5 diane  · It lathers well, it seems good value for money, it makes my hair feel soft and shiny, and best of all, my sensitive scalp is no longer sensitive or itchy.

I have been a customer of Beauty and the Bees for over 15 years. Beauty and the Bees products are an outstanding range of soaps, balms, shampoos, conditioners and treatments.The products smell beautiful, the quality is amazing, help cut down on waste and have no toxic chemicals. Most of all they actually worked on my skin. I had eczema on my legs,… Read more

I tried everything to help relieve the condition, which did not help. I found within 1 week of using the French Clay soap and The All Over Moisture Balm the itching went away. I always have Beauty and the Bees in my girlie stash. This brand is one that I have always used and will use into the future. I absolutley love these products and recommend Beauty and the Bees to everyone.

Beard Shampoo is brilliant – I bought the beard shampoo for a friend and he said it made his beard 100 times more luscious which is Beard Goals.

Instant change! – Today was my first time using the shampoo blocks. My hair as I age is getting coarse, I had lost my waves. As soon as I rubbed the shampoo in, my hair detangled and felt like I had already used conditioner! End result, smooth, light feeling, fresh smelling and wavy hair, I’m in love!!!!! I will return! Thank you!!!!

Although the products are lovely (used once) the business practice is poor. After buying nearly $200 worth of products in two orders (ranging from skincare to haircare and bodycare) a few minutes apart from one another the second order was sent and on the website the other wasnt. I contacted the office to be told ring back tomorrow, ring at a… Read more

better time, (3pm the call was made), so I contacted the owner via fb messenger and after trying to explain that my main order wasnt sent she told me to take my business elsewhere she didnt need clients like me. Which is rather sad. I wont be going back to buy. I tried the products and they were good and I contacted her again to say how good they were and about the misunderstanding but she didnt bother to reply. I guess my business per month isnt worth her reply. The products now are all in the bin as I have no faith in a good product and bad customer service by the owner. Rather sad as a few of us alternative lifestyle women would have been more than willing buyers.

Customer for life – I have been a big fan of Beauty and the Bees for nearly 5 years. I found them online after searching for bottle shampoo alternatives. The Beauty and the Bees website is easy to navigate, contains clear ingredient lists and plenty of information on their products. The Beauty and the Bees range of beautiful natural soaps, shampoo and conditioner… Read more

bars, skincare and more is extensive. I've used their shampoo bars exclusively for the past 5 years and my hair is in such great condition, I'll never use anything else. Same goes for their divine soaps and excellent skincare.

I know I can always shop with confidence at Beauty and the Bees because every product I've tried has been of the most amazing quality and does exactly what it says. Knowing my choices are Earth friendly is the cherry on top.

Exceptional quality and value for money. But if all that still doesn't tempt you, Beauty and the Bees have great customer service and offer a money back guarantee. Not that you'll need it.

Amazed! – Firstly I am in awe of the fact I placed an order yesterday around 12.30pm SA time and I received my order at 11.30am SA time today! Your service is amazing! Secondly I am so impressed with your products! I have incredibly fine and thin hair. My hair was in awful condition, it is like 4 seasons in one day. My roots go oily after 1 day and the… Read more

ends feel dry and brittle and it knots like crazy as it is so fine. I have tried super expensive hairdresser shampoo and conditioner and retail shampoo and conditioner and to be honest both work about the same in my hair. Great for 2 days then it goes back to being gross. I ended up just using the Satan of the shampoo world Pantene as my partner has a big curly beard and it works the best for him and I just had to wash mine every day.

I saw an ad on instagram for your company and thought hey let's check it out. I saw the sample pack and bought one. I gave my partner the pink frizzy bar and after one wash he was in love! His beard was the softest it has ever been even without conditioner and the curls were almost tame. I tried the oily shampoo bar and beer conditioner and was blown away how soft and normal my hair felt after 1 wash. After a couple days my hair was no longer oily so switched to the normal bar and it was even better. Yesterday I used the pink frizzy bar Dave has been using and I didn't even use conditioner. Today is the first time I have ever not washed my hair since childhood and I honestly had the first "knot" in it i have had since using your products after sleeping with it down last night.

Baby steps in not having to wash my hair every day but..... thank you for making my hair feel amazing as I honestly don't remember the last time it felt this natural

I have tried of few Beauty and Bees products and have been very satisfied with most of the products. I found the ‘Leatherwood Honey & Macadamia Rich Moisture Cream too heavy but like the Honey and Coconut Light Moisture Cream much easier on my face. Thank you.

Disappointed – I had such high hopes for this product. All natural, no plastics and homegrown in Australia, but I was very disappointed. First the products came and the conditioning bar in particular was a lot smaller than I thought it would be, especially for the price. I figured quality stuff is sometimes expensive though - paying for the all natural… Read more

ingredients etc so shrugged it off. Was super excited to use them. They smelt great! But then I put them in my hair. The shampoo made my hair feel so dry even when it was wet that I couldn't run my fingers through it or even over it, they were getting stuck. Tried the conditioner thinking that would smooth/soften it up but it just left my hair with this horrible sticky coating even after thoroughly washing out. I thought I'd give the product the benefit of the doubt and maybe it was user error so I re-read all the instructions and even watched the 'how to' videos before my next wash but nope, it didn't change the horrible way it made my hair feel. It made my hair somehow super dry, feeling like straw, but oily and sticky at the same time. I've tried multiple washes now and it's just destroying my hair. My hair has never felt so damaged and horrible, not to mention it's so hard to brush because of these products and the dryness and stickiness that so much hair is coming out every brush! I've never had to empty my hair brush so many time in such a short while. It feels almost like you've literally put wax in your hair to style it and then slept in it and just tried to brush it out the next day, but that's what it feels like every day! It doesn't get better or less tangled or softer between brushes/washes. I've had to stop using it because it's damaging my hair so much. I'm so disappointed as I was so excited to start my plastic free - all natural - Australian made product journey but there's no way I can keep using this even though I'd like to support local because it's just so damaging and feels disgusting. Such a shame!

Terrible – I tried two of the cleansing bars - both were really irritating and uncomfortable. And the packaging is misleading, it lists olive oil, but no note that it has been chemically modified - which is actually illegal. Very disappointed with the product and company.

The worst shampoo bar I have ever used – I tried this shampoo bar because I wanted to switch from the ones I had been using, to support an Australian, environmentally conscious company. I was impressed that the product arrived with minimal packaging and no plastic, as well as being made from ethically sourced ingredients. However I am very disappointed in the product. My hair has been… Read more

left with what can only be described as a sticky coating. It looks horrible and greasy and when I touch it the residue comes off on my hands, leaving my hands feeling sticky too. It was so bad I could barely even get a brush through my hair, and it would become tangled very easily. Looking at the FAQs on the website, they say that this is normal as your hair adjusts to using this bar and that it's due to the silicone being washed off your hair after using commercial products. Well firstly, I've never used silicone based products on my hair, and prior to using this shampoo bar, my hair was in excellent condition, I was able to go long periods between washes and my hair was rarely oily. So to be hit with this horrible feeling hair is very upsetting. And I did use it for a couple of months to see if my hair would "adjust" as the website stated, but it just got worse. Further reading on the website leads me to believe that you can't just use the shampoo. They say you can, but then they go on to say that if your hair feels gross, you need to use their "clarifying rinse" to wash the built up product out of your hair. sorry, but shampoo should not build up in your hair and you shouldn't need an extra product to rinse out the shampoo. And if this is the case, they could at least tell you that when you buy it, not when you're eating the FAQs to try to find out what is wrong with your hair. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone. Its an awful product, and I hate that the website is written to sound as though is you don't love it, it's your fault somehow for not doing it right. It shouldn't be that complicated to wash your hair.

(and as soon as I went back to my old shampoo, the sticky feeling wanted away and my hair was fine).

I found Beauty and the Bees on FB. They have a great range of products to choose from. The site was easy to navigate and find what I wanted to try. The quality of the products is really good, very happy with my purchase. It is nice to buy from a small business that cares about their products and cares for the environment also. J.K.

I have used the shampoos, conditioners and soaps and can not praise enough the quality of these products, the way my hair and body feel after using them and as an added bonus great for the environment.

I am extremely happy with how easy it is to find and order these wonderful products. The samples help you to find what works best for you and the many choices are great. The fact that the products are made of natural ingredients leaves your hair and body feeling fresh and clean. I have been using the products for around 6 weeks now and I have no signs of soap scum in my shower.

I first found and purchased from Beauty and the Bees to help a wonderful friend who was suffering from terrible skin that medications had made worse. My lovely friend started using natural skin lotions for sensitive skin, and the relief from itching and healing that the lotion provided was a significant contributor to her skin now being 'normal'.… Read more

I have subsequently purchased the same lotions for my granddaughters and also the sample soaps as gifts. Beauty and the Bees is a high-class business to deal with, in my experience. They offer superlative natural products, great variations of products, and the service is exceptional. I regularly purchase and receive the products very quickly here in Canberra. I am a delighted customer, and I will continue to use the products offered going forward. I would recommend this business as an outstanding small Australian business.

After finding Beauty and the Bees and using only that Brand for 3 months for a true comparison, I threw out my other items and have not looked back. Than you , without your brand I would still be having itching, scaling, dry skin and scalp

Really love the products from Beauty and the Bees, been using them now for almost 30 years. Find it easy to order online and packages arrive intact and on time. But also find the environmental values of the company align with mine: great products and low carbon footprint ticks all the boxes for me ❤️

there are no nasty chemicals in them that can destroy hair follicles. Do yourself a favour, buy from them. The website is user friendly. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been purchasing Beauty and the Bees Tasmanian Real Beer & Honey Shampoo for over 20 years and absolutely love it! It offers great value as it lasts a very long time and just a little shampoo is all that is required to provide excellent results. The Ginger, Cinnamon & Nutmeg is simply delightful. Great to take travelling too.

I tripped over an advertisement for B&B while on FB. As I had been having a lot of trouble with an itchy scalp for months, I was interested and got online. I found the website very easy to navigate and I’m a technophobe. I liked the fact that I could buy samples, so many times I’ve had to buy the full sized product only to find it didn’t suit me.… Read more

I have to say that so far I haven’t found a product that I don’t like and I’ve tried a few. Also, my order was in the mail the next day, how good is that! Communication is another area where this company excels. I’ve always been kept up to date on where my order is and the instructional videos that were emailed to me have been the greatest help. This company deserves more than the 5 stars!
