Make & Mary focuses on whole plant wellness with every oil, soap, candle, lotion, hand sanitizer made in house (shop is right behind the curtain!) with organic, ethically grown and wild botanicals. They use a full spectrum of hemp extract in their wellness products to reduce inflammation, support cell rejuvenation and sooth and hydrate skin. The oils feel divine, my skin was so soft! The natural botanicals truly make a difference! Typically if I walk into a boutique that has lots of scented soaps and candles, it overwhelms me within a minute, causing a headache and I have to walk out. Not at Make & Mary! My visit was at least 30 minutes and I just kept falling more and more in love with the scents. Today I purchased a Face and Body Serum with yummy scents of rose geranium, lavender, frankincense, sage and other botanicals. After sampling, I loved the way it made my skin feel and the scent. I'm in a pool 2 hours a day so I need a serum that replenishes moisture and provides a scent that masks the chlorine! Since we are all washing our hands several times a day, I picked up their scented, moisturizing sanitizer. The small spray bottle fits easily in my purse so I can use it in the go. Not only did it my hands germ free, it moisturized and left them smelling divine! In addition to the lotions, soaps, bath bombs, candles and such, they also have a small but beautiful selection of indoor houseplants, a few gorgeous throws weaved from natural fibers, books and tarot cards, and even some clothing. The collection of dusters made from recycled kimonos we're stunning and that make a statement anytime you wore one. Artsy and fun! I'm still debating getting one. Everything in the store has been made or curated from women owned businesses; items chosen to inspire one to live their best life, to take care of your body, heart and soul - total wellness. The owner, Yvonne, embodies all of this and her exuberance shines. I'm so happy that I randomly stopped here on my way to Dava Beads next door. I will definitely be back to shop and participate in their many workshops that focus on making items and connection with like minded participants. Support this local, woman owned, Latino business. Not because it's local, woman owned and Latino but because everything within the shop is high quality, well made and good for your body and soul!

Surprisingly, many locals are unaware of them, which is both a great thing (for loyalists) and shocking (given how incredible the products are). I recently stopped back in Maak Lab to update some of my scents, and I was so thankful that the Dafodyl is still in stock. There is something for everyone here, and you're bound to learn more about what scents work for you. I remember my first experience here in 2021 when I realized I am a "green" scent guy. This has been very helpful in my journey to collect more scents to wear, especially when traveling. You should also have this support! Maak curates dozens of products for notable brands and businesses in Portland. When you stop by here, I guarantee you'll be impressed by the connection to some of your favorite establishments. You can even purchase soaps, scents, candles, and many other products that brands you love to create with Maak. I still enjoy knowing that the Knot Springs soap I love is something I can purchase for home. Support local, and keep returning to the excellent Maak Lab team.

I can't say enough good about this place so I'll try to give a good rundown…read more My skin concerns: I suffer from pretty severe acne, and dry, ultra sensitive skin. The acne was mostly hormonal so it wouldn't have been fully fixed with topical treatments, but because of the severity it leaves my skin barrier extremely damaged; even more sensitive and prone to more surface level breakouts. I have tried just about everything my dermatologist suggested. I also have the skin condition Keratosis on my upper arms. Not necessarily damaging, but not great to have either. What I bought: Delicate Facial Bar ($5.95), Delicate Facial Cream ($14) for face and African Shea Soap ($5.95) for body. I have used the Shea Soap for about 4 months now; it's greatly lessened the Keratosis. Not completely gone, but it's a very thorough (and fragrance free ) soap that doesn't strip your skin. I did have greater success after using it and using a shea butter heavy moisturizer right after showering. But solely with the soap, I find it a good enough improvement to keep buying. I have used the Delicate Bar and Cream for about 2 months. The bar is SUCH a good purchase. It cleans the skin super well, and of course leaves a bit of a dryer feeling since it doesn't have whatever store bought soap adds to 'wash away' easier, but it isn't at all stripping or irritating, it just feels clean. Then facial cream is extremely moisturizing, calming, sinks into the skin quite quickly, and doesn't leave you feeling oily or sticky. Within a month, my skin barrier felt healthier and on a good recovery path, and at the end of two months, my skin has its glow back and I am so happy with it. Side note: the full bottle of facial cream is $14 and the travel sized is $4, I used the travel sized and it's lasted me near two months, so if you just want to test it it's a great option. Second Section: Along with skin sensitivity on my face, I have sensitive skin everywhere and the usual laundry soap started to irritate it. Their bulk soap is wonderful, smells like a dream but isn't overpowering; and it doesn't leave clothes all crunchy and stiff like a normal handmade soap would. When you pair it with the wool balls, it acts as a top-notch fabric softener. ($16.00 and $4.50 respectively.) Also bought: Soap Sock; it's held together well and I would also recommend The owner and the employees/partners working have always been very kind and helpful as well. Idk how to describe, but it doesn't have that small business awkward atmosphere of Entering, and Then Feeling the Owner Stare At You as You Navigate a Small Room and Feel Guilty if You Don't Buy Anything. They answer your questions, recommend some products, but otherwise create a very comfortable and helpful atmosphere. All this to say, I have NO complaints and this is a small business worth supporting.
