Hi everyone,


Wanted to introduce a local lady (Northern California) that hand makes soaps and other beauty products as well as the best soy candles. Not everything is vegan, but most is and this is such an amazing soap. A bar works for body and hair - no conditioner needed. The essential oils smell so good, plus she will custom make orders with your favorite oils. So amazing and made right out of her house. Enjoy

Gabrielle,


I am always looking for great new products. What are your favorite products from gaia essentials? I am looking for a very simple skin care routine. Can the soaps be used for both face and body? I love fresh smelling products. Thanks!!!

Yes they can. I still use some other products for my face that I have used for years, but her soaps work wonderfully. I love the citrus and eucalyptus soaps, her natural deorderant is good, and I love her candles. She has skin products that others have used and they love them. I use the soap for both my body and hair and I do my hair every day. I used to think I had to have conditioner (I have very thick hair) and with her soap I don't need it. Makes it quick and easy. The smell is amazing too. You will love them. You can also contact Debbie directly - she is so knowledgeable and will tell you all about how she makes the products.


Let me know if you try them!

Gabrielle,


If you don't mind my asking, what products to you use, on your face? It is so hard to find natural products, that are effective. Thanks!!

I actually use products from Serious Skin Care. It is a company out of Santa Cruz, Ca but they sell on HSN. They are not "natural" in the same way as the Gaia-Essential products, but I have been using them for over 10 years and they really work on my skin. I may eventually try other things, but wasn't ready to give them up. They have several different lines of products that I can customize to how my skin is doing. I always get complements on my skin since I started using the products (vanity is a strong motivator:-).
