WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING...

I am a Bubble and Bee Lip Balm fan for life.  I have a habit of forgetting I have lip balm in my pants pockets.  That
means they tend to get washed and dried.  Every other brand I have ever used loses its consistency in the dryer and
I can't use it anymore.  But Bubble and Bee Karma Apple Lip Balm got washed and dried.  And much to my surprise,
it did not lose its consistency!  It's still the same smooth application that keeps my lips super soft!  Thanks so much
for a great product!

Dear Stephanie and co.,

I LOVE my pit putty. I ordered it last week and it came a few days ago - I actually waited a little to send something to you
guys because I was afraid it was too good to be true and wouldn't really work after the first day I used it. It's hands down
the most amazing deodorant I've ever used. I switched to aluminum-free deodorant about 2 years ago, but it's been a
struggle and until this I never found a product I really loved. Even when I was using aluminum-y deodorant I didn't have
one I loved! Seriously, this product is awesome. I don't know how you guys did it, but congrats.

Thanks again!

Hi Stephanie,

"Your shampoo is great" this is the only thought which comes out of my mind when ever I see the shampoo.

I am very sorry for the delayed reply since,I was out of station and just got to use it once till now and it feels really nice.
Thank you for even sending the lip balm.

Can I use the same shampoo(lemon shampoo) for even my daughter who is 2 years old. I tried most of the brands in the market but they all make her hair very dry. But the only thing is her hair is dry and mine is oily.

Regards
Hema.

I just wanted to drop you a note and say THANKS for the Geranium/Lime deoderant I just purchased a few days ago. I love it!
It's a little weird getting used to the texture compared to the drugstore deoderants, but the smell is amazing and it actually is working for me too. I will be back to purchase more as soon as mine runs out.

I know you've been told this a million times but the lime shower gel really does smell like a freshly squeezed lime.
I particularly like using it for shaving my legs. The chamomile/lavendar soap is lovely and I still use the all over body
bar on my face - it is so moisturizing and has NEVER dried my skin out, which says a lot. I've found the flax seeds
are helping my skin, and overall my skin has improved in the last few months. However, I still tend to get a lot of
blackheads. Is there a certain amount of flax seeds you recommend eating per day? And, of course, I love soap
nuts. I don't remember the last time something has made me so happy!!

Take care and thanks for all of your products. They make me really, really happy!

Hi,

I just wanted to send an email to let you know how much I enjoy your products. I've been a customer for a year or so
and it's so nice to see how much you've grown in that time and the expansion of the product line. I especially love
the root beer lip balm and the lemon shower gel. It's great to see a company start out small and thrive, especially today.

Wishing you continued success!
Jennifer

I started using Pit Putty about a week ago, and oh my goodness!  I  LOVE it, I smell freaking awesome and it protects
better than my  antiperspirants ever did!  That and the funny notes on your packaging are a bonus!  I've been
converted and I love your deodorant.

Hey Stephanie, Sorry for the late reply. I wanted to give some time before I responded to see if I truly enjoyed the products
after a bit of detoxifying time. I must say that I am quite thrilled with the results! The first few days I hated the shampoo
haha it made my hair a bit greasy and a vinegar rinse seemed wild to me but now my hair is SO manageable! It
takes less time to air dry (thankfully because I hate blow drying), less time to style and just overall I'm impressed.
And the pit putty is a deodorant that actually works! 

I must say other then great results with your products I love that I can read your ingredient list and am not staring
 puzzled at long chemical names! And you make organics fun, nice and easy to use!

Just wanna say thanks for the great products!

Jaime.

We've both switched for good to Pitty Putty (for me) and Truly Herbal Odor-Bee-Gone (for him). We were both using Clinical Strength deodorants and will never go back. We are so excited we found your product!!! They have worked from day 1 and we
really put them to the test by moving from our apartment into our new home on the first day we started using them. 

Thanks again!

Hello,
     I just received my order and wanted to thank you for the freebie orange lip balm. This lip balm is my new favorite and
I was so excited to see it in the box!! My cat loves it when I wear the root beer lip balm; she tries to lick it off my lips! 
Also, I love your rasp berry body butter. Well done!!
     Thank you again for the freebie and for the great products.

Hi Stephanie,
Finally!!!!! I just ordered the Pit Putty Organic Deodorant and absolutely love it!!!!! There are so many products
out there organic and not organic claiming they have the best products.  Not true by any means, because I have
found the best deodorant made by you guys!!!! Thanks so much for an awesome, smell good, work good product!!

Hi Stephanie!

As always I want to say how fantastic your products are, I couldn't be happier. I have been using the lavender body wash not only as
a shower gel but also as a shampoo with great results. My hair is soft and I don't even need to use a vinegar rinse like with the
actual shampoos from Bubble and Bee.

I just wanted to encourage your company to consider using glass bottles for packaging shampoos and other products rather than plastic, as plastic is bad for the environment and certain chemicals may also leak from plastics into the products, though this is controversial.

Thanks,

Gittel

We just went through our first container of pit putty - and it's AMAZING.  My husband sweats *ahem* a lot.  And he was utterly unconvinced by the idea of a "safe" deodorant - we both thought that might be code for "ineffective".  But he was so surprised to find that he loved it!  Much more than anything else, and he adores the scent.  I just put through a purchase of the spray, with the regular pit putty as well, just so we can give it a try.  Thanks for making such great products, I'm constantly blown away by the quality of service and goods. 

Just a hint, I'd looooove to see some makeup if you ever get a chance!!  :)

Oh and PS.. . I forgot to mention this the last time, but we tried your insect repellent two months or so ago, and despite the pretty awful smell, it worked like a complete charm.  The smell doesn't bother me at all knowing that it's safe for my baby, husband, and myself.  It's great :)

____________________________________________________________________________________________

We just rec'd our package from Bubble and Bee....THANK YOU for the freebie...my daughter and I were so excited to get our stuff and the extra lip balm just made it so much more delightful to deal with such a great company!!!! Sooo grateful you you exist!

Thanks for making such awesome products.

Hi Stephanie,

I just wanted to thank you for your products, I have been looking and using natural/organic body care for awhile but none of them have been as great as yours...  It was hard trying to get my family to switch to the "good" stuff at first because even though they were good they didn't always smell so great... I have used Burts Bee's, Pangea, Terrasentials, etc.. but none match how great yours smell and how well they work....  Just wanted to let you know!  

Have a great day,
Clarissa

Hi Steph

I just had to send you a note regarding your Pit Putty.  I first ordered it over a year ago and loved the fragrance, the feel of it, everything but the crumbling.  It was such a mess, that I just did not want to deal with it.  The other day I was perusing your site and read the updated information regarding the Putty and a light bulb lit in my brain…I live in Arizona.  During the summer, the inside of my house NEVER drops below 80 degrees.  I located my Pit Putty in the cabinet, rounded off the top and shaped it and placed it in the refrigerator…whallaa….It now goes on perfectly..absolutely no crumbling and I am thrilled!!!!  I now just keep it in the refrigerator.  I have such a problem, that I used a mild fragranced men’s antiperspirant to feel safe.  I am doing just fine with your Pit Putty and am so very grateful to be rid of the chemicals.  Your products are a blessing.

Thank you

Judy

Dear Bubble and Bee,

Boy am I ever so glad you introduced the world to Super Pit Putty.  I was on my last strike before my husband banned me from making him try any more "natural" deodorants.  But enter my last attempt, the Super Pit Putty, and now not only does he not stink like my enemy Old Spice, but he is using a 100% natural organic product.  Oh happy day!

Many thanks!

P.S.  The coconut lime lotion stick is superb, organic, non greasy, moisturizing, delicious scent, what more can a girl ask for? 

______________________________________________________________________________

Thanks so much Stephanie! I appreciate your email.

Actually, I went ahead and ordered the Geranium Lime Pit Putty in the meantime...I LOVE IT! After about a week of use...no rash or irritation! I am so pleased. It smells absolutely wonderful too!  I also ordered two lip balms, the coconut lime lotion stick, and a lemon and clove Pit Putty for my husband. We love everything! It is so nice to know that what we are putting on our skin is good for us! Thank you also for free lip balm with my order...it was much appreciated. Also, thanks for the the discount code - we will definitely be using it in the future for anther order!

Thanks for what you do...it is so nice to have a product line to chose from like yours. There are so many "natural" things out there that are not natural at all. But your products are something I can trust.

Thanks,

Melissa

I almost gave up on the organic/healthy non-toxic deodorants!  Thank God I ordered PitPutty, finally I can stop worrying while at work and I don't have to worry about my shirts and blouses.  It works all day and even til the morning!  Just wanted to give you some positive feedback.

Sincerely,
Duanna

Hi Stephanie,
I just want to thank you on your suggestion of the Geranium Lime Pit Putty with Baking Soda. It totally rocks!!! I thought I would never find an all natural deodorant to keep me from getting stinky, but this product is amazing. I ran 2 miles on my treadmill and was totally fine afterward. Thanks so much for your help. I've started "detoxing" with your shampoo and so far its been doing a nice job. I"ll keep you posted. Thanks again for your wonderful products! You have a customer for life!!

Thanks so much for the natural shampoo.  I Love both of them.  I've never been very happy with the shampoo in the stores and having to use all that conditioner afterward just to get you fingers through.  My hair always felt heavy and lifeless.  Now it is healthier and light and actually holds a style alot longer if I decide to style it.  I prefer to just dry and go.

I am also loving the other products I've tried: the lip balm and lotion stick (great idea).  The pit putty, not so sure of, very hard to use it
clumps and flake all over the floor trying to use it.  I'm going to try the spray and stick to see if it works better for me.

Anyway thanks for all your hard work.

New loyal customer,

Melanie

I just wanted to say how much I **love** your products!
I have literally tried every natural deodorant under the sun, and this is the very FIRST one that has ever worked for me.
I bought it when I was visiting a friend in LA, and came home and my boyfriend liked it so much, too, that we made an online order.  I also love the lip balm, too!
This is the best product around, congratulations on your success!

Hello Stephanie!

Is it too late to sign up for the Chemical of the Day blog?  If not, I'd really like to be added to the list :)  I just adore your products, and can't wait to be educated on harmful chemicals, and put in my next order!  The Raspberry Vanilla Body Butta ROCKS MY SOCKS OFF!!! 

Thanks so much :)

About a month ago i purchased your lemon shampoo, a chai guy lotion stick & you threw in a lip balm free.  I just wanted to let you know, now that I feel a good time for 'detox' has passed so i can really 'review' the product, i LOVE all of them!!! REALLY love them.  :)  i've tried natural shampoo, and even going "no poo" with baking soda & vinegar a few times, with varying negative results (the 'no poo' led to MUCH breakage/damage!).  so I was hesitant with this, but i am LOVING my hair right now.  :)   Truly is shiny, strong, and super maneagable.  Thanks!  Also, i was having a problem with sore scratchy dry spots on my hands (due to winter dryness) that no matter how much lotion i put on (tried a wide variety of brands even caved to 'regular'/non-natural stuff in hopes it would at least WORK).  a week after using the lotion stick, it was gone. 

Anyhow, thanks, I will definitely buy from ya'll again.  I also plan to write a little 'review' on my blog (which is NOT a 'product review' kinda blog) because I'm so excited about it.   A truly 'natural' product that works???   Sold!  :)

thanks,

jenn

Got my order today and the smells were wonderful as I opened the package.  The coconut lime lotion stick and apple karma lip balm smells really good but strong and I was worried that I would smell like that if I were to use it at the office.  However, once applied, the scents were subtle so no worries!  Oh, and the woven basket is adorable too! 
Thanks again!

Hi Stephanie,

I’m so happy with the new products I purchased. I’d been thinking of ordering The Bamboo towel set for quite a while and I’m glad I finally did. The towels are unbelievably SOFT, the deep chocolate brown color looks very rich and the generous size of the bath towel is great. All three towels (washcloth, hand and bath) are perfect and have a nice border. The Peppermint Cocoa lip balm is awesome! Now I can finally throw my Blistex Medex away because I’ve found something better that is safe to use.

Thanks so much!

Hi Stephanie. Just wanted to let you know I love your products! I am amazed that the Pit Putty actually works for me. I always thought I was not someone who could go without a really strong antiperspirant. Turns out I can (as long as I don't break a major sweat I've learned). It will make a great Christmas gift for my friends & family. I'm also a Chap Stick addict and your lip balm is so much better. I've tried other organic/ toxic-free kinds as well and they're way too "oily". My husband is now addicted to the Root Beer flavor. Love the soaps, love the scrub, can't wait for Spring to try out the bug spray (mosquitoes love me). Looking forward to more Bubble & Bee products. Thanks again!

Dear Bubble and Bee,

I'd like to thank you for making products that are safe and that work wonders. After reading the recent reports on the Johnson & Johnson products as well as others that tested positive for carcinogens, I was terrified to learn through the Skin Deep database that all of the products I used were dangerous. Your company was the only one I found that was 100% organic and chemical free. And now, after only two days of use, I have seen a profoundly positive change in my body. Again thanks so much for making a product line that is safe and that works, you now have a customer for life.

Thanks again,
Sean, Tampa, FL.

Hi Stephanie;
Thanks for the info on the shipment of my package.  It has been delivered to the California address and now I wait... for them to ship it to me.  Oh the things we Canadians will do to get your products!! 

Here's just a sample of why we go through hoops to get your products:
Devin (my 9 year old son) and I both love your all the products we've tried so far.  We both use the peppermint & tea tree shampoo and love it.  There was definitely a detox period which was a little rough for me, but I stuck with it and can't believe the difference in my hair.  I have shoulder length, very thick hair and have NEVER, EVER not had to use conditioner. Since I started using your shampoo in February, I haven't needed or wanted conditioner and my hair is sooooooo shiny!  Devin has the "9 year old , messy, longish hair style" which never gets combed and his hair is thick and unruly.  We used to have to wash his hair, then spray in tonnes of leave-in conditioner just to get a comb through it and it would still be difficult to get rid of all the tangles.  Since we started using your shampoo, we wash it, rinse with vinegar, easily comb it - the tangles just fall out and his hair is shiny & beautiful! Devin is amazed at how the tangles just disappear without me combing/pulling/ripping through his hair. Not one "ouch" from him -- it is that easy!

So thank you for giving us beautiful, manageable, hair!

Hi there,

Just wanted to tell you that after trying a few of your deodorants, the truly herbal stick is absolutely the best thing in the world.

Thanks,

I just wanted to tell you how much I am enjoying my goodies from you.  The Raspberry & Vanilla Body Butter is absolutely
wonderful and I can't imagine how I lived with out it!  I carry the lotion stick and lip balm in my purse to keep my hands soft and my lips moist.  I just started using the Pit Putty and spray deodorants so I can't give an opinion yet until my 10 days are up as to which is a better product for me, but as far as scent goes I love them both.   I do want to give you some feedback on the shampoos that I purchased.  I really did not know what to expect from the shampoo, but I decided to give it a try.  My biggest stumbling block was using the vinegar for a conditioner/rinse because all I could imagine was straw hair, but I just decided to go for it and see what happened.  So my three kids, Hunter 6, Morgan and Mackenna 5, became my test subjects to try out the shampoo and vinegar rinse.  No, I don't normally use my children as guinea pigs, but since I knew the ingredients were safe, I knew it wouldn't hurt them and if the shampoo and vinegar rinse could tame Morgan's hair (her hair is long and fine and it tangles if you look at it the wrong way) then it truly was a miracle product for me.  The shampoos smelled great and were concentrated so a little went a long way and their hair was squeaky clean.  I then followed it with the vinegar rinse and imagine my surprise when Morgan's hair felt so silky soft and combing it after was a breeze with no tangles (this was not possible before without using a massive amount of detangler). Vinegar?  Go figure that it would turn out to be a great conditioner!?   Also, the kids were able to use the Lime Shower Gel which was  followed by the yummy body butter so not only do I love your products, but my kids are your biggest fans too.  Bath time now at my house is a race to see who can get there first and can they please wash their hair followed by some body butter.  How many kids do you know who insist on going to take a bath and wash their hair?  Ummm, not at my house before getting all my goodies from you!  Now they all insist they need to have their own lip balms so that they don't have to share my rootbeer lip balm (yes, my kids confiscated my lip balm).  Everything smells so good I just hope they are not tempted to eat them instead of wear them!

I look forward to being a faithful customer and enjoying all of your scrumptious products now and in the future. 

Have a great day!

Christina

P.S.  Ooops, sorry this email was longer than I intended it to be, but I just couldn't resist telling you how great
your products are and how much we are enjoying them!

Dear Stephanie,

Seriously, every Bubble and Bee product I've tried in the last week  has not failed to impress me.  Everything
works really, really well.   The Pit Putty is good stuff; it lasts almost all day and I don't  smell.  I tested the Pit
Putty against one hour of kickboxing and I  discreetly whiffed my pits afterward to find that, hey, I didn't  stink. 
I know it's not an anti-perspirant. but I think I actually  sweat a little less.  As an extra plus, my pits don't have a
funny, end-of-the day smell that I used to get with other "all-natural" deodorants (specifically, Kiss My Face
Liquid Rock - sure, you start  out smelling like lavender, but then it just turns sour).  I can't  recommend the
Pit Putty enough.  The Lemongrass and Rosemary Spray is  great to carry around in case you need a quick
pit refresher.

The Really Good Shampoo has, in fact, lived up to its name.  My hair  care routine is so much simpler now. 
No more spending an above- average amount of money on organic/natural/sls-free shampoo and the 
matching conditioner and the leave-in treatment AND whatever else  gets thrown on hair.  My hair is clean
, soft, shiny, and even feels a  little thicker.  The vinegar rinse is the best detangler ever, and I  had no idea
how damaging hard water is to hair until I added baking 
soda to my water (by the way, is it 1 teaspoon of baking soda per  pitcher of water, or 1 teaspoon per cup
of water?).  The point is, my  hair is no longer a hot mess and it's thanks to your shampoo.  My  hair just
feels straight-up clean.

Also, I almost ate the Raspberry Vanilla Body Butta.  I WANT TO EAT  IT.  It smells that good.

The Coconut Lime Lotion Stick saved my poor chapped hands.  Previously, my hands were red and chapped
from handing library books  all day and the excessive hand washing that goes along with it, but  now my hands
and cuticles are back to normal.  I don't think I can go  back to regular lotion.

The Vanilla Peppermint scrub smelled so stank and off-putting when I  first opened the container, but when
I scrubbed it on, it smelled  like vanilla mint goodness.  How do you do that?!

I guess what I could have said in one short sentence, instead of a  few paragraphs, is that I'm addicted to your
product line because it  works well, it's chemical-free, mostly vegan, and it makes me smell  better.  Everyone
wins.  I can't wait to try the rest.  Thank you so  much for creating Bubble and Bee

Courtney

It was very impressive how quickly my order arrived. As this was my first time ordering, I was pleased at the quality
of the products as well. Thank you too, for including the root berr lip balm in my order. That was very generous of
you, and very much appreciated. I am also glad to have the opportunity to try the product. Thank you for such a
wonderful ordering experience with you. I look forward to doing business with you in the future.

Hey Stephanie,

I am so blown away by the new body butter! The Raspberry & Vanilla smells so wonderful (good enough to eat) and
a bit like a chocolate raspberry truffle. Before you added this awesome product, I looked everywhere for a chemical
free body butter. Eventually, I found a source online and purchased a natural body “butter”. It was basically whipped
oil that would melt as soon as I scooped some into my hands. On a recent warm day, it melted completely in the ja
r, just a soupy mess. Sure, it solidified after a stint in the fridge. Yes, it smelled alright but who wants to run to the
fridge for their moisturizer after every shower or bath?  Then I got your newsletter announcement and ordered one
immediately. It is absolutely no contest. Thick, luxurious, smells scrumptious (it passed with hubby’s approval too)
and moisturizes perfectly, “Body Butta” is the winner! No surprise there! Now, what do you think the chances are for
“Geranium Lime” scented butter for the future?

The product line gets better all the time – love your cute packaging too! Thanks so much for all the hard work you
put into product development.

Have a great day,

Karen

I simply can not quit tooting Bubble & Bee’s horn. First came their Pit Putty (my deodorant true love) following by their super smooth and yummy lip balms. Now for the latest addition to the awesome Bubble & Bee line up…

Raspberry & Vanilla Body Butta lives up to the attitude it represents. Delicately scented (think chocolate raspberry torte) and the consistency of buttercream frosting, this creamy, dreamy body butter is a pleasure to the skin and senses.

Made with ever loving shea butter and the addition of coconut oil with retained coconut meat for a non-greasy moisturizing experience. I slather my body after showering and my skin is still soft and smooth the next morning. The true measure of a good body cream! Comes in 4 and 8 oz. sizes complete with the usual Bubble & Bee fun and funky packaging.

Thank you so much for the body butter.  It smells HEAVENLY!   If I  didn't know it was lotion, I'd probably get a spoon and eat it.   

Statia

Body Butta_________________________________________________________________________________________

I just received my latest order, which included the new Raspberry and Vanilla Body Butter. I’ve only been using the product for a couple days, but so far I’m incredibly impressed. It smells absolutely delicious (like so yummy I’ve been tempted to I eat it!), and the consistency is perfectly smooth and non-greasy.

I know you don’t advertise the body butter as a pregnancy product for growing bellies, but you should! I’ve been searching high and low for an organic lotion to keep my belly moisturized (to help ward off stretch marks) during my pregnancy, and yours is the only one I’ve found. Most other organic products designed to reduce stretch marks are in oil form (which are just too, well, oily!), and other products contain nasty chemicals and preservatives that I want to avoid while growing a little person inside me.

Thank you SO much for creating a product that will keep my growing body and stretching skin well-moisturized and soft, not to mention smelling amazing.

You are THE BEST!!!

I have recently become a loyal customer of Bubble and Bee.  I started with the deodorants and continue to try new products.  The one I am absolutely stunned by is the Really Good Shampoo.  I have been an Aveda and Pureology customer for years, obviously spending a good amount money on shampoo and conditioner because I felt these were the only products that made my hair shiny and soft.  Several weeks ago when you sent out your email about the recent production of the Really Good Shampoo, I decided to give it a whirl.  Oh my goodness, my hair adjusted to it almost immediately and I cannot believe how soft and beautiful it's become using only your shampoo.
 
Thank you so much for reading this email and more importantly, for your wonderful products.  Not only do I feel good about the organic ingredients and
cruelty free way in which you do business, the products are great!
 
Most sincerely,

I just wanted to say that I absolutely LOVE all of your products! Living in ND I often have to turn to the internet for high-quality organic products and I must say that I have tried most of them and yours are by far the best! I have used everything from the shampoo to the deodorant to the chapstick to the body wash. It is all of the absolute highest quality. But that is not all that separates you from other companies. I have never received such personal care and attention with an internet order before. It is clear you give each client and each order the utmost of priority and that is truly a rare find in today's market. Keep it up!

Hi Stephanie

First of all, let me just say THANK YOU for creating a 100% natural line of personal care products!  The word "natural" seems to get thrown around a lot these days, but when I see the short list of amazing ingredients in your products, I think natural!  Until about a month ago, I never really thought about the chemicals in everything I was using.  Once I researched some of the more questionable-sounding ingredients, however, I was shocked at how harmful some of the most popular ones were.  I was even more shocked at how little legislation enforced testing of each ingredient that goes into every product on the market.  I vowed to search for products that met my new strict guidelines.  I actually used a website that you recommend before coming across your site (cosmeticsdatabase.com).  It was great to see what products actually lived up to their claims of being "natural".  A lot of your products came up, so I went to your website.  As I said earlier, the very short list of great ingredients hooked me.  I recently purchased a bar of mint tea soap and your lemon shampoo.  The shampoo took a little getting used to, as I've always used a shampoo + conditioner combo.  On your website, you mentioned that there might be a detox period as your hair gets used to a non-detergent-based shampoo.  However, for some reason, my hair felt AMAZING the first time I used it!  It's never been this soft or manageable!  It feels stronger, too!  I used to use anti-breakage shampoo and conditioner because sometimes I straighten my hair, which causes some breakage due to the intense heat.  I used to love it because it made my hair feel so much stronger.  I never thought I could live without it, but after trying your shampoo and vinegar rinse, I have to say I'm a believer!  I don't think I'll ever go back!  The one complaint I have is the prices are a little higher than I would like, but I do appreciate the fact that you include a lot of organic ingredients in your products (some even have 100% organic ingredients!  Wow!).

You are awesome!  I'm going to try the G/L pit putty with baking soda - I'm not a big fan of patchouli and hope its the baking soda in the Super Pit putty that makes it work so well; the TH spray seemed to work except that I got that funny smell with the rosemary and so I would also like to add the geranium lime spray for which I would be happy to pay full price, just adjust my order when you see it - its order #015783117A .  Also, please let me know how to order these custom blends in the future.
 
Also I LOVE LOVE LOVE the new shampoo!  My hair, which is pretty long, actually reacts quite well to it and I only needed a few days of detox (I was already using a pretty natural shampoo).  My husband says that I smell like a lemon drop and he just won't stop smelling my hair - I know, sounds like an ad for "Gee, Your Hair Smells Terrific" shampoo but its true.  Its all I use now - no conditioner - and its awesome!  Now I'm looking forward to trying the new unscented soap....

Keep up the amazing work!

Stephanie-

First, THANKS SO MUCH for caring about women's health. ( I say women's because we are the ones that slather on ALL the products.)  Your work is a blessing to the chemically challenged of us who don't know paraben from paraphrase.  You have found your calling!

I found your products on the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics list.  I started browsing through the list of safe cosmetics and pulled up a few.  They were all the same- flowers and drab- you know the story. Until I got to yours- it was so fun and Natural!! ( I read how your name and design came about- a blessing in disguise.)  So I ordered up a slew of the stuff. 

I LOVE EVERYTHING I ORDERED!! 

I have tried SO MANY natural deoderants and been SO disappointed.  I had almost given up on natural products.....I LOVE LOVE LOVE the PIT PUTTY.  It is amazing!!  It actually works better than the store bought stuff. The lotion stick is fabulous and smells so fresh.  The shampoo has my hair looking better than it ever has.  I love the smell and feel of the body wash.  The lip balms smell so good you could eat em-the apple is GREAT.  And as for the bugspray, well, here in Tennessee, it's kind of out of season, but I'll let you know next summer. 

Your products are unlike any other "natural" product I have ever tried and I am a huge fan and very thankful for all your hard work to keep us safe!!  God bless and keep you.  I'm looking forward to trying the entire line!!  Keep it all coming.  THANKS AGAIN!

Tara from Tennessee

Your products are fantastic.  I grew up in SLC and still read the Deseret News online, which is where I came across Bubble & Bee.  This discovery couldn't have come at a more perfect time, as my husband had just reached his limit with my natural deodorant experimentation.  We have tried, and been disappointed in, a large number of 'natural deoderants'.  My husband had began to ask to just go back to the normal stuff.  He gave me one more chance when I told him about Pit Putty.  On a recent trip to SLC we picked up the Original Pit Putty and the Lemongrass & Rosemary Shower Gel.  We are now devoted fans and customers!  My husband was very impressed with the fact that the Pit Putty not only kept him smelling sweet but dry as well!  The lather factor of the shower gel is second to none.  Thank you for making such wonderful and worry-free products.  Whole Foods needs to carry more - I was hoping to also purchase the shampoo.  We both love Bubble & Bee.

Thanks!
Adrienne

So I've never been impressed with the "truly natural and organic" products out there in the market.  Usually they smell weird or don't feel as good as the chemcial-laden ones.  Well, I can now change my tune, as your products are amazing!  Not only do they smell heavenly, but they also work BETTER than their chemical-laden counterparts.  I live in very dry Colorado and the Sunflower Lotion Bar is the first thing I've tried in years that actually has my hands not cracking like crazy!  And the Peppermint & Cocoa lip balm is simply to die for.  I've been a big fan of Blistex Lip Medex for years since I love the tingling feeling it gives, and how it lasts longer than most other balms.  But your Peppermint & Cocoa Lip Balm not only tingles longer than the Blistex, it also stays on my lips longer too!  So as you can see, I'm just super happy with everything.  In fact, I'm putting together another order to buy my friends and family gift baskets of your products for the holidays.  I know they will all love everything as much as I do, so please keep up the good work. 

The only question I have is, do you have any plans to come out with a face lotion any time soon?  That would be fantastic!

Thanks!
Michele

Hi Stephanie,

Meant to write sooner to thank you a TON for the new Pit Putty in Geranium Lime……I truly LOVE IT! The regular one worked well for me until we hit the heights of summertime sweating here in Florida. The new scent works absolutely perfectly and it smells so great (just like my favorite lotion stick Coconut Lime). Before discovering Pit Putty I never thought I’d find an herbal deodorant that actually worked and wasn’t sticky (next to being smelly, sticky armpits are the worst, LOL).

I love Bubble and Bee!

(Have a great Thanksgiving)

Karen

__________________________________________________________________________

Hi Stephanie!  You just recently sent me and my husband some replacement deodorants.  I got the Geranium Lime and my husband got the Super Pit Putty.  I have been using the Geranium/Lime Pit Putty for a while now and it seems to work much better than the Original Pit Putty.  That being said, I'm not sure we're quite there yet.  I think I would like to try the same Super Pit Putty that my husband got.  I have secretly been using it for a couple of days and it seems to be doing the trick for me :)  As for my husband, he has been using his Super Pit Putty and LOVES it!  It's AMAZING!!  It smells sooooooo good that I thought he was wearing colonge!  I want to say thank you so much for turning both me and my husband into Natural Deodorant Believers :)  I'll admit that after trying our first Pit Putty's, we were quite sceptical that any of the formulas would actually work.  I'm sure glad that you proved us wrong :)  Thank you for creating such wonderful natural products.  I'm excited to tell friends and family about your wonderful products and terrific service.  I look forward to trying more Bubble and Bee products in the future.  Tania

Hi Stephanie & Steve,

As a small business owner, I always appreciate getting these types of emails from my customers, so I wanted to be SURE I took a minute to write to you both!

I just received my first order from Bubble and Bee and can not possibly articulate how absolutely thrilled I am with my purchases. I stumbleld upon your store during a google search about arrowroot powder. When my search led me to Bubble and Bee I was in complete aww of what I had just found! Having just started dabbling in the organic bath and body arena I am trying to educate myself more and more each day. Not only does your store offer unique and super fun organic products, but it contains a host of useful information.

I have already torn open all the lip balms and the lotion sticks (including the one chai guy I purchased for my boyfriend). The literature you attach to your products is fantastic - the designs are so fun and fresh! Thank you for the licorice soap sample and the root beer lip balm! I can't wait to test the soaps and try the Pit Putty deodorant. We are in NY and it's a bit cold to give the bug repellent a go, but come spring when my son's little league season begins we will be sure to bring it with us to share with the team. Mosquitoes and gnats seem to be a major issue for us, as our baseball diamond is just beside a canal - and you know how they love the water!

Kudos to you for developing such wonderful products. Keep doing what you are doing. It's evident you love what you do and you have confidence in your products.

Thank you, thank you, I will be back many, many times!

Happy New Year!

Kind regards,

Julie

I am sure you get bombarded with a lot of emails but I just had to tell you…THANK YOU! I have been composing an email to you ever since I received my first order, I just placed another and thought you should know why… I heard about Bubble and Bee after discovering the Environmental Working Group’s Cosmetics Safety Database. If it was not for EWG I would never have found you so I guess I owe them a big thank you as well! I got rid of TONS of products that, unbeknownst to me, were harming my body and the environment. Even some of my “organic” and “natural” products were “bad for me” according to EWG! I have always been interested in organic living and as I learn more information I am more and more compelled to try anything that is less harmful to myself and the environment. Thus, I placed my first order with you only a few months back.

       To be honest I was very nervous about how everything would work especially when I read there was a detox period with the shampoo and deodorant. My experience with “organic” and “natural” products is that they are just “ok,” but I have never really been a repeat customer for any of those products because they didn’t work, dried out my skin, didn’t smell good, or were just too expensive. I can’t tell you how relieved I was that everything worked better than I had expected! Even given the slight period of adjustment in the beginning with the shampoo and deodorant, the “detox” was quick and worth the few days of smelly pits and greasy hair.  Every product of yours I tried worked better than all the products I threw out after finding EWG, even the expensive salon products! I was worried about spending the money and being let down, but I have never been happier with a purchase!

        The deodorants are AMAZING (Truly Herbal and Pit Putty) and they worked better than anything I have used! I actually am ordering the Lemongrass and Rosemary deodorant so I have a variety! I know it’s a little sad that a small splurge like a different Bubble and Bee deodorant scent totally makes my day! The soaps were all WONDERFUL and I just placed my order for more. The lip balms are better than any I have used. I thought I would never use anything but Burt’s Bees but they have all been replaced with yours. I tried the shampoo even though I was a little hesitant about using vinegar as a rinse/ conditioner. I was convinced I would go back to a “regular” shampoo and conditioner. Lo and behold, I won’t touch any other shampoo except yours! My hair is softer, less frizzy, shinier, stronger, and it even seems to be growing faster. Everyone thinks I am nuts because of how much I rave about your products but I don’t care. They are affordable, smell wonderful, long lasting, and most importantly CHEMICAL FREE AND SAFE! I also wanted to say how much I appreciated your emails informing me about a delay because you needed to make a fresh batch of shampoo and then you sent an extra lip balm which was very thoughtful and frequently used! I love your website, creative designs, and all the blogs and facts you have posted; I have learned a lot! Sorry for my short novel, but once again, thank you for your hard work and genuine concern for our health and wellbeing. I send my blessings and sincerest gratitude! I am a Bubble and Bee lifer!

Best regards,
Stacie

Dear Stephanie, 

I have to tell you about my experience with this product [sunflower lotion bar].  As you may remember..., I have many years experience in the health care industry.  Because I CONSTANTLY washed my hands at that job, the cuticles around my nails were trashed.  Add to that my nervous habit of peeling away the dry skin and hang nails that resulted from the damage, my fingers were in a constant state of sore, cracked and bleeding disrepair.  I literally felt like I had tried EVERY thing!  I even went to a dermatologist who tried me on a couple of prescription strength steroid creams.  Nothing worked.  After a couple of weeks and lots of dollars later, I was always back where I started.  When I started using the Sunflower Lotion Bar, I was dubious as to how well it would work.  But, it was convenient and I liked the smell so I persisted.  I even wore a little “half-moon divot” in the side where I slid the bar over the tips of my fingers (it kind of looks like “Pac-Man”!).  After about a week or so, my cuticles didn’t seem to be “fraying” or “peeling” like they normally would.  Even though I haven’t worked in the healthcare industry for a few years, being a certified germaphobe I still wash my hands a lot.  At first I attributed the new development to something else I might have been doing.  I’m not sure what that could have been, but I was sure it couldn’t just be the lotion bar.  I mean, I’d actually gone to a DOCTOR for crying out loud and gotten a prescription.  THAT didn’t help so how could something as simple as an organic lotion bar be the cause??  I kept with the lotion bar and just the other day I noticed, for the FIRST time since high school (a long time ago, in a galaxy, far, far away!), ALL of my cuticles, nail beds and fingertips were pink and healthy.  Even my fingernails looked stronger.   I’m SO excited! ...I HAD to tell you about my true-blue experience and thusly my conversion to being a believer in this product!!

 I’m VERY MUCH looking forward to getting my new lotion bars!!  Kim

Stephanie,

I just got the package from my first order on Wednesday!  Thanks for getting it out so fast.  I’m totally surprised it can get from UT to TX (Houston) in two days – and by USPS no less!!

My 4-1/2 yr old daughter and I immediately opened the Golden Flax Seeds and ate them.  SHE LIKES THEM (so do I).  She says they remind her of trail mix.  She’s allergic to EVERYTHING so this is a great thing.  We tried some of the other products and I know we’ll be customers for life.  I’ve been looking so long for ALL natural/organic products.  I’ve learned the hard way that just by going to Whole Foods or natural stores doesn’t guarantee a wholesome, pure product.

Thanks also for the Licorice soap sample and Karma Apple Balm “free bees”.  I ordered Balm for everyone in my family but me, so that’s awesome.

I saw you ship to a store in Geneva, IL and I will pass the word on to all my family and friends there. 

Looking forward to getting the chem of the day e-mails.

Best regards,

Stephanie

I've been shopping at Bubble and Bee for just under a year. I am so pleased with your products and your service! I hope Bubble and Bee grows to be successful, but that you never lose that "small town pharmacy" feel. You guys are great! My most recent order just arrived yesterday- the Raspberry Lemonade Salt Scrub is so amazing- so much so in fact that I wanted to eat it! :-) I'm excited to try the soaps, too, as I've only heard good things! And of course, I had to stock up lip balms- they are truly the best I have ever tried.

I just placed another order for some more stuff to send to my sisters and mom in care packages. All three are going through some fairly rough times right now- my mom will have surgery in March, my middle sister is due with baby #3 in a few weeks and is feeling ultra stressed, and my eldest sister is getting ready to go back to work after having her first baby in October, and obviously is feeling quite blue. So my girls definitely need a pick-me-ups. I'm so excited to send them your awesome products. Thanks again for "going to battle" against the major cosmetics companies in America. In my eyes, you guys win everytime!

Loyal for life,
Alicia

Hi Stephanie, I received my order yesterday and wanted to let you know that it arrived in perfect order in the middle of the snowstorm. I also wanted to thank you for the freebie orange lip balm. I gave it to my 21 yr old son (who is an orange junkie), and he almost swooned!  Not too pretty in a 21 yr old man, but hilarious if you are his Mom!!!
Thanks again for all your wonderful products. Laina

Wow, thank you Stephanie!  I have to say it is so refreshing to find truly natural products that actually work!  After using a national "natural and organic" (in quotes b/c after some research I see it is not as natural as I thought it was) brand of deoderant for 3 months I was so displeased that I was very tempted to go back to mainstream products.  It was sticky and it did not control odors.  But the Pit Putty saved the day!  ;)  Works beautifully and smells good too.  I LOVE the root beer lip balm and sunflower lotion stick you sent as extras.  Both are fabulous!  I also got the shampoo and while I was leary about the vinegar rinse, lo and behold - it works too!  My kids think I am insane for putting vinegar on their heads, but my two oldest also commented the next morning, after their first try with your shampoo, that they had no tangles - which makes all of us happy.  :) 

I do have one question about the hair care.  Do you think it would be ok (would it work) to put some essential oil in the vinegar solution?  Or maybe in the palm of my hands and applied after getting out of the shower?  I (and others!) don't think our hair smells like vinegar, but my husband thinks our hair smells "funny".  If you do think either method would work, do you think any certain oils would be better than others? [Note: yep--you can add essential oils to your vinegar, or use citric acid or lemon juice as a replacement instead of vinegar] 

Thanks for making such wonderful products that are truly natural.  I am so sick of reading labels of supposedly natural products that either contain widely known harmful ingredients or have so many ingedients that my head swirls reading it.  I love looking at your labels and finding only a handful of ingredients that I can pronounce.  :)  It also thrills me to no end to support a small business rather than a large corporation.  While I try to buy locally made products as much as I can, I am so glad I found you all the way in Utah!  The coupon code will come in handy - with a family of 6 and the economy as it is, I sometimes sacrifice other things to raise my children and naturally and organically as I can.  I have already spread the word to a few friends - hopefully they'll make a purchase soon!

Hi Stephanie- about 18 months ago the shampoo I was using (for about 15
yrs.) all of a sudden stopped working. It left my hair coated with I don't
know what. I used Neutrogena anti-residue shampoo to get rid of it kept
changing shampoo brands and it would happen again. I got your e-mail about
the shampoo (yours) and decided I had tried everything else so why not! I
followed your directions to the last detail and Bingo success. I have been
using  yours ever since it arrived and I have my hair back finally.

Susan.

Hi again,
I tried the shampoo tonight, and LOVE it.  My hair is really shiny, and silky smooth.  I tried the Lemon, and love the smell.  I will do my best to spread the word for your wonderful shampoo.

Take Care,

I tried the Lemon Shampoo last night- oh my goodness- it smelled like i was washing my hair in lemonade! It was amazing! The shampoo seemed to lather more easily than the Burt's Bees (Super Shiny Grapefruit & Sugar Beet) that I've been using. One thing though- I do have hard water, so I can't tell if I actually got it all out or not (It doesn't feel bad either way, though).  I also tried the vinegar rinse...I'll admit- I was skeptical- but I am a 100% believer (I just need to remember to close my eyes while I use it, though. youch!). My hair was so smooth and silky by the time I had emptied the bottle- combing through it was a breeze- like I had used a detangling spray. And I started craving salt & vinegar potato chips afterward!

I'll let you know in a few weeks how my hair has held up!

Keep up the great work!

I just ordered the lemon scent, and I am so excited about trying it.  I just asked my favorite health food store to carry your line today,  it is called "Nutrition Mart" located in Lake Forest, CA.  I just tried the soap nuts for the first time today, and they worked great!  Thanks again for all the great organic work you do!

I am just amazed with Pit Putty.  I play golf.. lots of golf in 90 and 100 degree temperatures in Central Texas and let me tell you I perspire ...and there's no pit stink coming from me !   Your product is wonderful.  It has a very pleasant fragrance, not sticky and is easy to apply.   Finally I can use a natural deodorant and be totally happy.  I'm so happy that my daughter found you and bought me my first tube.  For sure I'll be buying more.

Finally! I switched to all-natural chemical free products over a year ago and I thought my deodorant was working just fine...... until I started taking ballroom dancing lessons.  How embarrassing to find out your deodorant isn't cutting it in the arms of my instructor.  Needless to say, I was on a mission to fine something that really worked.  I tried so many natural deodorants and the skin deep website lead me to Pit Putty.  Thank God!  It works so well!!  I absolutely love it!  Since I started using it I have never smelled any B.O.  no matter how hard or long I am dancing!

Thank you so much!

I have searched and searched for an all natural underarm deoderant that works.  Over the years, I have tried the Thai Stick and many other all natural deoderants.  I have only used your product for two days, but I am convinced it works.  I am a flight attendant and am always worried about the odor.  Well in the last two days, I have tiled my kitchen floor without any odor.  It's quite simply a miracle.  I can hardly wait to try the rest of your products.  Thank you for finally creating something safe that also works.
My highest regards,

Thank you so much for expediting the shipping on my order.  Most of the order was for my mother-in-law and it arrived just in time for me to take it with us on our trip to visit her.  I am in love with everything I received!  The lotion sticks are wonderful - the texture is not so firm that they're hard to use, but solid enough that they really moisturize and protect.  The lip balms are perfect in every way!  (I love, love, love the Root Beer - when can we buy those?!)  And the 'Pit Putty is working magnificently - even in 100+ degree Texas weather!  The clove smell is delightful.  Actually, ALL of the smells are delightful!  I can't wait to try everything else ... you can be assured I'll be singing your praises to all of my friends and family!  Thank you for all of the time and effort you've put into creating these products.  I've been looking for something like Bubble and Bee for a long time.  I'm so happy to have found your company!

Thanks Again!

About a month ago I ordered several of your products and just wanted 
to let you know how pleased I am. Finally I have found organic 
deodorants that actually work - I like both Pit Putty (it is am 
amazing! really works and I love the mild scent too) and Lemongrass 
spray (long lasting - all day long)!

I totally love the lemongrass/rosemary shower gel - My five year old 
son enjoys it too :) And the last but not least  the vanilla & salt 
body scrub is the very best I have ever used (and I have used several).

I liked Coconut & Lime lotion stick but wanted to ask if you are 
planning to make it in a bottle, i.w., liquid? great scent and did its 
work well. However, I would prefer a different form, but it is very 
personal.

Anyways, will be ordering again soon!! As my goodies are about to be 
finished soon :)

Thank you for your great work! and again - so happy to discover your 
deodorants that are ORGANIC and actually WORK!! ;-) Thank you!

Kind regards,
Andra

I just wanted to write and thank you! I received my order today and I am very excited! And thank you so much for the extra lip balm and coupon! The extra time was no problem, I was just really excited to try your products! I'm already pleased with the products I've tried so far  (one of the lip balms and the lotion bar) and also the personal feel of service adds to the experience, I will surely be a continuing customer.  Thank you and good luck!

I received my order today.  Thank you for the extra, fun things in my package.  The whole box smelled yummy and the lip balm is delicious-my five year old wanted to lick it-I didn't let her, but it was sure nice knowing what care you've taken to make sure that only safe, good things are in it!

Thanks,

Thank you so much for making my 'Pit Putty.  I LOVE it.  I wanted to share my experience with it so far.  It works so well! The true test was being the pregnant lady that I am whose husband came back from the car garage on saturday (because I had to drive him back while he took the van - we had been trying to get the noisy a/c on the CRV fixed but they were going to look at the van and needed to find other bits to fix the a/c) what he neglected to tell me was that I would be driving the CRV without the a/c working......so it was 11:30am - REALLY hot and humid here in Bangkok, Thailand, th sun on me and very slow moving traffic, so no real air flow....but the 'Pit Putty worked wonders! No problem - that was a true test  :) I will be buying other products from you.  I have also been telling my friends.  I believe my friend Kate (also at an APO address) ordered some deodorant as well after my story.  Thanks again!

Monica, Bangkok, Thailand

Thank you so much for your help in expediting my order.  It arrived today and I am thrilled!!!  You do absolutely have the best lip balms!  I think I am really going to like the lotion stick.  It definitely is different than anything I am used to, but different can be good!  Since I have a toddler, I was able to pick out my Mother's Day gift,  and I now I am looking forward to enjoying everything.

I do have a few questions for you.  I was hoping to find out the scents of the three heart shape soaps.  That way I will know what to reorder in the future.  I also wanted to know if you currently sell some of your holiday gift baskets?  I was thinking of doing the Valentine one for my husband (since he's always my Valentine) because I'm sure he's going to want some of your products once he borrows mine.  I was also wondering if you had the cute Bumble and Bee lip balm retractable cord?  The blue one I got in my kit is great, I just love your adorable logo and was hoping to have one of those as well.

I really appreciate your quick response to my earlier request.  I am really impressed with the service you have provided.  Thank you so much for your help with these questions!  I will definitely be placing another order soon!

My order arrived yesterday and I just wanted to tell you how glad and satisfied I am. Everything is so cute and smell so well!     I fell in love with the Oatmeal soap, the fine scent of cinnamon it´s simply delicious!!! I also wanted to compliment you on your work about the deodorant formula. I never thought that something natural and organic would work for my boyfriend... He tried the Pit Putty deodorant and it was effective!! effective and healthy!!! We were both amazed!!! We will love to buy more from your store again for sure!
 
thank you so much Stephanie!

I just had to let you know how much I love the orange lip balm.  I have actually found a very interesting new use for it... An acne stick!!!  After reading the ingredients, I wondered if the orange oil would dry up my acne, and if the other ingredients would help my skin to heal.  It worked!  I have been using it every day for the last month and a half, and the few pimples that actually come up get dried out in just a day or two, (Instead of lingering for weeks or a month.)  Once the pimple is gone, the red mark goes away in just a few days, instead of hanging around for months.  I use the orange lip balm "on the spot," and for allover treatment, I came up with mixing honey with ginger and applying it all over my face, (except around the eyes) and leaving it on for at least 15 minutes at night.  After this, I apply the orange lipbalm.  This system works as well or better than proactiv used to for me, and without all of the harmful chemicals and fragrances.  Just had to pass it on.

I have also found that the orange lip balm makes a great substitute for neosporin.  I applied it to a hangnail that had gotten infected, and it took away a lot of the pain, and cleared it up in a couple of days, no band-aid or neosporin needed.  Then my dog scratched me accidentally, and it broke the skin and welted up.  I washed the scratch, and then applied the sunflower lotion to the area, followed by the orange lip balm, just on the scratch, and later that day, I found no evidence of the scratch.  Amazing!

I absolutely adore your company.  You will be seeing my name a lot.  I do love the deodorant.  I can't believe it is all natural and works.  Regular deodorant doesn't work on me.  I had to also use an anti perspirant which I didn't feel comfortable doing. So thank you,  thank you for making these products.  You have a customer for life.  Everyone I tell loves the name pit putty.  My two year old walks around the house saying pit putty, pit putty!  I hope your products make it to Whole Foods here in California too.  In the meantime I will just order on line.  Thanks again!

And we love your products so much, I'm trying to convert my entire family!  Amazing stuff.  I feel so much better knowing what is on my skin is so pure, and the difference is noticable.
So, I will be a repeat customer for a long time.  I would love to be able to buy your products in a store.  Will you be carrying them in any stores in Eugene, OR in the near future?  We have so many natural food stores that I'm sure would be thrilled to sell your products.
Thanks for such great products, and outstanding service.  I will continue to spread the word!

I've been trying to switch to natural deodorant for so long, but have never found anything that a) worked and b) didn't make me and my clothes smell like a health food store (not that this so bad--I've worked at many health food stores--but I like smelling super-clean and fresh and not like anything at all). Once I started breastfeeding my children I got even more interested in not putting scary stuff under my arms, right over my lymph nodes! Finally I recently found your products (I think I read about them in a magazine?). I bought one of the older herbal deodorants and also Pit Putty. I haven't tried the herbal one yet because I LOVE Pit Putty. It totally works! I smell clean and fresh all day and when I take off my shirts they smell clean and fresh too! Yahoo! I've started telling all my friends about your products and my husband is going to try Pit Putty as well.

One question and one issue: The label for the Pit Putty is rubbing right off the container. I don't
really care but it's sort of messy. I wonder if you could stamp right on the plastic or something to
eliminate the need for a label altogether? Also, I was wondering if you had a program by which I could send you back the containers and you could refill them when I run out, to reduce plastic consumption? I hope to use your Pit Putty FOREVER but don't need new containers, you know?

Thanks so much for your wonderful product,
Arielle, IL

About two weeks before I bought the belly balm, my husband bought me the coconut lime lotion stick, the orange lip balm, and the truly herbal deodorant. I just wanted to let you know that I love each product! I have had terribly dry skin and cracking, bleeding knuckles all winter, but after just a week of using the lotion stick my hands look normal again! I also started using it on my 21 month old daughter, and she loves it, too. She also likes the orange lip balm, and
I don't feel bad letting her share it with me since I know it is free of harmful chemicals. I think it works better than any lip balm I have tried. I can put it on at night and still feel it on in the morning.

Thanks for making such great products! I know your company is going to do well! Can I buy some stock in it or work for you? :)

Everything arrived today, and I love it all!  The 'pit putty works incredibly well, and smells wonderful!  I need to restrain myself from smelling my armpits!  Ha Ha!  I am really enjoying the lotion stick.  I put it on hours ago, and my arms are still smooth, and I can still feel it on.  The lip balm is the best that I've tried, and the orange smells like a 50 50 bar.  Yum!

Thank you so much, I am so impressed that you decided in this chemical glutted world to come up with these completely organic products.  It truly fills a need with so many of us developing chemical sensitivities.

Thank you again,

As a nurse and a mother with two children still in diapers (I think I wash my hands more than I blink my eyes!) I have to say finally! I have found a lotion for my hands that leaves them healed, not covered in a slippery film and so just love the Sunflower lotion stick.  Not only does it last through several hand washings but it doesn't make my hands itch, a problem with perfumed lotions, and it doesn't leave them so slick that I have to wipe them off before I do anything.  Plus, the stick makes it easy to carry in the pocket of my scrub jacket, or purse, or pocket of my jeans.  I just love it!

This truly is what a personal care product company should look like.  Finally, a company that makes good on the word "Organic" in Organic Chemistry!  Thank you Bubble & Bee for making products that are safe, effective and just down right yummy.  After my first use of the Herbal Deodorant my husband said, "wow, you smell great!" and that was after a day of working up a sweat chasing two young kids.  Stephanie, keep up the good work and I look forward to the products to come.

Hi, Stephanie. I know that you don't sell sunscreens, but with your knowledge I'm wondering if you could point me in the right direction to products that would be safer for me and my family (husband and 16 month old)...do you have any recommended brands or online resources that might help me? By the way, I purchase the herbal deodorant and karma apple lip balm and love them. So does my son...he's loves sniffing the deodorant and rubbing the balm on his chin!

I am so thrilled that Stephanie and Steve introduced me to their amazing organic products. Everything I've tried; lip balm, deodorant, lemon poppyseed soap, body balm are fabulous but my absolute favorite is the Vanilla Mint Salt Scrub. Having tried various brands of salt scrubs, masquerading as "natural" I was pleasantly surprised by the effectiveness of this truly organic salt scrub that lathers as it exfoliates and smells terrific. An added bonus...it leaves NO oily residue on the skin. I'm a fan for life!

By the way you are a GENIUS!!!  The pit putty is AWESOME!  I woke up this morning dry as a bone and smelling like a girl again instead of a boys locker room.  Thank you so much!  I want more for sure!!!

I think the pit putty is alot better than the other deodorants.  I like the bath gel.  I think I used 1/4 of the bottle the first night because I love limes.

My order just arrived last night- already I'm very pleased...

the lip balm is amazing! i got the organic orange- love the smell. i put it on before bed, and when i woke up, my lips didn't have a yucky film over them like they always did with burt's bees lipbalm. i'm sold!

the coconut lime lotion stick is great! the smell is yummy- and it doesn't burn my nose like "fragrances" from other lotions. being a "slather on tons of lotion" kind of girl, i'm getting used to the "less is better" format of the stick. it leaves my hands moisturized, but not gooey, and with a wonderful tingly feeling.

i also got the deodorant- but it's still too soon for me to tell if it's working. because i'm mostly a vegetarian as it is, it takes a lot for me to get "whiffy" :-) but i love the deodorant smell, and it goes on smoothly without being sticky.

Thanks so much for your wonderful service and products! I will definitely buy from you again!!!

Ok - I am now going to rave about the lotion bar and the lavender chamomile soap (plus the sisal bag - great combo).  I get horribly dry, cracked fingers and the lotion bar (I've tried both) is FANTASTIC!!!!

I am absolutely in love with it.  I smelled yummy, but not overwhelmingly scented (I have issues with things that have too much fragrance).

Neither of my pals who I gave the gifts to had anything but compliments for all the products - so 3 cheers for Bubble and Bee, may I have a good hand in helping your business to grow and prosper!

Thank you for all of the wonderful information.  I have only just begun researching the organic world.  I recently ordered from you and I LOVE my products.  The deodorant is definitely working, although it is hard to get used to being a little sweaty sometimes.  I tried an organic deodorant from the grocery store and it left me feeling very stick, yours does not.  I also can't get enough of the soap and especially, the raspberry lemonade salt scrub.  I cannot say enough good things about your line.  The packaging is also to die for, too cute!

Hey guys! Just wanted to say that I LOVE the coconut-lime lotion stick... I'm starting to think I'm addicted to it. I used to use the Burt's Bees banana hand creme for serious lotioning, but it is too greasy and cloyingly smelly, and really does not even hold a candle to your product. Your lotion stick is creamy, smooth, and has a purely natural scent. The same thing goes for the lip balms. Sometimes I'll misplace one of your lip balms and end up having to use a Burt's Bees out of desperation... it's not fun, and to be honest, I get kind of upset until I find the Karma Apple that I lost. I want to tell everyone how much better your lip balm is! Anyway, THANK YOU for going to such great lengths to create such pure, quality products that are so good for our bodies and for the environment.

The products I ordered are great. The deodorant is working like a charm. I am so glad that I have found an organic alternative to "regular" poisonous deodorant. The lotion stick is wonderful, moisturizing but not greasy. The lip balm keeps my lips soft and moist. Thank you for having products that work great and that I can feel safe using.

It's so nice (and so rare) to get personal service these days! Thank you!

So far, the deodorant is working great. I love the way the lemongrass/rosemary spray smells, and both work wonderfully. I'll be sure to spread the word about your great products!

Love the lip balms!  They go on like silk - and stay on!

And the lotion bar and stick are great!  In this dry environment, especially in the winter, my hands get so dry and chapped that they crack and bleed, because the different lotions that I've used don't stay on.  (Lots of diaper changes = lots of hand washing + doing dishes, it makes for dry, rough hands.)  But with the lotion bar and stick --- a totally different story.  I can even wash my hands a couple of times without the need to apply more!  Finally, my hands are soft and all the cracks have healed in just the short amount of time that I've been using these products.

I love the beeswax candle!  I think I told you before that I was using Beanpod (soy) candles.  But the scent was too strong and I couldn't have it lit for too long.  The beeswax candle scent is so mellow - never overpowering.  Love it!  And (like I said before) I had no idea that beeswax candles actually clean the air - awesome!

I've been using the Lemongrass Rosemary stick deodorant for the past 4 days.  All I can say is that it's definitely a keeper, the first natural deodorant that actually works on me, and I've tried many.  I was truly getting desperate, thinking that I was permanently bound to using 'Secret'.   Thanks!

The speedy-shipping force must be with you. Even using regular ground, my soaps arrived today, and I have to say, having just emerged from the shower, that they are the best soaps ever! (At least that's my impression of the lemongrass-ginger one. I did only use one soap in the shower ;) )

In any case, thanks so much!

We are REALLY enjoying our new products form BUBBLE AND BEE. The lip balms are SOOO different than ordinary ones--very emollient and long lasting. The deodorant is holding up nicely. All the products reminded me of the lovely smell in special health food shops (the ones I miss from London). It has not been easy getting nice organic food here in Indiana, but finding your things has made it simpler in the personal care way. I'm going to try some more stuff soon...Thank you for your personal touch.

I LOVE your vanilla mint scrub! It is the most tingley awesome scrub I have ever tried! I love to use it in my hot tub to keep me cool and make my skin super soft. I am also addicted to the mocha mint chapstick! At first I thought organic body products weren’t any different, but after thinking about all of those yucky chemicals I have been using for years…organic is the way to go! Thanks Bubble and Bee!

Hi Stephanie, I just wanted to thank you for the thank you cards you sent out, it is appreciated. In a world consumed by profit and large corporations bordering on monopolies, I respect and support you company. Not because you are a small independent company, but because your products actually work- they're organic, natural, and without the chemicals every other company is trying to brainwash into thinking they're actually good for us. Thank you for demanding better skincare and such. I love your products and will continue to use them. The organic deodorant is spectacular because it both works and smells yummy, and the lip balm is my new best friend on these cold autumn days and when I just need a pick-me-up. I recently ordered some shower gel, and I'm sure it will be just as awesome. I'll continue to grab up these wonderful products until I've tried the whole line. Thanks for taking the time to show gratitude to your customers- the company is sure to exceed all expectations. Happy holidays!

My wife has always been interested in being as organic as possible and so we were very excited to find you at the farmers market several months ago. We of course bought several of your products and have been very pleased with them. I especially like the deoderant as I have tried many other "natural/organic" brands but have not been satisfied. They don't seems to get rid "my smell". Your deoderant did!! And then there is the lip balm. I have always been suspicious as to why lip balm/chapstick only seems to sooth your chapped lips for a short time and then you have to continue to use it. They seem to be addictive and require continual use instead of curing the problem.  Stephanie was very helpful in explaining why most brands do exactly that but why your lip balm is different.  I was still dubious as to wether it would work but with the free sample you gave me I was convinced. I used is for one day and haven't had to use it since. My wife has drier skin and only has to use it periodically as her skin gets dry. We were amazed. My wife and I wanted to thank you for your efforts and look forward to all of the new products you are developing, espcially the shampoo's. Keep up the good work.

Hi,
I just wanted to send an e-mail to say how happy I was with my order.  I loved the soap and lip balm! The bath salts are for my mom and I'm sure she will love them (they smell great). All the packaging is so adorable!! Mostly I appreciate the extra effort you made when the promo code did not work. This was so personalized and much appreciated. Will spread the word...

Best of luck,

Hi,
We bought some of your wonderful soaps 3 weeks ago at the Pioneer Park Farmer's Market. Love them. I took my sister yesterday to get her some and more for me., but didn't see your stand. I thought I'd buy some online, but the 3 for $14 isn't availble online. Is the Farmer's Market the only place to buy in bulk and get a discount? Are you going to be back at the Market?

Thanks,
Julie

i bought a whole bunch of stuff from you this past saturday and just wanted to say THANKS!  your shower gel has a beautiful scent, i'm using your lip balm like mad, and every time i'm in the bathroom i have to smell your soap.  my husband loves it too.  i'm especially impressed with the deodorant.  i have been looking for a "natural" deodorant for a long time that actually works and yours does!  and amazingly without chemicals; so many of the "natural" brands still include parabens or something else nasty.  thanks so much; i think i'll buy all of my bath goodies from you from now on!  i'll see you again this saturday!  :)

Hi-  I bought your Sunflower Organic Lotion Bar a couple of weeks ago
and I just wanted to let you know that I really love it.  As a recent
East Coast transplant I am not used to the dry air of Salt Lake City,
but your lotion bar makes it easy to take care of my dry and cracked
feet and hands!  I bought your shower gel today and can't wait to try
that too!
Thank you so much for this product.

Hi,
A friend gave me some of your lip balm. It's terrific. Tantalizing scent and goes on smo-o-o-thly. Thanks for the great product. I look forward to trying your other items, plus, your packaging design is creatively friendly. Good luck growing your company.

My mom LOVES the poppyseed soap, especially the smell and that it's a great exfoliant. I like the orange lip balm, and I haven't tried the mint one you gave me. Thanks for that, by the way. Also, I told you that the deodorant is fantastic. I put it on before I went to the market, and after I walked home, I seemed to sweat everywhere except for the 'ol armpits. I think it's a keeper. {...}

I think your booth at the farmer's market is a godsend, and I will see you soon! I can't wait to stock up on Christmas presents.

Thank you,

The balm is very nice; goes on smooth and the initial orange flavor is pleasant.

I purchased your deodorant for my husband to try.  He was pleased with the results; felt the deodorant did a good job!

I'm curious about your shower gels.  How many ounces are contained in a bottle?  They all sound wonderful!

Thank you again!
