    Hi, @sugarrae!

    Your minified stylesheet includes this CSS:

    ;@font-face {
        font-family: 'icosplash';
        src: url(https://sugarraezone-sugarrae.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/splash/lib/fonts/icosplash.eot);
        src: url(https://sugarraezone-sugarrae.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/splash/lib/fonts/icosplash.eot) format('embedded-opentype'),url(https://sugarraezone-sugarrae.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/splash/lib/fonts/icosplash.woff) format('woff'),url(https://sugarraezone-sugarrae.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/splash/lib/fonts/icosplash.ttf) format('truetype'),url(https://sugarraezone-sugarrae.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/themes/splash/lib/fonts/icosplash.svg) format('svg');
        font-weight: 400;
        font-style: normal
    }

    That semicolon at the start should not be there, and is preventing the icon font that usually displays your social icons from loading. If I remove it in dev tools your icons appear fine:

    You could try:

    – Disabling stylesheet minification temporarily. If this solves things you could report the issue to the minification plugin developer or service provider, and/or try a different minification plugin.

    – If disabling minification has no effect, I recommend reporting the issue to Themedy, the developer of the Splash theme your site is using (which loads the icon font): https://themedy.com/forum/categories/splash.
