Hi, I make many of my purchases on etsy because I love the unique items and it feels wonderful to support small businesses. I am always searching for skincare and have had great luck.
Last year, I found Rainwater Botanicals. Her "Toner for Troubled Skin" is truly a HG item for me. I have posted about this a few times already! http://www.etsy.com/shop/rainwaterbotanicals
Now, I wanted to share about my experience with Glorybe Herbals (also on etsy). http://www.etsy.com/shop/Glorybeherbals?ref=seller_info
I was looking for a face balm for the winter months, and boy did I hit the "jackpot". Good price and quality.
Here is what I got:
Frankincense and Myrrh Hydrosol and Eldferflower Hydrosol: these smell wonderful. Hand crafted so rich and deep. I am going to use these before applying a moisturizer or while using my AALS. I used this an hour ago and I can still smell it on my skin. YUMMY!
Vegan Friendly Under Eye Balm:
Super light, but moisturizing.
Shea butter and horsetail butter; Avocado oil, Apricot Kernel oil, Argan oil, Meadowfoam oil, castor oil; Helichrysum essential oil
Neroli Night Cream:
I got this because I am addicted to all things Neroli. Great texture.
virgin olive oil, jojoba oil, avocado oil, meadowfoam oil, tucumu butter, olive oil squalene and neroli hydrosol.
Hair Treatment with Shea Butter and Essential Oils for Dry Brittle Hair: Smells great. Not too heavy.
shea butter, avocado oil, olive oil, grapeseed oil and essential oils of rosemary, lavender and basil.
I just wanted to share this great "discovery". I love the thought of DIY, but just do not have the money to invest in all the ingredients to get started at this time. This is perfect because I can feel good about what I put on my skin. |

A few weeks in, and I really love this.
My favorites are the hair balm. I use a pea size amount, melt it in my hands and smooth on before drying. My hair is thin and this does not weigh it down. My hair feels really conditioned and shiny.
The Vegan eye balm. I am obsessed with this. I use it everywhere: cuticles, eyes, hands. Super soothing. I really can smell the coffee and I think that helps with eye puffiness.
The Neroli Night cream: super thick. I use it mainly when my skin is irritated. Definitely a night cream. Smells divine!

I am still loving her products... I am about out of my neroli cream and plan to order more.
The ingredients are top notch and feel really good about putting them on my skin!
Plus, I love supporting small businesses. |

He erg,
Have you seen this you tube channel;

Some very nice DIY videos, and all materials are from "GloryBe"
I made the body butter (#7 video), and it's quite nice. |

I have ordered twice now from Glorybeherbals because I am so delighted with their products and their prices.
I just love their frankincense and myrrh hydrosol, it is very anti-ageing, imparts me with a glow of freshness and smells delicious.
This is just an HG product for me. I just ordered it for a second time as it is second to none.
The yarrow hydrosol is also great especially for spider veins etc and refining pores.
I also tried her all natural perfume called Venus which is beautiful and smells very exotic, very sexy.
She even included a free sample in my order this time of amber oil which was spicy and very lovely.
This is a great little on-line store, thanks so much to the other reviewers here for helping me discover it. |

Under Eye Balm, Facial toner and Stephanie's Rescue cream.
These are HG for me as well! |

Thank you SO much for this review, we don't hear enough about independent sellers. Have to support them when they are small so they make it big and we can order them here on EDS.
I'm currently wearing the Elderflower Hydrosol on top of Neroli night cream and the Vegan Eye Balm. I also ordered the Frankensence and Myrrh Hydrosol and the Yarrow Hyrodosol. The seller was so sweet she threw in a few samples for some aromotheray oil (amazing but I spilled some of it upon opening) and lavender hydrosol. Really beautiful products. |

I love glorybeherbals too! The frankincense and myrrh hydrosol is also my favourite. I have also tried her amber oil which is a delicious natural perfume, spicy and sensual. The moisturizers are gorgeous too but I use other soaps and toners.
So the other etsy seller I adore is LUNASEA botanicals, her remedy soap and natural salicylic toner, scrub and mask have evened out my skin tone to the point where I have no blemishes, no age spots, and my skin is just glowing. It has even faded some fine linkes.
Between using the glorybeherbals hydrosol every day, the luneasea products, my skin has never looked better. Just adds proof for me that natural products often given better results than creams full of empty ageing chemicals!!! |

Feel silly replying to myself but just after I wrote this I contacted Glorybeherbals to ask about the eye balm and she responded right away and said she would make a new batch so it's listed again. That's great customer service! |

She is wonderful - I just tried her aromatherapy oils and they are just beautiful blends. |
