-appreciated model to a well-loved home for its current family.
