We were eating next door and I saw this cute store on the way in and had to stop before going home…read more We were greeted by the most adorable dog and a friendly staff member who offered me a tour and a free sample. The products smell amazing and I was surprised at the variety, loofahs, deodorants, lotions, doggy soaps, soap dishes and more. The scents aren't scant either, there are plenty to choose from. I really enjoy that they have shea butter in them and all the ingredients are natural and not a bunch of chemicals. When checking out I asked about online ordering and was given a coupon to use online. The staff member working today remained friendly and upbeat and seemed genuinely excited about their products. It is always nice to buy from small local shops where there is genuine joy and love for their product. I am so happy that I came across this store and will definitely be returning.

I miss Soapy, but she deserved to retire. Her replacement Bubbles, had big paws to fill and she's…read moredoing a great job. As soon as we entered, she came galloping from the back stockroom to do a meet and greet. She's a sweetie. As I said in my previous review, I am a "bar hopper". I like to go around and support a variety of locally owned handcrafted soap boutiques. Since I moved to Illinois five years ago, I've been shopping on the east side of the river. Since I was having on The Hill, I made a point to shop, Herbaria The one thing that was on top of my list, Shave Soap. When shaving, I prefer a good lather from a shave soap over a cream or cream. Herbaria has several scents to choose from and I chose, Bay Rum and Jojoba. I am looking forward to my first shave with my new bar. I also bought a bar of Soapy's Choice. In the past, I've had very furry long haired dogs in the past, but now I have two Chihuahua mixes and they have very short fine hair. So, I thought I'd give Soapy's Choice a try. I'm sure my little girls are going to like showering with daddy. My other bar of soap was, Citrus Oatmeal. I love a good oatmeal soap, it invigorates my skin. To help my new bar last longer in the shower I bought a, Soap Lift. I liked that they had a good selection of colors, I grabbed a grey to match the colors in my primary en suite. The sales associates are personable and not high pressure. They are there to assist you, answer questions and to make recommendations. With their good customer service and Bubbles puppy dog eyes, I guarantee you will not walk out empty handed. When: January 13, 2026 Why: Shave Soap and more

I have been trying to go to Cassie's since May! My girls and I were supposed to go after my…read morebirthday brunch but things got turned around. Even after then I was never on that side of town when the store was open. Well today was my day!! I walked up and pulled the door and was excited that it opened. I heard a voice but didn't see anyone. A welcoming bubbly voice. A few seconds later Cassie appeared. Just as bubbly as her voice. I didn't know how anything worked so she explained the scents and what I could do. I first started smelling the oils. I quickly gravitated towards 3 scents. She put them on a swatch so that I could see how they smelled together. I loved them!! Up next was the home fragrance. I went over and started to smell scents because another gentleman came in to re-up on his fragrance. I smelled the Ocean Breeze first. I was sold on that one. I continued to smell other scents though. The ocean breeze smelled so clean and inviting. Cassie came over and once again explained to me how the lamp worked and even gave me a demonstration. Told me how many hours each size would last. By this time I'm invested!! Take my money please. So I picked a lamp and luckily enough it came with the fragrance I wanted. The only reason I didn't buy extra was because my husband is always looking for stuff to buy me. I will send him back when we need extra scent oils. I'm super excited about my purchase and I know exactly where I am putting my lamp. Thank you Cassie! I love your store and we will definitely be back!

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of being helped by Somer S. during our recent perfume…read moreshopping experience, and we couldn't be more grateful! From the moment we walked in, she made us feel welcome and at ease. Her knowledge of fragrances was truly impressive--she took the time to understand our preferences, patiently guiding us through different scents without ever making us feel rushed. Not only was she incredibly knowledgeable, but her kindness and genuine enthusiasm made the entire experience so enjoyable. She went above and beyond to help us find the perfect perfumes, and we left feeling confident in our choices. Excellent customer service like hers is rare, and we are so appreciative of her help. If you're looking for someone who truly cares about what they do and makes the shopping experience special, Somer S. is the person to see. Thank you again for everything--you've gained two very happy (and great-smelling!) customers!

Continuing the trend on things guys typically don't review: Kyphi Parfumerie…read more.. Think: designer perfumes, bath and body works and high-end skin care products for the ladies - all custom-made - and you've got this delightful little outfit. The story: for a large-ish wedding and various pre-wedding events, we were looking for unique gifts for the ladies that would be useful, stylish and memorable. As way lead on to way, we came across Kyphi - and could not have been more pleased. The Good: we ended up chatting with the owner, to get a better grasp on the offerings, pricing etc. and, pleasantly enough, were presented with less a sales pitch than a "Here's what shea butter is, here's how you use it and this is why people love it" conversation describing the products, what typical packages look like for various events (bridal shower vs. wedding vs. special occasion for wife / girlfriend / mother / sister / friend etc.) and a host of other things. The Better: following the conversation, the owner put together a sample package and sent pics of how it would appear - and offered to send samples of the various scents, to help guide our decision. The Best: the products are fantastic quality (per the ladies), unique and absolutely memorable - so much so that we've returned to help "bling out" other events and use as stocking stuffers. Now back to guy stuff.

I went a few months prior to my daughter-n- law's Bridal Shower and Hannah did my eye makeup as a test run for the wedding. She did a GREAT job and I'm not much for eye shadow. She was professional,patient and VERY sweet and accommodating! I went back to her for the wedding and again, she did a WONDERFUL job! She made what could have been a very stressful weekend living out of town, a peaceful,stress free and perfect weekend!!! She's a gem!

David always gets me taken care of and all of the employees are extremely knowledgeable on the products and I have yet to have a recommendation that I haven't loved.

Simply Foo Foo featuring Custom Scented Products fits a niche like no other. Situated by solid…read moreanchor stores such as popular Tropical Moose snow cones, a bookstore, an art gallery, restaurants Big Sky cafe, and Roadhouse 66 as neighbors, the location is comfortable and ideal. It is worth a visit for even just one of those places. What they have at Simply Foo Foo is an assortment of custom scents that you can create and blend with bath and body products such as soaps, lotions, perfumes, bath bombs / balls, colognes. I am very sensitive to aroma and hence flavors. I guess that makes sense for a yelper who reviews mostly restaurants and foods. I digress. Anyhow, there are alot of rare and exotic scents I haven't seen in awhile. I can see how making a meaningful gift can incorporate a scent associated with someone; whether its the ocean lilacs, peach, cotton candy, evergreen, juniper, ginger, or masculine scents. I really like the "Comfort & Joy Box" concept; a collection of soothing scents and products. Apparently, the owner came up with a form of healing that expanded beyond the typical "card"or flowers that may occur after the death of a loved one. I saw great gifts that were geared toward celebration ie. baby showers, mother's day, valentine's day, or even graduations. The "Bundle of Joy" is for new mothers. You can also customize these gift boxes or add to them! The best part is the owner Lucy who will sit down with you and work with you on personalized fragrances for yourself as a gift for someone. The personal attention is great and the prices ideal. You don't feel like a customer of any ol' franchise. You feel like your with family. I'd check the hours on their website. They are closed on Monday and Wednesdays as far as I know. If you see the Tropical Moose snow cone sign, just look under and you will find this store.

Locally sourced, hand-picked crystals & crystal necklaces, tie-dye clothing & masks - so much incredible artisanal amazingness! Even CBD bath bombs & soap for extra relaxation. It will be a real practice this gift-giving season to actually be able to part with any of the amazing products I purchase... we'll see!! I felt totally at home & inspired by the combination of rock n roll/earthy/artsy vibes the showroom exudes! For lack of a better word, it is just so COOL in there with a big claw foot steel bathtub in the entry filled with super creatively named & fragranced bath bombs, cool music playing & beautiful smells coming from the awesome staff in the back creating these gorgeous, one-of-a-kind products (comparable to LUSH, but with cleaner ingredients from what I understand & much more interesting, beautiful flavors!!) Side note: herbalist on staff! These products are more than just great smells, their healing power is totally legit. I esp love the "Magic Neem" bar soap for my fickle face skin. It's gentle & doesn't strip my face's natural oils. So great! Thank you!!! Xo!
