Herbolution

I have to say that my experience with Sasha and Veronika at Herbolution has been a delightful experience from start to finish. I was pleased to be able to review two of their many body care items. First I'll point out that they are all Organic, many are vegan, handcrafted in the US and made with recycled and sustainable packaging. In addition to their body care line of products, they make home, office and
fashion items with the same care and attention.


 
I reviewed Herbolutions Baby Floral Water and Baby Balm. As soon as I opened the box that came in the mail I was treated to an herbal experience. I have to admit that I have a weakness for lavender so when each baby product came wrapped in a biodegradable bag with lavender and herbs I was impressed. These whole dried botanicals are food grade and all natural so they are easy to add to a loose tea if you want to have the full experience. They also enclosed a sample of another wonderful sample, a return customer coupon, and other descriptions of their products all printed on sustainable banana paper.
 
 

This is the Baby Floral Water in a glass spray bottle with it's accompanying herbs. My two main uses for this product were bum cleaning, and hair taming. For diaper changing it's great to use on my cloth wipes when it's not too messy of a diaper just to freshen her up and clean any ammonia left on her skin. The lavender scent is wonderful and is paired with a chamomile that is a little too sweet for my taste but I have been known to be picky when it comes to scents. I am certified scent crazy by a receptionist with whom I once worked. I used to sneak into her office down the hall and turn her plug-in air fresheners off when she was away. Usually I could smell spiced apple or Tahitian vanilla for an hour after I left work. We weren't close, she and I.
 

 
Coral has a crazy hair do most days but I hardly notice since mine is usually just a crazy. Here's a picture of Coral's usual hair mess at the local bookstore. While she fits in with the intellectual crowd, she is looking much more dapper with a few spritzes of my Baby Floral Water. Other uses for the spray are as follows:  a light facial toner with soothing properties, hair reviver, linen spray, clothes freshener, air freshener, add 2 Tb to bath tub to enhance the relaxing experience
 
 

The Touch of Nature Baby Balm is so wonderful. It is a light paste that melts in your hands to a gentle and lightly scented moisturizer and protecter that quickly absorbs into your baby's skin. I used it on her bum when chapped and regularly on her legs and arms since it's so dry in our house this time of year. It's also a treat for me to use and my hands are lightly moisturized after using on the baby.
 
 
Sasha and Veronika are generously offering one Baby Balm and one Floral Water Spray to our readers. We will be picking two winners and giving the balm to the first, and the spray the the second!
