Stocking Stuffers 2018

This serum smells amazing. It is hydrating, brighthen and tightens my pores. In the summer i use it with coconut serum, it might feel a bit oily but surprisingly, it does well in summer heat. In the summer, coconut serum and sake a rice is all i need. With sake and rice, you don't have to worry about piling under sun screen. I also use it in the winter, with more serums. It is a staple in my SB collection.

This is my go-to summer cleanser. Light, effective, non-drying, yet works to get the grime and sweat off!

This bottle has truly changed the way I start my day. Every time I drink from it, I feel calm, centered and ready to start my day. If you're looking to reconnect with yourself, this is the product for you and totally worth it.

Not only does the scrub have the most delicious smell, it makes my skin feel great after I use it. I've used it both as a mask (and left it on for about ten or so minutes) and then just as a scrub in the shower. Both times I enjoyed the exfoliation and the silkiness that it left my skin feeling. I can't wait to order the regular size. I started with the travel size just to test it out and fell in love. Highly recommend.

The bottle is beautiful, and the difference in your water is amazing! I have to admit, I was skeptical at first. But you really CAN taste a difference between water charged in this bottle, and water from a regular bottle. Not only does it taste different, but it makes you feel different as well- more calm, peaceful and grounded. It's like brewing yourself a magic potion! I also have to mention the infuser that comes with the bottle, because I absolutely love it. I use it in this bottle if I want to make flavored water/cold tea, but I also now use it to replace my regular infusers that I've used for making hot tea in the past. I highly recommend this water bottle!

This is usually just a holiday/winter product, but there are a few jars left. So why am I writing this review, since I NEED MORE and you might now go buy them all? I am because I have come to love this product. Yes, it is pricey and I am a cheap-ass generally. I never thought I would spend anything on skincare. However, starting with Sabbatical Beauty 4 years ago, I have learned so much. I have dry skin. I am 53. I find that this cream as the last step of my daily routine has become a way to show love for myself and my skin. The flecks of gold are REAL y'all. I feel all sparkly. It is a soft, luxurious cream that smells delightful. I agonized about getting a full size jar, but it lasted forever and now they are gone! I am hording travel sizes until I can buy a full size again this coming fall/winter/holiday time. It's gorgeousness for you in a jar.

I bought this to give myself a lovely way to hand sanitize, and it was money well spent! Smells lovely and feels really good on my skin.

My skin has had an oily sheen and large, clogged pores for as long as I can remember. I thought people with smooth skin and invisible pores used photoshop or loads of makeup- it had to be artifice. Since using this serum, I have literally watched my pores shrink. I have areas on my nose and cheeks where pores are no longer visible, and the others are continuing to get smaller. In addition, my skin is matte and smooth. This product has had the most immediate, significant, visible difference on my skin. My skin is very sensitive, but this product has been gentle despite being super powerful.

I have this and I absolutely love it. One good thing to know, it fits comfortably in my little hand. (Only 5" from wrist to the tip of my middle finger) The tall thin shape allows me to grip with confidence. I have the rose gold one it's beautiful and perfect, just like everything else SB does.

I like this product because it's super lightweight, and it feels super refreshing.

I use this set twice a day with the rose quartz roller and I can absolutely see a difference; but more importantly I can feel the difference and it's amazing.

My daughter and I absolutely love the bethany mask! It's the best for bringing out impurities without any harsh removal, and the less harsh the better!

I got the rose gold Self Care bottle because it is so pretty to look at, and I need constant reminders to drink water because I really do not like to drink water. I thought this will do the trick to make me reach for the bottle to hydrate. So I let the water sit overnight by the window and when I had my first sip, I was sold. My tap water do not taste like expensive bottled water (hence no surprises I don't like water eh?) but the charged crystal water tasted mildly sweeter, and more 'rounded' on my tongue. I would say my tap water tastes like a tart and dry wine, while the crystal water tastes like a fine, rounded wine without the hint of dryness and tartness? I am so impressed, I immediately ordered the Grounded Boss bottle. And guess what? I prefer the Grounded Boss to the Self Care! It tasted even better to me and I have feedback from friends that I sound more grounded and aware of my own needs since having the bottle (I am known to give in to unreasonable demands at home and end up having a hard time coping with my own emotional and physical well-being). In short, they see me taking better care of myself. These days, sipping from the bottles soothes me both visually (I mean, aren't they pretty??) and emotionally. Oh, and did I mention that now that I am drinking water regularly, my lips peel less and my skin is also looking better from the hydration it should have gotten all along?

Love love love love! I don’t know if the bottle is my favorite part, the beautiful dried botanicals, the smell of the Ylang Yland and Lemon Balm Leaf, or the fact it leaves my hands feeling clean AND soft. They’re all my favorite part! Would highly recommend!

My favorite part of my day is cleansing with my beauty water! The scent is AMAZING and the cleanse leaves you feeling so refreshed. Definitely a staple in my routine.

I spoiled myself and bought the travel size Chang E’s Silver Moon Pearl Serum. I thought I’d only use it on special occasions, but Ive found myself using it almost every day. It’s so beautiful and makes me feel so beautiful!! Not to mention it makes my skin sooo soft. Will be buying a full size ASAP!

I bought both Crystal Elixir Bottles because I wanted to drink the water from both bottles (letting one get cold in the fridge while I drank from the other one). There's a tea infuser insert as well as a separate area for the crystals so they don't get wet. The Self Care water tastes lightly sweet while the Grounded Boss water is spicier and/or earthier. Definitely recommend these bottles! The design of these bottles are really nice with the SB name + logo visible not overpowering. Get at least one of these!!

I LOVE this water bottle. It’s gorgeous, it holds plenty of water, and I love crystal water so much!! I would say my experience with the grounding set is that it makes the water taste more earthy? Definitely what you would expect from grounding crystals. I also always feel like water is more satisfying to drink when it’s been crystal infused. It’s very hard to explain but it’s wonderful! Definitely recommend! I also love that you can take the stones out and switch them

The SBees did an amazing job packaging this in a way that even though UPS seemed to have played soccer with the box, it came to me in perfect condition!!
As far as taste, there isn't a flavor that can describe this more of a sensation. It seemed to be... silkier, crisper. When chilled I could feel icy shivers. Seemed to be relaxing and relieved some stress in the moment! Love it, still doing "research" to identify taste differences!

This product (like every other SB product I’ve tried!!) is magical! It has brightened and soothed my overall complexion and I see overnight improvement when used as a spot treat for acne or irritation.

I made the switch to the eye gel-oil from using other products because I wanted to try something with more moisture. It took a handful of tries to figure out the perfect amount to use—and that less is more!

This serum feels so good on the skin - light, fresh but still nourishing.

This is one of my favorite products in my routine. I love the cooling effect that it has, which is perfect for after your other products.

This is an all encompassing review, because I’ve tried just about all of the products for my skin type.

What I suggest is taking your time to read all of the descriptions that fit your skin type, and find the ones that suit your needs. I ordered travel sizes in the things I thought I may want, and slowly put together what is now my perfect routine.

Fortunately, this was something I was able to do during the quarantine, and it quickly became a bright spot in my day. I even set up my vanity area in a pleasant way to be able to appreciate this time with myself more.

I have very dry skin with anti-aging concerns (I’m almost 41). For my particular routine, I absolutely love the Goat Milk & Rice face wash, the Botanical toner, the Gaia serum, and the Lavender Snow moisturizer. For extra moisture, you cannot go wrong with the Ekaterina Luxury Cream.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you if you become addicted!

This feels silky and goes on very smoothly. I like the smell and how quickly it absorbs into dry areas. My skin is sensitive to many moisturizers, but the purity of ingredients in Donkey Cream works wonderfully for hydrating.

For me, this is a perfect moisturizer! I love how it feels and smells when I put it on at night. My skin is definitely softer and smoother when I wake. It's so exciting to have something that makes such a tangible difference.

I started using vacuum during the skin-drying winter months and loved it immediately. Not only did my skin look and feel truly clean, but it was softer and more hydrated too. I follow it up with sake & rice sleeping pack, which I also love, and my skin feels softer and smoother than it has in a decade for sure.

I got a travel size of this as part of the Philly Self-care Box a few weeks ago. I finally tried it last week after a long walk on a sunny morning as the last step in my routine. My face felt soft, nourished, and happy. Today I burned my hand baking bread so I decided to use a little of this to help cool and soothe the burn. It helped more than I thought it would! I love the texture of this balm and how my skin drinks it in. This is a keeper!

This serum seems to be very effective in reducing the fine lines that I have on my forehead. Love it.

The actual product is as amazing as the description. I ordered the travel size and am leveling up to the full size. This cream feels and smells amazing. I swear, it has been lulling me to sleep at night. I've been very stressed and anxious lately and this cream helps. My face feels so smooth after applying the cream.

I've been using the amethyst roller for a few weeks now and it's divine. The process is so relaxing and the roller is very well made. I did some research on other name brand rollers before I purchased this one and I ultimately bought here because I wanted to shop local. The quality of this roller is amazing and I'm very glad I got it.

Ya know how your face instantly looks better on the most basic snapchat filter? That's what this stuff does for my face IRL. I can instantly see an improvement in my skin color when I put this on. I bought the travel size a few weeks ago and am adding the full size to my cart right now. This is some magic wonder potion and I love it.

I don't really wear makeup often, but I did the other day (not this picture). Let me tell you, I hated it. I don't know why I even put it on. As someone who has constantly struggled with acne (even at 30 🙄), the Tea Tree & Volcanic Ash is pretty amazing. Since using SB, I haven't had many breakouts 🙌🏼🙌🏼
Occasionally I'll get one or two though. I use this as a spot treatment instead of allover, and within a couple days it's pretty much falling off. Definitely would recommend.
