I love the Blank Canvas series! For the conditioner, I went a little ham with the cozy lion vibes (Golden Sol II and Son of Apollo powder, plus Regulus oil and Lion’s Purr perfume). It smells divine and hydrates like a dream. Even without the materia and scent, it would be great for use during pregnancy (or for anyone looking for great, clean unscented hair care).

I did have a question about how to open the bottle at first. (I tried unscrewing the white part of the cap, when you only need to unscrew the clear one.) Rookie mistake, and it did leak a bit at the base of the white cap at first, but once I screwed that bottom cap in a bit more, it stopped leaking. Also, the bottles are delightfully squishy to help mix the materia up…

This is what I was looking for during my first pregnancy (and I plan on using it during my second, fingers crossed!). On its own, it’s wonderfully clean and fresh, although I added Golden Sol II and Son of Apollo to mine and love the glowy effects (still gentle enough to use before bed!). I plan on coming back to make an Exalted Luna shampoo as well. The sky’s the limit…

Such a lovely, warm, enticing scent. "Rising and shining" is listed among its many uses and applying it in the morning has significantly helped in keeping my energy levels up throughout the day, regardless of how I slept the night before. There's no burnout or crash at the end of the day either! The Golden Titan anointing oil has also been so useful in reminding and motivating me to stick with my health and fitness goals. Thank you S+S!

The spell soap works differently for me than the oil/incense. The latter shine when there's a specific problem that needs to be solved while the soap works as road opener in general even when i don't give it a specific mission. I adore the minty smell of both.

It's funny when I where this at work I feel I get many jounior team members asking me for guidance. Other solar work tends to the relationship with bosses to the forefront. I was not expecting the effects in dynamics with thoughs that I sometimes play a mentorship roll.

When updating or communicating with the bosses I often feel some anxiety. When preparing deliverables for the higher ups this helps remove the anxiety and second guessing. I am much more equipped to handle question and more prepared to manage up!

It's the first S+S soap I've used, and I'm really glad I tried it, even though it's not the first Asclepius item in my practice. All of them have been really good to my health, both physical and spiritual. They're all very purifiying, but the soap takes it to a next level of cleansing. I've used it a lot after an accident that left me with wounds, and it's helped with the cicatrization and feeling better. It's also really good after having to deal with dense energies or feeling a little sick or in pain. Love the scent too !

The smell have been very surprising to me, very different from the other perfumes from the series I got to try : much more like a "classical perfume" (hard to describe), with a strong scent. But ! It has also arrived right on the moment I needed it a lot (I had a bike accident), and it truly helps when not in good shape, not in good health. Combined with Asclepius water & oil, Exalted Luna salve, and Capricorn II salve and kolonia, it's a perfect combo to sustain health, ease pain, protect and strengthen the body, feel better.

first time using the base series (tried eirene before and suited my sister better). Kolonia, oil and bb. LOVE! the elven vibes were so serious, I took a selfie and laughed out loud like 'who is this!!'. very light and fun to wear, nice way to harness the traditional venus vibes 🙂

I have used this salve a lot when I had low back pain for like a month... and it helped feeling better, ease the pain, having more capacity to use my body even when in pain, and to go for walks. It has also helped me a lot when I needed to go biking, walking long walks, or for other aches in the body. It's very much grounding, it feels reinforcing, revigorating, protecting. So yes, everything said in the description feels very accurate to me !

It's the first time I'm using kolonía, and I'm really glad I did try it. I love the soft blue color, it's absolutely refreshing, immediately leaving with a feeling of purification, feeling of being lighter, but also more grounded. The scent is really nice and fresh too. When I've been feeling like under great pressure, as if gravity was too much, this have helped me a lot (I wouldn't think wearing more Saturn would apease Saturnian feelings, but here we are !). It helps being more functional when we feel like nope nope going back to bed, zero energy.

I have 4 of the Exalted Sol perfumes, and Splendent Joy is definitely my favorite scent : warm, comforting, yummy. A sort of a sweet loving caring facet of the Sun, that have the power to uplift you even when six feet under. It has been such a treasure and a life-saving item in times of anxiety and depression and despair. Trully brings splendent joy ! It might be one of my favorite items from the whole shop, and I'm so glad it exists, thank you.

There is a great comfort in this serie, something grounding to the body, to the home, to reality, to the needs, to the feels, to matter, to water. It's like a warm cuddle, a gentle push towards what is really needed, to the things my Virgo Moon tends to put in boxes and forget to tend to. From Exalted Luna, I have used the tincture, one of the perfume, the steep+smoke herbal mix, the oil and the salve, and each of these items have been so helpful and pleasant. The salve helps to ease the tensions and pain and discomfort in the body, and it's also a good support when in emotional distress or need for sleep. It also smells nice !

Most of the items from Venus' series are not very recommended for me, but this one have been, and I'm very glad because it's a good match. First of all, I love the scent, mostly lavander. I tend to apply it when I'm travelling to see friends and family, because travel can be overwhelming and also having a richer social life than usual. It facilitates conversations, contact, enjoying each other, and we can talk about things with open hearts. It also helps being near other people (in the crowds, streets, transportations) when you are an introvert and struggle with that.

I've been using Regulus III oil to annoint my crown, Mercury of Gemini on my forehead, lips/throat, and a mist of Jupe Juice over all of it before big social events, it's a winning combination for me.

Like many of the other reviewers, I notice this oil's effects more in the reactions of people around me--it quietly but powerfully draws benevolent attention. I get complimented on my work, on my mode of dress, etc.. I also feel like my voice in particular is louder/stronger, and I get heard when I speak, while the Mercury in Gem and Jupe in Sag makes me more inclined to speak up and my words well-received.

I *love* this oil so much and I'll definitely have to make sure I don't run out. It's delightfully invigorating. I have a natal Mercury in Scorpio so the light and playful spin and mental energy boost is extremely welcome, and it seems to make small talk with random strangers a more enjoyable experience. I don't usually use it before art or writing or anything like that, it can actually ruin my focus for those particular things, but it's fantastic for driving.

HUGE Fan of this whole series and its smell including this Kolonia. Clean and calm, ready to take on the day energy bottled. This kolonia is a must have for anyone who enjoys this form. I use mine almost everyday. Helps me get out of my own way and do what needs to be done.

After my neighbor started becoming a real pain in the ass (too much of a long, sordid story to tell here…just trust me when I say they were being really shitty), I used some of my DAII salt in a protective working, sprinkling it along the windowsill and the front doorway while in ritual. Within a matter of days…sweet relief! The problematic neighbor settled down, no further conflict or confrontation required. Like the other reviewers, I found these salts to be potent, effective, and fast-acting.

The perfect spray for movie & pizza nights curled up on the couch with my partner. The epitome of chill.

This body butter has a slightly herbal but mostly neutral scent, and it has a profound moisturizing effect on dry skin. When I apply it to my legs, I am able to walk greater distances (and with less pain!) than normal. Super helpful for those of us with task initiation issues, as well.

After applying several heavy sprays of this water on my pillows and sheets before bed, I quickly fall into a calm, placid slumber. The disturbances, somnambulism, and night terrors that have plagued me my whole life are mostly muted, and instead of waking up to an immediate sense of stomach-plunging existential dread, I feel more secure and balanced upon waking. Despite having milder effects than the steep and smoke from this series, this spray is still a helpful, beloved ally! While floral scents are *really* not my thing, luckily the rose notes in this water fade so quickly that I don’t end up with a headache.

I wasn't sure what drew me to the subset. I'd read it through before, didn't feel an affinity. But one morning I was drawn to it, and am profoundly glad I followed that intuition. I tend to be someone who picks up the feelings of others, often in ways that are confirmed. But it's not the most straightforward way of processing, and can lead to confusion, anxiety, etc. Just a whiff of gator powder and I very quickly got a visceral sense of the dynamics with a work situation for others involved - like I could see what was happening, and got a straightforward just-the-facts report. Gamechanger. I could now glimpse something that made no sense until that moment. Clarity. Which is what I need at this point, and could have made life a lot more straightforward over the years. I often thing of situations as tangled - gator helps me untangle and perceive with greater lucidity.

Fist-sized citrine stones. A perfectly painted Lunar goddess figurine. A vintage wooden camel complete with holy water container. A decorated Cuban cigar box. A bust of Nefertiti. A road safety medal awarded to a driver in the year of my birth that, now anointed with DA oil, and tweaked by a healer friend, has become an ally.

Above is just some of the booty that's found its way into my life since door-key oil joined the crew. I'm a pretty capable thrift warrior already. Some days now I feel I've become the Indiana Jones of the scene, and mostly I'm not even looking for anything specific but things are finding me on a regular basis.

Solutions too. Met up with a friend yesterday, and everything synchs for him to do some work on my house: it's about who he is at least as much as the skills he has. We parted, and two minutes later another friend showed up and over a coffee we cracked the core - the spirit really - of a comic/magazine we've been developing a while now, and discovered an identity that captures where me and he are with the world and which the zine feels like a special fit for.

Honestly, I got this to see if it would help with some stubborn chronic pain from a mysterious injury/inflamed issue with my psoas on one side (basically the entire side - very difficult to ignore). It was angry and refused to relent despite trying many approaches (rest, stretch, acupuncture, etc.). By the second day of applying it once daily, still engaging in gentle stretching - I was (finally!) beginning to feel some relief. I think a more undercurrent-like effect was being able to figure out what was potentially causing the pain to get worse, like I could hear my body better. I noticed it was easier to ground into the ability to actually release, almost like a stamina for the yin side of what I needed. I am still recovering and being aware of the area, but it is *significantly* better than it was.

Okay...so I ordered the lip balm and the oil and this doesn't specify which of the two this is for, so I'm just gonna review the oil since I've had the chance to work with it and the results are so good I decided to order the roll-on as well. First off, when I was reading the write up, I got major sphinx vibes...not that all the sphinxes fly, but that's the imagery I was getting. Anyway, I've got Libra rising in my chart, so I decided I needed a little more sun vibes in my life and I'm always here for big kitty energy. The first time I wore this, I had one of the best work days in a long time (filled with lots of laughter and attention and affection... particularly from male coworkers, which I don't mind matching the masculine intensity every now and then...but it's maybe not for everyone). Outside of work, the day ended with a much-needed cuddle session. If you ever see cats napping with each other where they are all floppy and comfortable and owning the entire space and their partner, that's what I mean. The second time I wore this, I asked my boss to leave work early on a whim and was given the rest of the day off. As a note, if you need to get stuff done, this might not be for you. I wore this to work on both days and a lot of time was spent goofing off and socializing/wandering around the nearby park, enjoying nature. Three-quarters of my chart is Virgo, so I can rein it in just enough to get everything done. But if you're prone to being flighty or you are constantly monitored, this might need to be a strictly day off materia.
