Brooklyn Herborium

"The quality of this store speaks for itself. I’ve been receiving facials at the Herborium for several years, and each time it’s like being transported to another planet. The services are a true treat, and the women are knowledgeable and nurturing. They will never shame you for the products you use, and they will never push their products on you. They aim to educate you, and they give recommendations for easy-to-implement minor changes that you can start making to improve your skin and overall wellness. This is a woman-owned business. Give them your support!!"

"I had a level 1 facial with Jen a few weeks ago and it was absolutely fabulous. From the moment I arrived at the shop, Jen and the woman at the front desk (whose name I unfortunately do not recall) offered me herbal tea and made me feel comfortable on the couch. Jen chatted with me before the facial to better understand my current routine. The facial was extremely relaxing and my skin was glowing afterwards! Jen provided helpful recommendations on how to manage my skin care and demonstrated how to use some of the recommended products from my service. She was very honest and not too pushy. Weeks later, my skin continues to feel awesome and I am excited to return to the shop soon! I would highly recommend a facial at Brooklyn herborium or even a visit into the shop to look at their awesome natural skincare products"

"I loved my experience at the Brooklyn Herborium (Carroll Gardens) with Jen. I don't treat myself like this often, so I decided to go for it all, with level 3. I've had a few facials before but this was something extra special. I was surprised (pleasantly) that it started with a chat session on the couches, sipping organic herbal tea. The decor and vibe of the spot is welcoming, beautiful, homey with a hint of rustic sophistication. She asked me about my routine and told me she would know how to customize my treatment with a closer look when we got into the treatment room, which was just as serene and homey as the rest of the store. It turned out that some of the options I thought about were not needed; I appreciated her honesty. I opted for her recommendations because I trusted her sincerity and expertise. Jen had an intuitive touch and was clear that I could give her direction if I wanted to. I enjoyed the massages, the soft music selection, the sound bath with real instruments as I lay in a mask with warm towels, the crystals and stones, the subtle scents of the organic handmade products. It was just what I needed on a cold winter day. I even went out to dinner without makeup because I was glowing! After the treatment, I was able to browse the products while she showed me exactly how to use them at home and answer all my questions thoroughly. I felt genuinely pampered and cared for. I will definitely be going back to see Jen!"

"I had read about Emma's natural skin care philosophy and practice on Into The Gloss and as someone with sensitive skin and a preference for all things natural i was really keen to try out Emma's facials and products. When i visited NYC in 2013 i got my chance. I cannot recommend Between You and The Moon highly enough! Emma gave me excellent skin care advice, the best facial i have ever had (before or since) and i took many of her products with me back to Australia. My skin looked AMAZING afterwards and her products are gentle yet super effective. I love that they are natural, handmade and effective. I wish i lived in NYC just for Between You and The Moon. Seriously!"

"I was blown away with Molly and Emma, they were great, happy, funny and the products I got from them based on their expert advice and experience was just what I needed to get me to that next level of skin care. Yes I am a guy, but I care about beauty and so do these women and it is reflected in the excellent quality of their products. This is the only place for me to get the kind of naturally high quality product that I will use on my face and trust because of the great results I have had and continue having."
