Heliotrope Oakland - local business in Oakland

"I have been wanting to try there facial products for about 2 months . My face was breaking out really bad every morning and I started to get a lot of dark spots , so I spontaneously went to heliotrope after work . As someone who has never dealt with acne until my 30’s I have no idea where to start to heal my skin . Everything I try breaks me out , and my trust in skin care productes has been broken . Now it’s only been 3 days of using Heliotrope products , and I immediately feel a difference in my skin texture , I have not woken up to any breakouts, I can tell my face is very clean . The products are light but impactful. I don’t feel like I’m putting toxins on my skin , I had a scar on my face and it is healing . I purchased a cleanser, witch hazel and rose water toner , and the cucumber moisturizer. Also a body oil. I spent 115 dollars and was worried at first , but I feel my money was well spent . The owner was polite and his staff, you could tell he was very passionate about his products . I hope they stick around , because I would like to continue using these products . And I will be back in a couple of weeks for more products. ❤️"

"The Jojoba & Avocado Body Balm is awesome - very moisturizing and a great texture, with really nice scents that are light enough not to be overpowering. Also, I placed my last order for pickup, and they texted me to say that the owner happened to be passing through my neighborhood the next day and could drop it off - so thoughtful! Highly recommend Heliotrope for all your skin and bath product needs!"

"I love this spot. Not only is it so nice to have a shop like this in the neighborhood, but it also has locally sourced products. I just picked up the shave cream and bath salts and I can’t wait to try them. I’ve loved everything I’ve bought here and the service is excellent. I was even able to pick some great stocking stuffers. What a charming shop!"

"Found this place by accident some months back, and had to come back. Great smell, VERY long lasting. Will be coming back when I need more"
