Haus of Gloi Birthday

Recently, Haus of Gloi celebrated their seventh birthday. To mark the occasion, they came out with a collection of scents that all have Haus Amber as their base. For whatever reason, I'd never gotten around to trying Haus Amber, but I'd heard good things about it. I hadn't made an HoG order in awhile and I decided to treat myself to one of the 7 Birthday Ambers, a sample of Haus Amber to compare it too, and while I was at it, I picked up the only thing I was interested in from the Spring release, A Place In Space.

Kheimistrii

Kheimistrii is a newish bath and body shop on Etsy.  It'd been on my radar for a little while, but I finally decided to take the plunge during her big New Year's sale.  It's a good thing I waited for the sale because I ended up hauling quite a bit.  I settled on a bar of the Ginger Glace Handmade soap and 2 oz samples of the Whip'd Body Wash in Sleepy Hollow, the Macademia Body Souffle in Dreamcatcher, the Sugar Exfoliant in Cimmerian, and the Body Butter Cream and Bubbling Scrub in Ultra Violet.  I also received a free sample of perfume oil in Kyoto.  


All my goodies, fresh out the box


Kheimistrii shipped lightening fast.  After several days worth of dithering over sizes and types of lotion, I placed my order on January 10th, and it showed up on my doorstep on the 15th.  The shipping costs were pretty reasonable too: she uses USPS Flat rate packaging.  Orders that fit into a padded envelope or small box are $5.95 and medium is $10.
