I am obsessed with this place!! Talk about a hidden gem!! A chemist from France formulating her own skin line at a fraction of the price that you would buy the products at a spa!!!! Yes please!!! Can you tell I'm a big fan!! You have to try the peel!! Your skin feels like silk afterwards!! read more

Paul and Paul (father and son) did an incredible job helping our daughter Olivia make a candle for her Naunie. Their hospitality was above and beyond. When we walked by later, Paul Sr. Came out to greet us and gave us some great advice for a place to eat and avoid the two hour wait expectancy we had been given. Thank you Paul and Paul for a great experience. We will be back next time! read more

Love the place! My daughters, 9 and 6 loved making the candles. The lady was so patient with them. It has amazing products. Bought some soaps and solid lotion. The soaps were so appetizing, my husband wanted to take a bite out of some. He even compelled to make a candle for his secret santa's gift, a lot to ask from a man who had to use hands and feet to tape a folder. Glad we found the place. Will definitely come back. read more

Great shop with some really nice items. My daughter was able to make her own candle with a scent that she likes right there in the store. Staff was very friendly. Wish we could've bought more while we were there. read more

We just made can sales here on our family vacation and it was awesome! The owner was sweet and her daughter helped us out! I'm so happy we stopped here, all the scents are amazing! read more

This place is amazing, with many handmade, organic bath and beauty products. My fiance and I had a blast making each other candles, which was easy and you can choose your own scent. Best of all, we made two candles for less than $15 and they are beautiful! The service was very friendly, and she made sure to be there to answer any questions but also provided privacy to where you can just have fun with your friend or whomever you go with. It's a must when up here! read more

Affordable candle making in the mix. My kids had a blast. Would definitely recommend

There are so many wonderful things to say about this place I'm not even sure where to begin. Well, we come to big bear once a year and we always make sure to stop by Ohnaturel located in the village of Big Bear. It's a perfect little shop to make your own scented candles, lotions, sprays, scrubs etc. Not to mention the products are all organic and the owner is an amazing chemist who makes everything herself. This year we learned that her brother will be taking over the shop for a while and he is amazing. He helped us choose our scents for our candles, gave us a nice glossy finish upgrade on them for free and even gave us a free bath bomb (which made my whole tub smell like lavender, it was awesome!) You can tell he really loves his job and isn't just there because he has to be. So I would definitely recommend this place not only for the amazing products, but also for the amazing service that they offer all the time. It's a perfect place for all ages. read more

Great place! It was fun making candles and they have a variety of scents. The owner and her daughter were so friendly.

You HAVE to come visit this place if you ever visit Big Bear. I would come back JUST to visit this store, the owner, and to make some more candles. The candles were so fun to make, good prices, and smelt so amazing!!!! You pick your own scents, colors, and shape/size. The owner and her son are so so nice and genuine. An amazing experience walking in and getting to know them and the store. :) read more

great place for bath balls and candles very friendly staff will go back you can also make your own scented candle super cool place

Fun and affordable. The owners are incredibly warm and inviting. Even helped point us in the direction of some good food in the village.

Super cute shop with a friendly atmosphere. Came here on my first trip to Big Bear because I had a really bad cold and was looking for a way to breathe easier on my trip. The owner created a custom blend for me of aromatic essential oils for me. At first I was put off at the steep price, but that didn't last long. I sniffed the oil intermittently and put it in an oil diffuser that night. By the next afternoon I felt so much better and by the end of the trip I was completely cured! This spot has quickly become my favorite place in Big Bear! read more

I've been here twice and I love it! Everyone is very njce and it is so much fun! The candles turn out great and they make great gifts!

Smells wonderful and couldn't ask for better hospitality!! My daughter made candles here and we will be back for sure. If you go to big bear this is a place not to miss!!! read more

Pain relief for sciatica!!!! I just wanted to say thank you to Chrystel for making me an inhaler and muscle rub for my excruciating pain which is because I suffer from Piriformis Syndrome. I use the rub 2xs a day once before my stretching in the morning and the other in the evening when I massage the area. Throughout the day I use the inhaler which helps manage the pain. I do still take a muscle relaxer but her products help me sleep and I couldn't thank her more for her amazing knowledge. If you suffer from sciatic pain you know some days you can barely move or simply sit or stand without that terrible pain. Because of her products slowly I am gaining control of my chronic pain. read more

OMFG when I saw this shop bae knew he needed to sit down because I'd be here all night! This cute little shop is the shop of my dreams. The don't use any animal products in the candles plus they are organic!! The best part is that the shop owner makes mostly everything in the store (soaps, creams, lots of creams, candles, lotions, lip balm)! The creams can get a little pricey, but the owner stands by her products. As for the make your own candles. They start at $6 (which is a great deal for the size) then the largest ones are $45 and they are massive! There are tons of colored wax pieces you can put in the candle mold to make them unique to you. I made bae make a candle with me and we had an amazing time making our special candles. The candles turned out so stunning that we came back the next day to make more extravagant shapes and color patterns. This is definitely my fav new place for candles. Bae and I will most certainly be back for more!!! Just sayin read more

I absolutely love this place. It's the only reason why I go to Big Bear. I love the soap. I have the coconut and pomegranate ones. I love how they make my skin feel and I love the smell of them. I have made a candle in a Diamond shape and the campfire scent. I don't want to light the candle but my bf lite it anyways. I would recommend this place to everyone I know. read more

I love that you can make your own candles. I had a fun time making candles. I will come back again!!!!!

This shop is within walking distance of my place of employment. Lucky me! I walk down to shop for all of my favorite beauty and skin products after work! They always have something new to try and I have been very impressed with almost everything I have tried. The owner is very knowledgeable and helpful about answering questions. It is very important to know exactly what we put on our skin and that it is 100 % natural. They are welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend for any one who visits Big Bear Lake Ca. to stop in for a very personal shopping experience. read more

This a very nice family friendly place to get pretty good bath soaps etc. The owner is extremely nice and jolly. For him the customer service is the most important. In his words- he will make sure that 'you leave with a bigger smile than you walked in the door'. read more

Walking down the village in big bear and came across this adorable little candle shop. So glad I walked in here! Who knew making a candle would be so much fun. If you have a chance stop in and have a great experience! read more

We stopped by yesterday 12/27 at 4pm (the stated hours are 10-6), the store was closed and the owner indicated they would be open today from 10-6. Parking is crazy this week with a lot of people in town for the holiday so it was an effort to get in and out of town to go to Diamond Plate. We hoped the effort would be worth it. We came back today just before 5pm.. he had several customers but told us we could not come in because he had a family reunion to go to. Twice we tried, twice turned away... after getting our kids and family in the car. Lame. Not the way a small town business is going to thrive or build a good reputation. Very disappointing. He could have posted his hours, or let us know the day before that he was closing early. I'd make sure they are open and serving customers before you go!!!! read more

Loved this place! Both Paul's are hilarious and welcoming. If y'all can make it to here while visiting you won't regret it. Great date place or even better place for a girls day. read more

We celebrated our 1 year wedding anniversary and decided to go to Big Bear. We were recommended by the tourist office to check out this place and make a candle. It was a great suggestion, we had a lot of fun! The owner was lovely. We made an awesome candle and bought some great smelling soap as well. We had a great experience and plan on going back when we are next in town. read more

I can't even describe what a magical place it is. The owners are very lovely and talented couple, who will help you to make your own scented candles. They will first give you many options to choose from for your candle's shape, so many to choose from, my favorite was the long star pillar, ($10) then they'll show you all the amazing scents, there are so much to choose from and they all are soo good, and last you choose the many colored wax cubes, which you can mix and match the way of your likeing, making your own candle by placing the little colored wax cubes into the metal candle mold of your choice. My 6 year old little boy had soo much fun making his candle and loved this place...so did I ... My little boy had a big red swallen scratch under his nose and his upper lips from falling off his sled in the snow, and the owner lady gave us a sample of her healing organic skin care product...5 minutes after she applied it the the redness was completly gone and it was completly healed the next day... Thank you so much, I feel bad I didn't purches any of her skin care and other amazing products she makes, because I really had no idea, it's true healing powers...we only went there to make candles...but for sure we'll be back as soon as we can....My friend was also with us she wanted a siamese cat candle. And the owner's husband made that special candle, he worked so very hard on it, way passing closing time for my friend...The outcome of the candle was spectacular, shaped exactly as a cat and looked just like the siamese cats with blue eyes and brown ears... What a unique talent...Thank you kindly for your patience and dedication..They even offered us help to find a place to rest for the night...Woooow....Unbeatable customer service, both so talented, the lady is a true healer, amazing couple...Best shop in Big Bear Lake. Thank you so kindly for everything, and may God bless you guys always. read more

Great place to take your wife or girlfriend for a date! My wife and I really enjoyed the personal touch that Chrystel and Phil gave us. We made a couple of candles and we got to pick the shape, size, colors and fragrance. We build it together and then Phil finished it off and because it was very slow there at the time he got creative and cut a few designs into it for us. Very personalized! We have the candle siting in our office space now and I get nostalgia every time I smell it. Thank you! read more

If I could I would give 1000 stars! Not only is it so fun making candles and it's very affordable, the owner Chrystel is sooooo kind and just a great person. It made the experience even more wonderful because she was so sweet. Between my friend and I, we made 16 candles, there's so many great scents to choose from. They make great gifts! We also bought some lotions and soy candles. Almost everything is customizable. One of the best things to do in Big Bear! read more

This is the cutest place ever! The lady who owns this place is amazing! She is so nice and friendly!!! We got to make our own candles and she talked to us like we were old friends while waiting for the candles to cool. It is relatively inexpensive and again the customer service is AMAZING! My only regret is that we had no cash so we couldn't give her a tip but we will definitely be back again!!!! I would recommend this place to anyone, especially anyone who loves candles!!! read more

This place is awesome. The owner is so knowledgable about the products in the store. They helped my kids make candles, which we will now go in and do every time we are in Big Bear. I bought some bath teas that are amazing and I cant wait to go in for some soaps, lotions and essential oils. Absolutely recommend stopping in next time you make a trip to Big Bear. read more
