I ordered:
8 cream soaps
8 Goat milk & shea lotion
16 Body frostings
4oz Hair and body mist (Lily of the Valley)

All the scents are lovely, the big standouts are:
- Vanilla apricot (very light scent but amazing)
- Grapefruit blossom
- Lemon marshmallow souffle (OMG this is sooooo nice!)
- Maui Sunrise
- Thai Coconut (absolutely lovely!)
- Mango lassi

She sent some lovely extras along too! A try me sized Body butter in "Sugared Fairy dust" scent
2oz of succulent skin in "Heather" scent
A perfume sample of "The story of your life"
and a Buttermilk & honey shea butter soap sample!

First my tart melter and tarts yesterday and today this! Feels like Xmas! :)

This company is on my list to try. I really like their scent list.
Maui Sunrise is a great scent. I still have a bit of the body cream left from Magic Hands Workshop, so I am super happy Herb Garden now has this one.
Is Grapefruit Blossom a fruity floral, or do you mostly smell the grapefruit?
Nice pictures !

I was extremely pleased with my transaction with HGC. CS was fantastic and the products and scents are a big hit so far. A+ grade overall. I completely understand the fuss over Maui Sunrise, it is a lovely scent one of the best for sure. Grapefruit blossom was another pleasant surprise in that it's a nice blend of fruit and floral, a smidge more on the floral side than grapefruit.

Beautiful order. Thai Coconut. I love summertime scents. How is the texture of the cream soaps? Is it a whipped cream consistency or a more dense, scoopable type?

I haven't tried it yet but it seems to be the dense scoopable side. It looks whipped but not super fluffy light. Hope this helps!

The Lemon marshmallow souffle is a must try if you're into lemon scents. It's such a lovely light scent, you can clearly pick up on both the lemon and marshmallow. This scent really surprised me, I will definitely be ordering a larger format in this soon.

If you're into citrus scents, you can't skip Maui Sunrise. This was another pleasant surprise in the bunch, a lovely mix of citrus and floral. Grapefruit blossom is another pretty scent from HGC.

The hardest thing when ordering here is narrowing down the scent list lol!!!
