Stumbled upon a total gem yesterday! My sister Reisa…read moreSalonga and I were wandering through downtown Pleasanton and couldn't resist popping into Good Common Sense. The outside was covered in the most beautiful spring flower decorations....it perfectly matched the gorgeous weather! We were so inspired to learn that everything in the shop is handmade and completely free of harsh chemicals. We even got to meet the owner, who is incredibly knowledgeable and down to earth. It honestly brought so much light to our lives just discovering such a thoughtful, local spot. If you're looking for high-quality natural skincare or just a "feel-good" local shop, you have to check this place out. Such a perfect day to be free and discover something new! They had dinosaur egg bath bombs with a hidden toy inside and a bunny bath bomb that you can paint and add to an Easter basket..you know I got a couple for King! For myself, I indulged on their handmade soap bar with this cloth material that acts as a scrubber and holder for your soap and sugar body scrub that I can't wait to try.

Just a quick update…read more I like a darker lip color. Last year I found Witch, Please! at good common sense. It is a seasonal color so I was unable to replace the tube I lost until September when they made a new batch. I went in and bought 2 tubes. I wasn't happy with the depth of color on the new batch. When I said something, the owner agreed the color wasn't the same and apologized. She said would get additional mica and replace it for me. After I bought the new tubes, I found my missing tube so now I have 3! Thanks for making a customer happy!

I appreciated how Annabell was informative and friendly and not pushy about product or upselling (a big turn off for me). I walked away with several products that I was excited about and understood how to use.

Stumbled in here to buy some gifts one day, and the store itself was a bit overwhelming at first as…read moreI wasn't familiar with where everything was and I wasn't really familiar with their line of products. Someone did help me, and recommended some stuff to me and encouraged me to smell some various scents. A lot of the scents were way too strong for me, but some people just love this stuff and I'm there for them and not so much for myself. Ended up choosing some lotions and hand washes per their recommendation, and they put things in separate gift bags. Yay! They also do a spray of stuff and provide samples, so the Aesop scents can linger for a while. When I was doing my shopping, someone came in to explore Aesop's shaving cream-like items. They let him sample it in full, which was pretty interesting and nice. Great service on the day I was here!

Service: Employees just looked annoyed with everyone in the store and wish they choose a non customer service job. Sad. Unprofessional.

A seasonal area too with both holiday inspired items and bright and clean signs locating each brand. Overall: Service a zero. A decent size store with many items, but expect 0 help when going here, where employees just roll there eyes and hope the time has passed to go home...

I called this store twice. The first time, I had a pleasant phone conversation with a man regarding…read morea hair toner he said was in stock, and the price was reasonable, so I went in the following day. However, when I arrived, there was a sign on the door indicating they would be back at a certain time, shown on a hand-drawn clock. I called the store, and a woman answered, explaining she had stepped out to pick up her children and would return in 20 minutes. I ended up leaving. I returned the following week and found the store unlocked. Inside, a woman was sitting behind the counter on the phone. When I asked about toner, she pointed me toward the section, which was extremely disorganized. The toners appeared old, inventory was scattered, there were large gaps on the shelves, and the specific toner I needed was not in stock. I decided to purchase eyelash glue instead. At the counter, I found my usual brand, but when I opened the box to check it, there was no safety seal. I asked if I could open another box to confirm whether it was sealed, and the employee became upset and told me not to open any others, insisting they were all brand new. However, the packaging on the box I examined was missing, while the one underneath it was sealed in plastic. When I asked if I could purchase a sealed one, she refused. At that point, I declined the purchase and left. I would not recommend this store due to poor organization, lack of cleanliness, limited stock, and cold customer service. I would definitely take my business elsewhere.

This is the worst store I've ever been in. Ever. all these five starred reviews are all fake. The…read morestore is a mess. boxes everywhere, old faded. Old retired products some expired. The shelves are empty. The customer service is a total witch. She booby trapps products. She makes you buy items by leaving things out and open and if you touch it, she make you buy it. Curlers, hairbrushes, hair clips. They put out samples and if you try the sample, they say you have to buy it and that's not a sample. The woman is lazy, watching TV and her store is a wreck with unopened shipping boxes. It looks like it's been through some kind of traumatic event. She's very rude. I will never go here again. It is 5 star on a list and it's not Yelp. (Gh3tt0) Insulting to the wonderful island girls. It appears she is living here too. She doesn't want customers, looking around and will jump down your throat if you shop around. She yelled at me as if I was bothering her in her home or something. I did notice a bed/couch in the back area.

First of all, they do not turn on the AC even on a hot day. I was sweating so much and was hoping…read moreto get some relief from the hot weather in the store. It felt so hot and stuffy and I wanted to get out of there ASAP. The store was not fully stocked and had empty shelves in the back half of the store so I was able to look through everything quickly. They had really good deals on some Asian hair products I typically buy online, so I was really excited to get some items regardless of how terrible it felt inside the store. I got a hair mask to try so I'm excited about that, but I also tried buying a hair oil I love that was listed on sale for $16.99. A really good price! However, when I went to the cash register, she rang it up as $22.99/23.99 which was original price. When I pointed it out she looked at the deal, took it off and was doing something on the computer, taking some time with the process. She then scanned it again and rang it up for the same price and repeated the total without acknowledging that the sale price didn't register. When I asked about it again, she said the promotion was over. I was really confused because I looked at the sign again and it did not have any information about how long the sale was until. And if it was over, why would they keep the sale sign up displayed? If I wasn't paying attention, I wouldn't have realized and purchased it. At that point, I was too hot and annoyed to question it and didn't want to drag it out further so I bought only the hair mask and took the hair oil off. I think it's quite predatory to have sale prices up and not honor those prices. She didn't even remove the sale price tag off after my purchase either. Although it seems like there's great deals for Asian hair care and skincare products, I don't think I would bother coming here again. There wasn't great customer service and they do not honor sale prices. If you're purchasing an item on sale, make sure to pay attention to how much it is when they ring it up in case you encounter the same issues.

I love this boutique, it fits right in with Livermore. They have the cutest clothes and jewelry…read more The items they have are unique and fun. The style is Vintage inspired, Bohemian with many of the items also having a Cowboy twist to them. It's just really fun to look at their clothes and costume jewelry, I have a hard time walking out empty handed. Now, it's not exactly cheap, many of their pieces are expensive, but having said that there are some items that aren't too bad price wise . Also they have a room in the back where all the items there are $25. They also have a rack in the front of the store with clothing on sale. So it is possible to get out of there without spending an arm and a leg. The quality of the clothing is good too. I was there last week and I bought some jewelry pieces I am happy with. I believe it was the owner that was there and another woman that's often there. They both are very nice. Today, July 20th, there was a nice lady there that I had not seen before, she was friendly and helpful. I can't believe I forgot her name. She let me know what it was when she set me up for a dressing room. But anyway , she was nice and helpful. Also, I think it is so cool that there is a salon in the boutique. I have never had a salon appointment there, but I think it's a neat concept having it in the boutique. To recap this is a nice boutique with most items having a vintage boho vibe with a cowboy twist. I have always been very girly, so this place appeals to me. But it's girly with an edge. I can't go to it too often because I will be tempted to buy something each time.

I had a poor experience, wasn't going to share but i read other reviews and I'm not the only one…read more The vibe was off and i should've listened to my intuition but i decided to shop around in case i found something i liked. I was greeted but felt like i was being watched. An employee asked me if i was looking for something specific so i told her, she recommended some other places & i felt that she was expecting me to leave. I went across the street to the place & they didn't have anything like it at all. I went back to get the street of the other place and also to confront how i felt about being sent to another place for no reason. I am very polite & know how to communicate. But when i asked if she recommend those other places because she didn't want me in the store, or if it's the color of my skin, she said she was offended. The conversation went left quickly, and i was asked to leave. I said wow this is the type of customer service im getting & asked for her name she said it was uptown girls lol. Before i left i shared that i came out because I almost died yesterday & wanted to get my mind off things, & not to be treated like i did. But of course me always having to be the bigger person, I apologized, said have a great day, & left quietly. Some other woman budded in the conversation & claimed she was a nice person but no tf she wasn't & didnt seem genuine either. The "helper helperton" didnt help me. Their stuff is way overpriced, you could get the same quality of clothing,better customer service, & more options across the street at Main St. Designs

Upon learning my scent profile, they helped me make bold but educated choices -- The one thing that I have come to terms with is that I love scents that work for me. I used to chase scents that were the "most popular" or "most attractive." However, our body oils change that profile a bit and the same scent does not smell the same on everyone. So although I do enjoy oud scents, not on me. So I told the workers there, "I like strong but subtle" and "I have some sweet scents in my armoire." Santal and Noir were previous purchase and the obvious choice would be something similar. However, a sweeter scent would also be obvious based off my collection at home (MFK 540 E, Carmina, etc.). The ladies here (on two different days) helped me decide on a scent (which I'll gate-keep) and I have loved it ever since. It smells amazing and I've received several compliments so far. Come here, be open to suggestions, and allow the scents to sit on your skin. I'd suggest coming here with no scented lotion or perfume on already and allow the oils to sink into your skin. Then maybe, you'll find out that the less "popular" scent works better for you than the Le Labo you smell on everyone else!
