Ojai Festival Recap
July 1, 2009 Written by LaurenJ
On Saturday, June 27, Chivas attended the Lavender Festival in Ojai, and it was so much fun! Along with our Lavender Oatmeal and Lavender Pine Chamomile soaps, we also featured our other soaps, facial crèmes, and lip balms. It was smelling pretty nice and fragrant over there!
We also had a fun give-away contest going on where people guessed how many lip balms were in the mason jar – Lili was our winner for the day and received a $50 gift certificate to our online store.
Chivas seemed to be a hit – perhaps because our interns put some of our soap into the women’s bathroom?
All-in-all, the Lavender Festival was a great day for spreading the word (and the soap) about Chivas Skin Care.

We were excited to see Ree Drummond, the blogger behind The Pioneer Woman, feature products from Chivas Skin Care. She declared our product scents “divine,” saying, “When I picked up the box, I was immediately struck by the scent-ohhhhhh, the scent… I can’t even begin to tell you how good it smelled.”
We especially love the above photo which shows how she displayed our goat milk soaps, creme, bath salts and vegan lip balms for her guests. What a great reuse of our crinkle packing paper too!
