Hi. I love the products I ordered from you! Everything I received was in great condition, no problems with anything.
My husband was quite impressed with the peppermint oil. It is so strong. He put only one little drop in a huge glass of ice water, and couldn't believe how it tasted. He had to add more water it was so potent.
I hope to order some more things in the future.
