Your unscented
hand & body lotion, along with your African
black soap shower gel, has completely changed
my life. I worked out a short while back, with
the help of your site, that I was allergic to
the emollients prescribed by my doctor. I ordered
your products and I've never looked back. Gone
is the misery of constant, crawling itching all
over my body and the nasty patches of eczema and
dermatitis that I just couldn't shift. My skin
feels and looks completely different, taken on
a texture I'd forgotten it ever had. Thank you
so very much for your expertise. But the reason
I'm mailing is to beg and plead with you to do
the unscented hand and body lotion in a bigger
size. My black soap lasts for ages, but I get
through the lotion so quickly. Please pretty please
make a bigger one! Thank you again for your amazing
stuff. You rock :) ... Luci,
Guildford
I have just about come to the end of the products
from my first order and I'm back for more, they
are fantastic! I have an under active thyroid
and the skin on my face has aged a lot. It's dry,
dull and lifeless-or I should say it was! Since
using your products my skin has improved so much
that I can now go out in public with only a smidge
of concealer - not a full face of make up. I am
so pleased. My favourite is the
face and eye roll on which I use twice daily
followed by the replenishing face cream. I cleanse
and tone twice a day using the organic hemp and
rose cleanser and the organic bulgarian rose toner.
They remove more dirt than the shop bought chemical
in a bottle. When my box of goodies arrived, promptly
and well packaged, I decided to throw out all
my lotions and potions which had cost me a small
fortune - it was the best thing I ever did. Thank
you Rossi for such wonderful products xxxx Justine,
Nottingham
I recently bought your sensitive
face cream, after having a tester pot first
( which is a great idea, as I find loads of creams
irritate my skin, and end up stored at the back
of a drawer!) I then bought the large size, it
is great I suffer from periorial dermatitis, and
this is the only cream I have found I can apply
to the flared up area. It moisturises all day,
and I can even mix some natural mineral foundation
powder with it to make a great foundation. I have
also bought your uncented
hand lotion, which is also very good...Julie,
Hampshire
Thank you very much for your prompt despatch
of my goods. The Sensitive
Unscented Face Cream is extremely soothing;
my face has stopped feeling sore & itchy;
my eyelids are no longer dry & flaky. The
cream feels very healing, cooling & absolutely
wonderful on my skin! The
Unscented Hand & Body Lotion is rich but
not greasy & the moisturising effect lasts
a long time. The cream glides on beautifully leaving
my skin feeling as smooth as velvet. I will give
your lip balm a try in a few weeks, along with
the unscented soap. I have tried other makes of
unscented products, but yours, in comparison,
seem to be much richer and full of goodness! Another
review:- I started the African
Black Unscented Liquid Soap this morning and
was immediately delighted with the results. It
left my skin feeling very soothed and calmed,
with no drying after effect. It instantly calmed
an inflamed and sore area of skin and many hours
later, it still feels calmed and settled. I'm
so grateful I found your website, and for the
very special products you make....Pam,
Pembrokeshire
The ORGANIC
CALENDULA & ALOE AFTER-SHAVE BALM is great
balm. For all you other men (and women) out there
considering this product I can only recommend
it. The balm is very rich and a little goes a
long way. It reduces any irritation very well.
For comparison, its much thicker than say Proraso
balm and takes just a while longer to be fully
absorbed. There is a very faint scent to it but
nothing that would interfere with a cologne (for
those that want to wear one). All in all I would
recommend it. Good value too, you need so little
of it the jar will last an age...Gareth,
Nuneaton
Without your products I don't know what I would
have done as total dismay had set in after trying
everything on the market, even products i really
could not afford. "Since becomming a lady
of a certain age" when everything changes
I found I have developed a little eczema along
with reactions to perfumed shower gels, also having
to purchase different products for personal hygiene
all of which did not help my problem, since finding
your black
african shower gel a couple of years ago i've
not looked back and the bonus is that it does
not cost the earth, thankyou Rossi and the team,
best wishes for the future...Margaret,
North Yorkshire
I just wanted to tell you how much I love your
tanning cream. It's the best I've ever used.
Not only do I get a golden color "overnight"....there's
no tanning lotion smell. I'm very fair skinned
and most products don't work at all for me....but
your's does and the color is very natural. Am
I "tan" - no - but it does give me a
beautiful golden glow and the color lasts a long
time. I'm very, very pleased...Jane, North Carolina,
US
Can I just say that for years I have had problems
with skin care products (I'm now 44) and I have
just about tried every facial cream on the market.
My skin has always felt dry and tight after every
application. Now though, with the combination
of the
Replenishing face cream and Rose and Shea
eye cream my skin is fantastic. Thank you...!!
I also love your shower gels, lotions and soaps...Jacqueline,
East Sussex
Up until now, I've been fed up trying to find
products that are free from the "nasties"
such as SLS, parabens etc. Since finding out about
such vicious chemicals, I certainly don't want
them on mine or my son's skin. He has occasional
flare ups of excema, so I don't want that to worsen.
I found your website and am SO glad I did! I tried
the wonderful ylang
ylang & orange shower gel and also a bar
of your marvellous
handmade soap for my elderly mother. Brilliant
products, and extremely well packaged products
and very speedy delivery! I have now placed another
order for the baby wash now, as that sounds marvellous.
So many other Companies (but not yours, thank
goodness!) seem to just "get on the bandwagon"
of selling so-called "natural" products,
but then when you read the list of ingredients,
you get a fright. Plus these other Companies seem
to think that customers will pay astronomical
prices for these products, which we can't all
afford to do. Thank you so much for your fantastic
products, brilliant service, and down-to-earth
prices. I can't recommend your Company enough
to anyone that will listen!...Cathrine,
Somerset
Just to say, how very impreseed i am with the
jojoba Shampoo & conditioner,
after blow drying my hair felt silkier & softer
than it has done in ages. I wasnt expecting a
result after just one wash! Love the natural scent
too! I am hoping after a few weeks the face oil
will gve pleasant results too...Janice, Plymouth
...I don't think I ever told you what I thought
about your wonderfully
bottom dream cream (if I have, sorry for repeating
myself). It is truly amazing. 14 months ago I
had my second baby and the poor thing had the
nastiest rash I had ever seen. The GP prescribed
castor oil and various other ointments to no avail.
It only took about 2 or 3 days for your bottom
dream cream to completely heal the rash. Truly
amazing...Marielle, London
I just thought I'd give you some feedback on
your virgin
coconut oil. I think I'm on my third or fourth
jar now. Previously no matter how much hard-earned
cash I spent on top brand name "skin care
products", I still had troubles with the
skin on my face....big bumpy spots, little spots,
red skin (sorry to be graphic!). People kept saying
its my diet, must be stress etc. etc. But almost
from the day I started using the virgin coconut
oil, I've hardly had a single tiny blemish and
my skin is even toned and really soft. Now, I
wouldnt put anything else on my skin. And your
service is second to none...Mandy,
London
Just wanted to say that your products are wonderful!
I just got the lip balm and lip gloss to try and
have fallen in love already. The lip balm has
made my really sore chapped lips smooth without
leaving any residue and
the lip gloss! Wow. I rarely use lipgloss
because I cant stand the thick gooey feeling they
leave. This one feels fantastic and is moisturizing
too. The colour is lovely (though its taking me
a while to get used to seeing any colour on my
lips I have avoided gloss so long!) PLEASE please
produce some more colours for us to choose from!!!
:) ...Amy, Cornwall
i'm just writing to say thank you for creating
such amazing products. i suffer from acne outbreaks
now and again, but when they happen they're bad
and leave my skin scarred and horrible. ive been
using your balancing face cream for probably only
a week and my skin has improved so much i cant
believe it! my skin hasnt looked this smooth and
clear in about two years. :) i love your conditioner
too, its amazing and my curly hair loves it. i
really hope you never stop making these products
because they're incredible. thank you so much...
Charlotte, North Yorkshire
hi, love all your products, the oily hair shampoo
is fab, and the conditioner is supper! my hubby
liked the
lip balm so much, he said it smelt like chocolate
orange and if i didnt hide it he might eat it.
lol ..every thing was so well packed too , so
thanks again . love xxxxxxxxx ...Lisa,
Surrey
I just want to say I absolutely love your
Care Jelly. My 2 year old daughter has sufferered
with eczema since birth, and although she was
prescribed creams by the doctor I wanted to try
something natural. The Care Jelly started working
striaght away and cleared up the dry itchy patches
on her belly and the back of her legs within a
couple of days. I also use it on her bum when
she gets nappy rash (usually only when she's cutting
teeth), and recently with all the cold weather
we've had I've used it on her cheeks and nose
which are exposed to the elements when we're out
and about. I also use it on my hands when they
get dry and cracked, and it works a treat. It
really is a great all-rounder and have just put
in an order for another pot. After reading some
of the other testimonials I may have to try some
of the other skin care products as well, so expect
another order shortly! Thanks again for these
wonderful products! :)..Lindsay,
North Yorkshire
I'm a new customer, and a complete convert: my
toddler and I adore your conditioner,
the only stuff able to tame our curls. I've got
the full range in my basket, having started with
the shampoo, conditioner and baby wash. Thanks,
and all the best, you should be very proud of
yourselves :)...Alice,
London
Handmade Naturals you are lifesavers! I tried
the trial size Balancing Face Cream and will be
purchasing the normal sized one. I also recently
purchased the Moisturising
Face Wash whcih is excellent. No tightness,
noleft over makeup just brilliant. I am of afro-caribbean
heritage and find my skin dries out very quickly,
especially in winter and after years of using
Body Shop stuff I never really got the results
I wanted. I came across your site and you have
got a customer for life. I love the fact that
evertything is natural and there is no mineral
oil and synthetic preservatives in your products.
Thanks again...Chan, London
I had a mini home spa night tonight, i used Handmade
Naturals LAVENDER & GERANIUM in my bath for
bubbles. While soaking i used the SEAWEED PEEL
OFF FACE MASK. Then i finished my lovely evening
with GERANIUM, ROSE & CHAMOMILE FACE TONER
then REPLENISHING FACE CREAM. My skin feels firm,
toned and very healthy! Your products are the
best for natural skin care that i've ever tried.
Thank you!...Anna, Norwich
I love love love your Organic
Olive, Shea, Aloe and Jojoba Conditioner.
I have relaxed/chemically treated hair that tends
to be dry and this product gave me luscious, silky
soft hair. Now that its getting colder, I've started
using it as a leave-in moisturiser. I just dab
a little bit on my ends for all-day hydration.
Will definitely be ordering more...Emz,
London
Just wanted to say got the
lipgloss on time for my night out and fell
in love with it instantly. Such a lovely colour
and texture. As a rule I don't wear lipstick or
lipgloss because they feel too sticky and I just
end up rubbing them off!! Not so with your lovely
lipgloss. Felt silky and soft and nurturing and
the tint just enhanced my lips in the right way.
I was a bit skeptical about buying a lipgloss
without testing the colour first but I couldn't
have asked for a better shade. I have a pale complexion
and dark brown/chesnut hair and the colour looks
dead natural on me. I love it...Eloise,
Aberdeenshire
Hey Rossi, just dropping by to say big thanks
for all your lovely products. The seaweed
facemask is amazing, and your toner just smells
so beautiful everytime i use it. Oh, and the
hand lotion is fab, all the tight, dry, itching
from my hands changed from the first use - hard
to believe but true! Thank-you! ....Becky,
Halkirk
Just a quick question - how long does the
lip gloss last? I have had it for ages and
wondered if it has a best before date. Still have
lots left even tho' it's so gorgeous I use it
several times a day. is it a magic container that
keeps refilling? Love Cathy
I love all the products I ordered! After using
the shampoo and conditioner my scalp isn't itchy
anymore. The hair
and scalp oil is great too. Even my hairdresser
commented on how soft my hair was! The
frangipani and grapefruit shower gel smells
gorgeous. I will certainly be ordering more products
in the future. Thanks Rossi ...Clare,
Shropshire
I recently tried your hair products and the results
are astounding. I use your shampoo in the shower,
then towel dry it and then use a little of the
Jojoba
conditioner and just leave it in. It has changed
the condition and manageability of my hair completely.
When I just rinse my hair through and don't wash
it, I just leave it damp and then leave in some
of the hair
and scalp oil until it dries. My girlfriend
can't stop smelling my hair, she loves it and
the girl who cuts it says it's in the best condition
she's ever seen it! I think if everyone knew how
hazardous SLS and the rest are to your health,
there would be an international ban on nearly
all cosmetic products except yours. Thank you
for creating them. Paul,
Leeds
I just wanted to say thank you for despatching
my 1st order so promptly, despite me only ordering
the day before you went on holiday. I had terrible
dermatitis on my face and was desperate to find
a truly natural product that wouldn't make it
worse. I am now using the African
Black soap and the Petitgrain
& Myrtle facewash. I also love the shampoo.
One thing that hasn't worked for me though is
the conditioner - I have rinsed it really well
but have found it to leave a residue. However
I've just put in my 2nd order for shampoo and
to try some other products and have recommended
your products to my friends - thank you, they
are fantastic and affordable. Yvonne,
Wakefield
I wanted to express my great satisfaction at
your service. Not only you deliver beautiful products
in a record time at a price that would make all
competition blush in shame, but you replied to
my query so quickly,with very good advice and
in a very friendly and honest manner. You just
simply cannot find this anywhere else, especially
over the internet, but you know how to retain
the "human factor". I really wish you
all the best in your activity and I'm sure your
business will continue to grow healthily, just
make sure you never lose that very special customer
relationship !!! I wish you a very good holiday
with your family and you'll find for sure another
order from me waiting at your return !! I've been
raving about your stuff to my mum when I was home
in France last week, so I'll be sending her stuff
over for her to try !Millions of thank you again
from a very happy customer! Virginie,
West Dunbartonshire
Hi Rossi, I wannted to say a big thank you to
you personally for fulfilling my orders so quickly
and to tell you that I have found the products
excellent especially the foaming
face wash with the manuka honey and
the herbal shampoo and conditioner which have
made my hair so soft and feeling fresh! I have
already placed two orders and cannot wait to try
them all!hope you go from strength to strength-thank-you!!!
...Nina, Aylesbury
I really just wanted to say keep up the great
work on developing your fab range of products!
I discovered you whilst looking for sulphate free
shower gels/shampoos, and I find that I have to
be quite self-controlled not to go nuts and buy
up half the site... The
hemp oil cleanser is great - really removes
the London grime! The shower gels are wonderful,
esp the
rosemary and geranium shower gel. I'm on the
second lot of shampoo, and have just placed an
order for 3 more lots of shower gel. Marvellous
stuff - thank you!! (Oh yes, and I'm buying the
large bottle of the hand/body lotion, it works
a treat :-)...Charlotte,
London
Thank you for the quick arrival of the products.
I don't ever leave feedback for products, but
felt that i had to get in touch to say thank you!
I suffer from psoriasis on my hands,knees, elbows
and scalp and have been searching for a suitable
alternatives to petrol based products for the
last five years. I have tried most brands at all
price points and i had settled on Aubreys as the
one that seemed to suit me best. There were a
couple of things that made me start to look around
again - one was the monthly remortgage i had to
take out to buy the families products and two
i was becoming increasingly aware of the miles
that Aubreys had to travel to get to my door.
I have given the psoriasis
shampoo and olive
& jojoba conditioner a couple of weeks
and i can say i am impressed - my hair is quite
dry and definately needs the conditioner, but
i only need a small ammount. Thank you once again...
Catherine, West Yorkshire
Just had through my second batch of your products!
I have a rather erratic skin type, so I'm trying
slightly different combination of cleanser/toner
to last time. But I just wanted to say how much
I like the products generally; their texture is
great, not too over-scented and good to know I'm
not putting anything nasty on my skin. I'll keep
you posted on my search for the 'perfect' cleanse/tone
combo, but meanwhile just wanted to say thank
you for the great service and keep up the good
work!! :-)...Charlotte,
London
Just to say thank you, turned up this morning!
Can't believe how quick you are!! Thanks so much:-)
I love your products by the way, I feel so much
happier not putting nasty chemicals into my bloodstream,
and am very impressed with the trial size care
jelly, first time using it and it's lovely and
soft and light! I'm 31 and have adult acne, comodonal
acne vulgaris rather than the pustular type and
have literally tried everything on the market.
I haven't noticed an improvement in my acne since
using your products but it's genetics and there's
not much you can do about that! But it certainly
doesn't make my skin any worse, and to be honest
i'd rather put natural things on my skin than
a whole load of hydrocarbons! I found the balancing
moisturiser a little rich for my skin, but after
reading your website about how you yourself use
the men's
aftershave balm I gave that a go, and it's
much lighter and better for my acne! I wouldn't
have thought to try that so it was very helpful
to read what you use. So thank you! I have recommended
your products to lots of family and friends already.
So reasonably priced and all smell wonderful....Vicky,
Hampshire
I have been trying the Herbal SLS Free shampoo
now for nearly one month and a half and truly
I am in hair heaven. For years my hair has felt
lifeless, flat and heavy and from the very first
washing my hair started to feel different. Although
you do not get much of a lather from this shampoo,
it really cleans the hair and when you rinse there
seems to be no residue left on the hair unlike
other shampoos I have tried. It has been a truly
wonderful find and I have sent a bottle to my
mother who has also now become a fan. I feel now
that my hair is being looked after and using the
hair and scalp oil every so often as Rossi suggested
really leaves my hair in wonderful condition.
My husband almost every day makes a comment on
how much thicker my hair looks. Ah back to hair
heaven...Karen, France
I just wanted to put in a comment about the delicious
after-shave
balm for men. For years I have suffered from
sensitive skin all the way through to rosacea
and been prescribed all types of creams by the
dermatologists . I thought I would test this cream
for a month and see how it goes as I have become
so skeptical about creams over the years but,
this cream is by far the best cream I have put
on my face, extremely mild and delicate. I originally
bought it for my husband and he has to continually
take it back from my shelf to his. I will definitely
be buying more, one each. Thanks Rossi.. .Karen,
France
I just wanted to let you know that I am seriously
impressed with what you are selling. Since coming
to France about 8 years ago I have suffered with
Rosacea on my face and blepharitis in my eyes.
Recently some treatment from the dermatologists
has helped with my rosacea but not the blepharitis.
I think if I had discovered your site years ago
I could have been helped much earlier. I tried
the shea
butter which is ABSOLUTELY DIVINE and your
favourite balancing face cream is wonderful but
I love everything I purchased. Since discovering
your site, I am in it almost every day and I have
completely emptied my bathroom of all the terrible
high street products and I am proud to put your
products on my shelf. I can't thank you enough
for developing such wonderful products and will
be recommending you to everyone I know, especially
fellow rosacea sufferers....Every since I have
discovered your products Rossi I feel as if my
bathroom has turned in to a spa. I jokingly say
to my husband now, hey honey I am off for a shower
into the amazon rainforest. That is how natural
your products feel. I have bought so many over
the last little while but my favourites are the
rose
& shea eye cream, rose,
chamomile & geranium face toner, after-shave
balm, rose
hemp & jojoba facial cleanser, lip
gloss, organic
coconut oil, herbal
SLS free shampoo, to name but a few. I am
very delighted with all my products even some
not mentioned above including the amazing fennel
& propolis toothpaste. What a lucky day it
was the day I discovered your site. Its so good
when you get real quality and results when you
purchase products and feel that your money and
time has not been wasted....
Karen, France
Just wanted to say a big thank you for sending
my order so quickly. I ordered on Monday and it
all came yesterday (Tuesday). My 18 year old son
was so impressed with the Antibacterial
Facewash that he wanted to try my new shampoo
and conditioner! The facewash didn't make his
face feel sore and dry like so many of the commercial
ones do and the shampoo and conditioner haven't
affected my eczema on the nape of my neck at all
and I have tried just about every so called 'natural'
one around!... Terry Ann,
Cornwall
Just a quick message to say how fab your products
are.I recently went back and bought some Body
Shop products after receiving a voucher - BIG
MISTAKE!! My skin is now very unhappy . . . and
spotty! After using a cleanser from Body Shop
for just 2 weeks I'm having to come back to you
for some ROSE,
HEMP & JOJOBA FACIAL CLEANSER. I also
use the
Balancing Face Cream and the natural toners.
My skin has always been either really dry or really
greasy, but after using your products my skin
never feels too dry or oily - just 'normal'. Thanks
Rossi for all of the hard work and research it
must take to produce such a wide range of such
lovely products! ...Hannah,
Staines
Both my sister and I have struggled with sensitive
skin and allergies and over the last year perioral
dermatitis for which we have been prescribed steroid
creams (the worst thing for this condition!) and
antibiotics by our GP's. Turns out all this was
solved by banishing SLS's and other harsh irritating
detergents from our daily routines. Thank god
we finally found your company, we are both total
converts and have just placed a second order after
trying, and falling in love with your shower
gels (peppermint & aloe), the
facewash (African black soap). I have to say
i was particularly impressed with the shampoo's
..my hair is not only really clean, but super
soft and shiny too. I have to admit i was skeptical
that these natural products wouldn't work as well
as the well known chemical brands, but actually,
they are far better. Not only has my dermatitis
cleared up but my skin looks and feels better
than it ever has..... Thankyou!!...Claire,
London
I used to use Molton Brown, L'occiatane, Philosophy
etc and then eventually found my way to GreenPeople.
It wasn't until I realised how great natural skincare
was for my super oily skin that I then eventually
found Handmade Naturals. Everything I have tried
is actually better than the more expensive face
creams, shower gels, shampoos etc. What a wonderful
service that you offer. The price point is so
so low. I cannot express how fantastic your products
are. Ps - for oily skin take Vitamin A supplements
and B5 ... and
the antibacterial facewash. A great combo...Martyn,
London
I came across your site via imperfectlynatural.com
- and so glad I did too! I ordered trial sizes
of your vasaline replacement and balancing face
cream, and a full size bottle of your Myrtle
and black African soap foaming facial wash
AND a bottle of olive
and jojoba conditioner. What can I say except
WOW! My skin has been sensitive and prone to break-outs
for years. I was noticing dryness and flakiness,
but 'heavier' creams gave me spots. Anyway, the
balancing
cream is a miracle and am on to a full sized
pot now. The face wash is wonderful and my hair
is smooth and glossy. I can't recommend your products
more highly - high performance, VERY reasonble
price and all natural. I'm looking forward to
trying the eye cream next! Thanks from a happy
and satisfied customer! ... Dotty,
Beckington
What a godsend your products are proving to be!
I wanted to let you know how I'm getting on with
them, so here goes...Your natural
foaming face wash does a fantastic job of
cleansing my sensitive combination skin. It has
a lovely fresh fragrance and a wonderful soft,
moussy texture. My skin feels fresh and clean
after using it, not tight and uncomfortable at
all....Your balancing
face cream is a clear winner! Not only does
it have a lovely aroma and texture, but it has
managed to calm down my sensitive combination
skin - such a relief after my nightmares with
so many other so called "natural" moisturisers!
This cream is a blessing in a jar!!...I love your
anti-oxidant
face and eye oil! It's such a great idea to
have it in a roll-on dispenser because it means
you can use just the right amount around the eyes.
A lot of the eye creams I've used in the past
have reacted with the skin around my eyes, but
yours has done just the opposite! The puffiness
and dark circles have gone - my eyes look clearer
and brighter than they have done for months. THANK
YOU! ...Sally, Poole
The antibacterial
aloe, lemon and manuka facewash is really
transforming my spotty skin (in conjunction with
moisturising using 100% jojoba oil); it is so
unbelievably gentle it does not irritate my sensitive
skin in the slightest. My face always feels refreshed
- also the
facial loofah is gentle yet effective in exfoliating
and renewing the surface of my skin Thank you
...Cherish, London
I love your
lemongrass & lavender hand and body lotion.
My hands are prone to severe eczema and are constantly
dry. Applying rich creams is not always practical,
but the lemongrass & lavender lotion absorbs
instantly and smells divine. I can even apply
it and immediately do my ironing, without any
greasy transfer. It really is a 'hands on' lotion...Andrea,
Lincs
I am wondering if I can order a 120ml pot of
the replenishing
face cream. It has helped clear the eczema
on my face a treat! I am also impressed with your
ordering service. Everything always arrives 2
days after ordering even just before xmas. Keep
up the good work!...Janet,
Dorset
Love the
antibacterial handwash, and the difference
in the condition of my hands since I started using
it is plainly beyond belief. My hands used to
crack and bleed and no amounts of creams would
help to keep them feeling and looking reasonable,
at atleast. Its smell is fresh, a hint of lavender,
a bit of orange and some manuka, just as the label
says. I've just ordered another 4 for all the
bathrooms/toilets in our house and I am binning
all the Carex soaps I've been wasting cash on
for the past god knows how many years. Keep up
the good work :-) ...Kate,
Northumberland
