Holy Moly you weren’t kidding when you said this stuff is concentrated, I used too much to begin with felt like a chip butty sandwich lol but used only a small amount next time and goes on a treat and you really do only need a small amount each time soaks in lovely and has left my skin so moisturised it’s unbelievable.
I have been wet shaving for … ah, it must be over 50 years. Given that I have Acute Impulsive Shaving Kit Purchase syndrome, I have tried a few gazillion shaving soaps over the last few hundred years, many of which are good, some of which are very good. But this Bentonite Clay shaving soap, with my preferred scents, is one of the best three shaving soaps I have ever encountered. The other two are no longer available, which makes this a remarkable, precious, wonderful shaving soap. If you are a male of the species and wet shave, you should try it. I can make no recommendation for whatever women do with shaving soap because I wouldn’t know (and probably don’t want to know, being of an innocent nature), but for the male beard, this is just outstanding.
As a body butter it’s spot on, works exactly as it should, only thing I found a little off-putting was it was quite hard, harder than other body butters I’ve tried, this could probably be because it’s not full of other stuff to soften it right enough but even at that I found I had to rub my finger over the butter whilst it was still in the tin to get it to soften up and then apply it but it does melt really well when on the skin. I would probably buy it again as it does work great as a body butter but might just a while to get used to it being quite hard from the tin 🙂
Bought this for my partner and she absolutely loves the idea of the alcohol free and loved the scent as well, although she did say it was one of those fragrances that works on you, at first it’s a bit like “hmmm” but then after a short while the fragrance does seem to burst through, it’s like a swarm of fragrance comes every now and again, this could probably be just purely because of the essential oils and non alcohol as we’ve never tried anything like this before, certainly not unpleasant at all, really nice actually, but very different from what we were used to. The only reason I’ve knocked a star off was the bottle, the spray does seem to be a bit wide as though it’s more suited to a body spray rather than a perfume, my partner did use the spray closer to her neck, and did press lighter than before and this did seem to work better but she did say the bottle wasn’t a 5 out of 5 although the fragrance was, so we did decide to knock off a star, otherwise a lovely fragrance and a fantastic idea of using essential oils and no alcohol, if a wide spray is your thing I’d highly recommend it.
Great idea, a friend recommended your site but I didn’t have any idea what to order for my wife so got her a gift card as a surprise for the new year and she was well impressed by the selection of products available, we both went vegan a few years ago and great to find a site with such choice, ethics and sustainable ingredients.
This is amazing – I have used it with a few different scents now and always am happy with it. So good! The baby powder scent remains my favourite of these!
Although I’m a customer of TillyOak I hadn’t seen these fragrance sprays but a friend who I converted to Tilly bought this for me for Christmas and I have to say I was blown away when I saw it was TillyOak producing them, alcohol free as well and the smell is absolutely stunning, very like something I’ve smelled before but I can’t put my finger on it, and it is beautifully sweet but not overly to the point where it’s sickening, but more refreshing than anything. Although it says you can use on the hair I’ve not tried this yet and simply use it as a perfume more than anything and my daughter commented on it too and she’s into the bigger names of scents but I didn’t even think about what was in perfume and now the thought of spraying alcohol on your skin makes me cringe, especially when it’s possible to have a quality product like this which is even cheaper than most perfumes!. Yet another fantastic idea and product from these guys, you know I’m converted but I’ll make it my mission to convert even more people where possible.
So pleased with my gift set, came earlier than expected and exactly as described, a fantastic way to try a few different products at once and all have been great so I ordered another few for Christmas gifts and really excited to see my family change to these eco friendly products
This stuff really works!! Wasn’t too sure at first because the texture was slightly different that I was used to, other body butters I’ve used before were a bit softer but this one was quite hard to the touch but the second I applied it to my skin it melted like, well, BUTTER lol. Went on a dream, soaked in lovely and after a little massaging it truly did leave my skin lovely and soft and wasn’t greasy, unlike other body butters I’ve tried. Great product and already ordered the big tin for myself and mum for Christmas as she’s got dry skin too and was never able to find a product that worked well for her.

The best conditioner I have ever used – lasts ages, great with my hair (which is very long so needs it!) and smells really good. Thank you!
