Angel Face
By Tonie Silver
Angel Face Botanicals is a real find. Plenty of good stuff to satisfy any
bathoholic. This range is aptly named~ owner Jessica Ress makes her products
with bunches of love, and it really shines through.
The Lavender Shower Steamer is an innovative idea~ think of it as a really long
lasting, strong bath bomb. Pop it into the shower with you and let it release its
essential oils while you scrub.
Angel Face excels at powdered facial cleansers. Jessica makes three different
Organic Facial Cleansing Grains: Ambrosia, Ayurvedic, and Adzuki & Green Tea,
and they’re all just perfect. They all start with basically the same base of kaolin
clay, oats, and rice, and then Jessica adds different bits and bobs. Ambrosia
boasts the addition of whole milk, banana, and apple. Ayurvedic has rhassoul,
sandalwood, frankincense, and myrrh. Just the right amount of scrubbiness. I
couldn’t decide which of these I liked best~ they’re all so good! The biggest
difference that I can detect between the three is that the Ayurvedic leaves the
skin a tad bit whiter. All three come highly recommended.
Jessica’s scrubs are scrubby, yet really mild. It feels like she uses a really fine
grained, polished salt in them. In spite of the blend of essential oils (grapefruit,
rose geranium, juniper, lavender, fennel etc.), the Rock Star Detox Scrub smells
kind of purple-y to me, sort of a grape Kool-Ade kind of smell. This fragrance
really chills you out. Like lavender? You’ll love Angel Face’s Double Love Scrub,
a blend of four different lavender oils, berries, and calendula. Delightfully angel
pink.
You’re in a Secret Garden, dripping with roses, ylang ylang, rose geranium,
oranges, patchouli, and jasmine. Inhale the hypnotic scent. Now open your
eyes. Surprise! You’ve been soaking in Angel Face’s Blush Aphrodisiac Bathing
Salts. I’m digging this scent muchly.
Satisfy your craving for a Renaissance bath with Angel Face’s Rose Milk Herbal
Wash~ a little wash bag chock full of herbs, oats, and flowers. Smells delish with
rose geranium essential oil. Soak, squeeze, and scrub with this~ I enjoyed
peering at all the colored bits during my bath. No mess either~ clever.
The name says it all: Lovely Lavender & Vanilla Fizzing Milk Bath. All the
moisturizing benefits of a milk bath, plus some fizz action! Smells just like its
name: lovely. Very soothing, comforting, and relaxing.
Butter, butter, who’s got the butter? Angel Face, that’s who! Jessica mixes up a
dizzying array of body butters, some of which she mixes sparkly mica into~ yay!
Multi purpose moisture here. Rose Garden is so light, delicate, and angel pink.
Sweet Lavender is Provence in a jar. Opalescent mica makes it all the more
special. Ya want tropical? Angel Face has got’cha covered with Flora Exotica~ a
heady, creamy mix with ylang & Monoi~ scrummy!:)
Lose yourself at Angel Face’s site for a while~ it’s treat after treat, after yummy
treat.
