Elka Herbals Customer Testimonials:

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I purchased the CBD Pain Ease Body Butter from Erica because I believe in her high quality ingredients. Both my husband and I have chronic pain and this rub has been an absolute God send. Some of the rubs we’ve purchased in the past don’t have the right consistency to actually massage into the sore joints and muscles, Erica’s rub is perfect. It doesn’t clump or liquify. It penetrates into the skin and you can feel it’s healing powers instantly. I have even noticed that it helps with inflammation and swollen areas. A little goes a long way. We’ve already used the product pretty frequently over the last month or so and we still have over 3/4 left in the jar. These cold, wet days and nights really have my body aching. I’m so happy we found this product. We highly recommend. You won’t be disappointed.

The Lavender Geranium Sea Scrub is my absolute favorite skincare product in the whole world. My initial impression was that as a scrub it was going to be both too rough and too oily, but the result ended up being just clean, soft, elastic skin that you just want to touch and smell all the time.
Another fantastic product is the Rose Immortelle Facial Serum. Although not its primary purpose, it worked wonders on a particularly unsightly dark scar I had on my forearm (bad enough that I wore long sleeves). It’s not 100% gone, and I don’t expect it to ever be, but it has just magically faded and gotten so much better.
I don’t know whether it’s the ingredients, the recipes, the craft or what, but Elka Herbals products have made almost everything else in my bathroom pale (and smell artificial!) in comparison.

I bought my first Elka products from you at a craft fair in Montclair Village in Oakland, CA. As a woman in her mid-50s, I am always on the hunt for high quality, natural skin care products that will replenish the oils my body so craves. Your Lavender Geranium Sea Scrub makes my entire body gloriously soft. I had been purchasing raw unrefined shea butter for my skin because I could never find a product that would moisturize my skin better, until I discovered your Lavender Body Butter. It’s the perfect mixture of unrefined shea butter and other oils for a smooth and creamy mixture that bathes and relieves my dry skin. I sound like a commercial don’t I? But I LOVE YOUR PRODUCTS!! And I have used a lot of skin products in my day.

As a registered nurse, I’m cautious about using pain pills. I’m so pleased to have discovered Elka Herbals’ CBD body butter. It applies smoothly, feels luscious, and helps mitigate many of my aches and pains. It’s quite consistent. Work has been especially grueling since Covid and this has a good support. 3 of my co-workers are using it too!

I have always been a minimalist when it comes to skin care products, but I could never find quite the right thing to use on my face, until I found Elka Herbals’ Healthy Aging Facial Serum. Even the name of this product makes me happy every time I use it, reminding me to embrace the natural process of my aging as beautiful. I routinely put this on my face every time I get out of the shower, and am nourished on so many levels. I love the smell and the way it soaks in and and moisturizes me without ever feeling too oily. I never get those annoying dry patches around my nose anymore. I also love knowing how much love and care was put into this handmade product, from the thoughtful sourcing of ethical high quality ingredients, to the beautiful art on the packaging. This is a seriously unique and wonderful product that is worth every penny. I am now on my second bottle, and totally hooked.

Hi Elka Team, My friend turned me onto your body butter. Well, okay, I borrowed some without asking and then had to ask because it was so awesome :) As someone who constantly experiences second day razor burn on my thighs I have been looking for a product that would keep my legs moisturized for longer than an hour! Day four, no razor burn in site and my legs feel amazing :) Thank you for creating this product for humans everywhere!!

I recently tried Elka Herbals CBD Lavender Body Butter and it’s been so helpful! Each time I’ve applied this to any aches I’ve definitely noticed a considerable difference. The last time I used it I had pulled something in my back and couldn’t bend without pain. I applied a good portion of it and after about 10-15 minutes it felt like someone had massaged the area, my muscles began to relax, there was a softening to the edges of the pain and considerable pain relief. I also applied it to my lower belly when I had bad menstrual pains and experienced the same soothing and relief. Thank you so much Erica!

I have tennis elbow and the CBD body butter has really alleviated my symptoms. I do notice a difference when I forget to use it for a day. The lavender smell is pleasant and not overbearing. I will be getting more for my shoulder and knee. I can’t wait to try the other smells!

I met you at the Fairgrounds Saturday after Thanksgiving. I bought a Lemon Coconut Sea Scrub. This is the best stuff I have ever used on my hands! I’m so glad I found your website. I tell the women in my office (I’m the only guy) about your products. Hopefully they start to purchase some soon.

My daughter has given me a couple of Elka Herbals products and they are awesome!!!! I use the body butter to stop my fingers in the winter from cracking and it is the only product that works. I am now trying the facial serum for my face and it works beautifully. I have very dry skin and this is restoring moisture to make my skin more elastic and glowing. I highly recommend these products.

I just received my Sea Scrub & am thrilled. I have such dry skin that I have not been able to use soap on my skin, except for hands and feet, since I was in my 20’s. At age 74 I have used the Elka Herbals Dead Sea Scrub for 3 years & my skin is so soft that even my Dermatologists have asked “how do you keep your skin so soft?” I am presently going through some health problems & having blood drawn every 2 weeks. I cannot tell you how many people have asked about my soft skin. I think I have probably the softest wrinkles in town. Tee Hee! Hip! Hip! Hurrah! for Elka Herbals!

I had gotten a rash on both arms this past Spring after having a manicure in a salon. After the rash healed up my skin was so dry and sensitive. I came to your booth at the Mountain View art fair and the woman in your booth noticed my dry skin right away. She convinced me to try the Luscious Lavender Body Butter and I bought a small tin. I’m glad I did! I kept it in my purse and used it often. I enjoy the scent and how much better my skin looked and felt. It was very helpful in my full recovery from the rash. Thank you!

I have met you at the Montclair Fair in Oakland and have bought the Lavender body butter from you. When I have run out, I have bought other products, and honestly, they aren’t as good as yours. I love that your body butter stays smooth until the bottom of the can and doesn’t get lumpy like some other products. And, that it isn’t greasy.

I bought some of your body butter at the Nevada City Craft Fair. I LOVE IT! It actually feels like it penetrates my skin rather than a slimy layer on top. Within a few days I was soft and those little bumps were gone.

I love my Elka Herbals Sea Salt Scrub, in fact, I consider it spiritual medicine for my body. I’m quite empathic and tend to “pick up” energies from others. When I use the Body Scrub, my skin not only feels great, but I feel energetically refreshed and cleansed as well. Consider it auric maintenance that leaves your skin beautifully soft!

I’m obsessed with this Rose Immortelle Serum. I actually feel like I’m doing something wonderful for myself. Love the feel, the scent, everything!

I’ve been buying Elka Herbals Body Butter for going on three years. Best beard softener ever. I’ve tried lotions and other products sold as beard conditioners. The balance of creamy lotion and oils is just so that it is not too much of either. Most of the beard conditioners I tried were too much on the oily side. The fragrance is very light and only lingers about 30 minutes.

I met you at Victorian Christmas, our local Nevada City winter fair. I purchased multiple Let it Bee Lip & Cuticle Balms. It is THE BEST & I have very dry lips. I look forward to trying more of your products.
