Herbal Lotion Bar Review
Herbal Lotion Bar
 "So far, I adore this lotion bar, mostly for the gentle & soothing fragrance of sweet coconut and tangy lemon. The feel of the bar is soft and smooth, like soap but without oiliness or stickiness. It’s definitely the right product for anyone with cracked hands, heels, or areas that need intense moisturizing. When I first opened the gorgeous packaging and well-crafted & reusable tin, I wasn’t sure how I was going to use it! I had several other lotion products from Moon Valley that are easy to squeeze out of the tube and use." - Jen Yih

Product Review

Moon Valley Organics Product Review

 "Moon Valley Organics is such a cool company for so many reasons. They built a 4-acre herb garden and dedicated their entire companies mission to supporting and protecting pollinators. Think bees, hummingbirds, and butterflies! Their mission is to expand the pollinator habitat and work towards a pesticide-free future! I mean, how cool is that?! They also host a bunch of volunteers during each growing season to share hands-on learning with the next generation of organic farmers and grassroots activists. Again…HOW COOL IS THAT?! As if they couldn't get any cooler, they also donate 10% of their profits to protect pollinators through nonprofit organizations!" - Caleigh Michelle.
