What a delightful store! Upon entering I immediately fell in love with the wonderful scents…read moreemanating from every corner and the beautiful design of the shop. What a find!
Make & Mary focuses on whole plant wellness with every oil, soap, candle, lotion, hand sanitizer made in house (shop is right behind the curtain!) with organic, ethically grown and wild botanicals. They use a full spectrum of hemp extract in their wellness products to reduce inflammation, support cell rejuvenation and sooth and hydrate skin. The oils feel divine, my skin was so soft!
The natural botanicals truly make a difference! Typically if I walk into a boutique that has lots of scented soaps and candles, it overwhelms me within a minute, causing a headache and I have to walk out. Not at Make & Mary! My visit was at least 30 minutes and I just kept falling more and more in love with the scents.
Today I purchased a Face and Body Serum with yummy scents of rose geranium, lavender, frankincense, sage and other botanicals. After sampling, I loved the way it made my skin feel and the scent. I'm in a pool 2 hours a day so I need a serum that replenishes moisture and provides a scent that masks the chlorine!
Since we are all washing our hands several times a day, I picked up their scented, moisturizing sanitizer. The small spray bottle fits easily in my purse so I can use it in the go. Not only did it my hands germ free, it moisturized and left them smelling divine!
In addition to the lotions, soaps, bath bombs, candles and such, they also have a small but beautiful selection of indoor houseplants, a few gorgeous throws weaved from natural fibers, books and tarot cards, and even some clothing. The collection of dusters made from recycled kimonos we're stunning and that make a statement anytime you wore one. Artsy and fun! I'm still debating getting one.
Everything in the store has been made or curated from women owned businesses; items chosen to inspire one to live their best life, to take care of your body, heart and soul - total wellness. The owner, Yvonne, embodies all of this and her exuberance shines. I'm so happy that I randomly stopped here on my way to Dava Beads next door. I will definitely be back to shop and participate in their many workshops that focus on making items and connection with like minded participants.
Support this local, woman owned, Latino business. Not because it's local, woman owned and Latino but because everything within the shop is high quality, well made and good for your body and soul!
