<p>I first discovered Tamara&#8217;s shop when I was doing a search for handmade shampoo. At the time, she didn&#8217;t have any shampoo listed in her shop (<a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11642950">she does now!</a>) but she did have a hair treatment called Hair Therapy, that comes in special formulations for blondes and brunettes/redheads, as well as a basic one, which I bookmarked to buy later.</p>

<p>I first discovered Tamara&#8217;s shop when I was doing a search for handmade shampoo. At the time, she didn&#8217;t have any shampoo listed in her shop (<a href="http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=11642950">she does now!</a>) but she did have a hair treatment called Hair Therapy, that comes in special formulations for blondes and brunettes/redheads, as well as a basic one, which I bookmarked to buy later.</p>
<p>Right after that I put in an <a href="http://www.etsy.com/alchemy/">Alchemy</a> request for a facial scrub/cleanser and moisturizer for my very particular needs. I have a skin condition called seborrheic dermatitis, which is caused by an allergy to a specific yeast/fungus that normally lives on everybody&#8217;s skin. My skin can be very oily and very irritated and flaky, all at the same time, if I don&#8217;t treat it well.</p>
<p>Tamara was one of the many great people who responded, and one of the four whose bids I accepted. She sent me some information about her Blooming Beauty Toner. I have never been able to use toners in the past, but she explained that it was gentle, healing, and actually moisturizing. I honestly had my doubts about it, but because Tamara offers samples of most of her products, I decided to order samples of the toner and the hair treatment I&#8217;d been eyeing.</p>

<p>I was completely amazed at the quality of the products I received. The toner lived up to everything I&#8217;ve been told, and my skin is so much healthier since using it. I have only gotten a chance to use the hair treatment once (The first thing that falls by the wayside when I have too much on my plate is finding time to take care of myself, and although I have adapted my schedule to make time for my skin, my hair hasn&#8217;t been so fortunate as of yet.) but I really enjoyed the experience of using it and it did seem to improve my hair.</p>
<p>Since that first happy purchase I have also ordered some different body scrubs and bath salts as Mother&#8217;s Day gifts. Tamara continued her excellent customer service with this order, and kindly added a gift note for me. My relatives loved the package they received, but I haven&#8217;t gotten a chance yet to find out if they&#8217;ve used the products!</p>
<p>Alas, my supply of toner is rapidly dwindling, and so I am now trying to decide what I will throw in with my next order! Here are a couple things I definitely have my eye on:</p>
