The simplest things are the nicest. And in the name of simplicity, I am reviewing one of the simplest products I know, which is also a pleasure to use. This head to toe (Lavender) body oil is a superb moisturizer with the soothing scent of lavender to make it perfect to apply at bedtime after a bath and soak in a warm tub.

Dear Vienna,

While placing this latest order I got to thinking about how long I've been using your products. I think I've been a faithful customer for about five years now. I'd like this opportunity to tell others about my favorite compounds.

I have thick, unusually curly hair. I wear it shoulder length or longer. I've always battled with dryness and the dreaded "frizzies." I've experimented for years with ethnic beauty products and hair oils, but have ended up with "crunchiness" and poor styling.

Your Hair Dressing and Conditioner has been the solution to my hair control problems. First, it eliminates dryness and frizz, and can be used without applying other styling products. Second, I can apply any mousse or gel (particularly made for curly hair) with no fear of greasing up or oiliness. My scalp and hairline never get greasy. My ends stay beautifully soft. I get terrific styling and control I don't experience otherwise. A happy side effect of applying the conditioner is the wonderful moisturizing of my fingers and hands.

Recently, I've tried another product that has become a favorite. Your Lavender Crème is fantastic! It's not greasy and absorbs into my skin quickly, but lasts. Of course, the subtle lavender fragrance is soothing in the transition from bed and shower to car and work.

Thank you, Vienna, for your skill and creativity in creating and offering your gentle but effective compounds.

With love,
Karen W.

Three years ago I was waiting for surgery on my knee, I had strained an artery and had enlarged bones with spurs on because of arthritis. The pain was almost unbearable. On this particular evening I had taken different kinds of pain medication and rubbed with 3 different kinds of rubbing compounds with no results. The pain kept me awake and sent me to the bathroom in the middle of the night yet again in search of relief. I saw a bottle of Lavender Oil from my daughter Vienna which did not say that it was for pain, but in desperation I said to myself 'I may as well try this' so I rubbed it onto my throbbing knee. I headed back to my bedroom and to my amazement the pain had gone by the time I got into bed. I wanted to call Vienna immediately to tell her of the relief I had gotten from the Lavender Oil but since it was 3 o'clock in the morning, I decided I had better wait. I actually slept! Very excited, I called the next morning to tell her that the Lavender Oil was a GREAT pain reliever. I have been using it ever since and will not be without it. It really works for all aching parts of the body.
