Divine Caroline :: Style Reviews ....
Angel Face Botanicals produces one of my favorite shower products, shower steamers, so I wasn’t surprised that Jessica, the SpaGoddess at Angel Face Botanicals, has produced a winner with her Mint Tonic Body Scrub. Concocted from a luscious blend of peppermint and spearmint with a dash of eucalyptus and French lavender, the smell is invigorating and energizing without being overpowering. The mix of oils is just right too, not too oily or harsh....

 Le Parfumeur Rebelle
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.
Angel Face excels at powdered facial cleansers. Jessica makes three different Organic Facial Cleansing Grains: Ambrosia, Ayurvedic and Adzuki & Green Tea, and they are all just perfect... Just the right amount of scrubbiness. I could not decide which of these I liked best~ theyre all so good!... All three come highly recommended.
Lose yourself in Angel Face Botanicals for a while~ its treat after treat, after yummy
treat.
 5 Ways to Relax and Warm Up After a Cold Winter Day:
Theres something really satisfying about warming up and unwinding...
Peppermint shower steamers are seriously little balls of absolute heaven, especially when you dont have time to take a bath. You just place one on your shower floor just outside the stream of water and it slowly releases a relaxing minty aroma. Perfect for when you want some quick pampering or when you feel like youre getting sick. (They also come in lavender, citrus.... and eucalyptus scents!)
Scented Luxuries
If youre not a soaking fan, but still love bath products, you may share my current obsession: shower steamers. Pop one of these in the corner of your shower and in no time, youll have a cloud of fragrant steam enveloping you. I really like Angel Face Botanicals shower steamers, which come in peppermint, lavender (my favorite), eucalyptus, and citrus.... These easily last through two good showers and are beautifully packaged.
 Minneapolis Picks: Since the onset of summer weve been lounging lakeside from dawn to dusk, leaving our sun-kissed skin craving a little extra TLC. Enter Angel Face Botanicals.
This irresistible bath & beauty purveyor masterfully mixes up a variety of indulgent treats, from relaxing herbal washes to shower steamers. Our pick for pampering? The Rock Star Detox, an ultra-luxe detoxifying body scrub that gently exfoliates and draws out toxins and pollutants for wildy smooth skin that begs to be caressed.
Interview with Sarah Irani of EcoSalon.com:
Do you consider yourself more of an artist or a businesswoman?
Jessica Ress: Artist for sure. Without the artistry in what I do, I would simply not be happy. Art runs deep in my family and each of us brings unique botanical edge to our work. It is infinitely rewarding to use botanicals as my palate. I collaborate with the plants and natural materials to create an interactive experiential art form.
