I've taken this Class each time it has been offered ... so much so Lynn tells everyone that I'm not an "inside plant." For the Class provided on December 30, 2020 (my Bday), I treated my three daughters and my only daughter-in-law to this special event. They each were so grateful to learn how to give themselves a personal, loving facial. I look forward to COVID not giving me anxiety so that I can make a special trip to see Lynn personally. In the interim, this is a wonderful alternative. I'm so grateful to Adeline and her Team and Lynn and her Team for providing this wonderful online opportunity during such a stressful, anxiety-ridden time. Hugs!
I has a wonderful time and it was such a nice treat to be able to do something for myself. I have already incorporated the practice into my weekly routine, Lynne is a great teacher and provided instant feedback to us all. It was so relaxing and there was such good energy. I cant wait to make an appointment with Lynne in person.
Tl;dr: best $39 i have spent in a long time - so good i did the workshop twice!!
So, I did not know exactly what to expect when I signed up for this workshop. I only chose to do it because I love massage, and the coronavirus has really made it impossible for me to be able to treat myself in the ways I usually do. However I had no idea how lovely the workshop would be! Not only was it a full hour and a half of a deep, meditative, relaxing ritual-I came away with concrete skills to help drain lamp for my body and more importantly, A WHOLE NEW FACE!! My face literally changed shape by the end of the workshop-the rounded edges near my jaw line became heart shaped, my traditionally puffy eyes were smooth, and even my cheekbones looked way more defined. This is with no special products or chemicals, just the specific massage routine Lynn teaches. I now do the gua sha routine at home, and the results in terms of skin texture, clarity & shape are amazing.
I really appreciated the chance to learn from Lynn about how to use my gua-sha tool. I didn't even know how to say it, let alone use it! Lynn was really kind, slow, but also very knowledgeable about how to use this tool. Even two (or so? Pandemic!) days after the event, I have used it and thought about how it works. She took us through how to do a whole routine. There is so much to know about this, but Lynn was able to simplify it, without making it simplistic. I came out of the 1.5 hour workshop with more knowledge and sense that I could do this for myself. I urge you to get on this workshop train the next time there is a stop available!
Lynn is such a lovely, calm, and knowledgable teacher. I learned so much and am so excited to see long term effects that I experienced during the workshop. I told my husband about it and now he wants to learn how to do it!
Why Our Customers Love Us
from 1811 reviewsThis is probably my favorite serum. I use other SB serums(luv them too) but this is the one I use everyday. My skin soaks it right up, leaves my skin toned, pores seem less noticeable and has really helped with discoloration. I recently ordered my second full size. As you can see in pic it's almost gone and I cant imagine being without it!

I wish I could say I loved this but I don't. I like what it does for my skin, really helps keep mask acne away. I just cant get past the smell. I hate the smell and taste of vinegar so I should of considerd that before I purchased. It definitely does what its supposed to and it gives you a nice clean feel, its just not for me. I think I'll try the maple next time.

Marine serum and Dorian Gray serum were the first Sabbatical Beauty products I tried, and I will keep using them. Why tamper with success.

My skin loves Dorian Gray serum (layered over Marine serum), followed by Camelia gold oil. At the end of my routine (after eye oil, a cream, then a light oil, I do a brief gua sha massage. Honestly, my lines really appear diminished, especially the 11 between my eyebrows. I’m not a heavy scent person, but the camelia oil scent us not bothersome. The gold flecks are luxurious.

With months of Covid uncertainty, a child who does not sleep, and book manuscript overdue, my skin was dry, rough, red and sore. I felt like I'd aged DECADES in a year. I ordered this set, not too hopeful, but the results have been amazing. Suddenly (really, I could see an immediate difference, as could my very unobservant husband) somehow my skin is brighter, hormonal acne GONE, and my cheeks plump and pink. I loved every single product and have now ordered them all in the full size. It's pricey, yes, but you only need the tiniest little bit. I am hooked.

I received this cleanser as part of the dry-skin kit and am in love. In fact, I am back today to buy the full-size (although the small travel size lasted ages - you don't need much). My skin was so tired and grey, dry and bumpy, with sensitivity, a little hormonal acne too. Somehow, this gentle cleanser also soothes my skin, as well as leaving it moist and far more radiant. I wish I had taken before and after photographs, because this made a big difference from the very first day. Less redness, pimples and bumps gone, and lines softened. It's LOVE.

My skin suffered when this was temporarily unavailable during early lockdown! Fortunately we beat back the damage when it came back in stock. There's nothing like it for retaining moisture and coping with signs of aging.

I love the smell of this sleeping cream and also the thick, luxurious feel. Leaves me skin feeling smooth and hydrated.

For the last month I've been trying different serum samples (Marine, Snail, Hydra, this one) and none make my skin look and feel like APH. My skin instanly calms down and I have no redness, puffiness or overproduction of oil. I think I found a winnner. I love this so much I'd bathe in it if I could.

This is another Class that I've taken every time it's available. Amber is simply wonderful! I love learning about my Capricorn-self outside of what I that all that meant! I look forward to her upcoming Classes ... super excited ... and am needing to seriously set aside time to Journal using her worksheets from the Class. I adore her knowledge! Hugs!

This is the cream I used up first. Once I felt it on my skin, I was all about the blue wave. As someone new to SB, I purchased a bunch of samples and the Revive kit. This cream is a definite keeper.

This serum, along with Marine, are my new go-tos. A little goes a long way. The travel size lasted for weeks. My next purchase will be a full-size vial.

This set was my first SB purchase. I immediately fell in love with the Marine Serum, and purchased a full-size after the first week. I wake up in the morning looking rested. Using Marine with Dorian Grey’s serum, my dark circles have diminished, as well as the hard-earned 11s between my eyebrows.

This eye oil is amazing - just what I’d been seeking. The skin around my eyes feels plump, with diminished fine lines. I will buy a full-size of this oil.
