The founder Gabi took the time to listen to my health needs and make thoughtful recommendations about which products might be best to test out first, and she advised a couple in the mini size and another in the regular size, helping me ease into a new skincare routine. I am so excited for my order to arrive!

I have been using Bright Body products since October 2019 and I can’t say enough about how great the products are and how helpful Gabi has been to choose the right products for me. I was first attracted to BB because of their commitment to sustainability, but once I tried one product (the moisture locking spray), I quickly transitioned most of my hair skincare routine over to BB products. My favorite products are the clear skin potion and the Ayurvedic facial oil because they’ve worked wonders to treat and moisturize my skin. Another great thing about BB is that the products aren’t diluted with a lot of water so they last SO LONG so even though the price point is higher than what I used to buy, the product quality is much better and lasts longer than the products I’ve stopped using. I highly recommend trying out Bright Body’s clean, sustainable, and well-crafted products!

I have nothing but good things to say about Bright Body and Gabi, the owner. I took advantage of the online consultation before my first purchase and it was the best decision. Gabi talked to me about my hair and skincare needs, explained the different products, and made recommendations. She helped me stay within my budget and created a list of all the products we discussed. When I needed to exchange some products that my parents gave me for Christmas, Gabi was extremely responsive and made the exchange process so easy! I absolutely love the products I’ve purchased (face wash, oil, moisturizer, hair rinse, gel, and curl locking spray) and am excited for the new products Gabi is creating in 2021!

I ordered some skin products and curly hair products for the first time and I am in LOVE. Gabi is so committed to her business, customer satisfaction AND education. This shows in all aspects of Bright Body—direct communication , customer service, shipping, packaging, social media presence, everything! I am someone who admittedly hates washing my face (my skin is pretty clear so most of the care I do is just preventative/after wearing makeup) but I the facial cleanser, toner, and face oil are such simple, elegant and effective products that I have finally a routine that a can (kind of) keep up with :) I love being able to support people like Gabi and their small businesses. Can’t wait to reorder ?

I had been following Bright Body on IG after I placed an order when an add popped up on my feed. What sold me was the curly haired girl in the pictures whom I later found out was the owner. She's cute and quirky, has a wealth of knowledge, I admired her perfectly moisturized bouncy curls and even thought her mullet was pretty cool. Back in January the company made a post on IG about science and healthcare that I agreed with and had an additional point. I thought nothing of adding my comment to the public post but the response I received made it clear it was in fact not a safe space to share thoughts and ideas about medical freedom. I was told that it wasn't up for a debate and that I should just unfollow. Stunned, I tried to clarify myself in that I wasn't intending for a debate but instead the added thought. I explained that I chose to follow the brand's page as a customer of the products and wouldn't just unfollow for no reason. Thinking back on it now, telling me that there was the option to unfollow was so condescending. Isn't that how IG works? I get to choose who and when to follow? Anyhow, I assume the responses I was receiving was from the owner because a trained ambassador of the company wouldn't be so bold to push away their customers. I wasn't rude or disrespectful and sincerely thought it was a misunderstanding and left it at that. Well fast forward to today, I was running low on my product and searched for Bright Body on IG to see what other items I should add to my order, and well... THEY BLOCKED ME! Lol. I saw on one of their political posts that they "didn't need anybody's Trump loving money" but I guess that type of thinking has bled into other individual thoughts, ideas and opinions. SO BEWARE! You just might be the next to get canceled if you engage with anything more than an emoji.

I found Bright Body soon after moving to Richmond and I am so glad I did!. The products are incredible and the educational info she offers is so helpful in figuring out what you specifically need. I have used these products for almost 2 years now and my skin has never looked better. It's clear that Gabi puts so much effort, attention, and love into her products and she cares about her customers.

I ordered the leave in conditioner for straight hair. It smells amazing and leaves my hair so soft without weighing it down at all! It also makes detangling really easy after a shower. All of her formulations are well thought out and actually work! I love that this brand stands for both Ayurveda and science. Buy from this wonderful lady and you won’t be disappointed!

I have been a fan of Bright Body since I met the owner and her mom at a market here in Richmond in 2017. First connecting about curly hair products, I have since been delighted to see how this company has grown.I recently met with Gabi for my first ever Ayurvedic consult. As an individual with numerous chronic conditions, I was delighted when Gabi explained her position on including science and research in her work. I am on week two of my herbs and am seeing a difference in my quality of life so far.I have a feeling Bright Body and Gabi are a permanent fixture in my healthy and wellness routine!

Hands down the best skin care line that I've ever used. I absolutely love Gabi's mission of providing clean products with environmentally conscious packaging. As someone who habitually checks the EWG's page for any skin care product I'm interested in, I appreciate the level of research that goes into Bright Body's products. I've been using several products for almost a year now. Not only do they feel incredible, my skin has never looked better. Bonus, the products are just as good now as they were when I first got them. I've tried several small batch skin care lines that seem to loose their strength a month or so after purchase. Not the case with Bright Body.

Bright body has literally saved my skin and hair!! I’ve been a customer since Fall 2019 and there is absolutely no way I am going back. Gabi is dedicated and always looking for ways to make her products better. I am Indian but have never really used Ayurvedic products before, even though my mom always encouraged me to do so. I’m glad Gabi took the leap to educate herself because of her genuine interest and truly created the most amazing products based on very well known principles. On top of that, she is a believer in science and knows it’s place in this world. She does not contribute to the false beliefs and fears that many within the natural product industry tend to do, instead she educated and informs. You will not find a better business owner and with amazing products. You will not be disappointed!!

Bright Body has been a bright spot in my life and self care for almost a year now. The Ayurvedic facial oil smells amazing (hello basil!) and feels luxurious but not oily. I love the refreshing feel and scent of the Illuminating Tonic too. The Gentle Face Wash cleanses without drying out my skin. And, broken record here, it smells great. A little goes a long way with these thoughtfully made products that are full of natural, nourishing, no nonsense ingredients. And Gabi’s knowledge and customer service cannot be overstated. She has educated me about her products, but she has also listened to me and my needs and concerns to help me make educated purchases. Can’t stop, won’t stop loving this business.

I found my bright body at the OTR makers market last year. Started with the deodorant and loved it. This Christmas I received a face care and hair care kit. I found the face wash I selected may not be the right one and reached out to Gabi immediately. She's been incredibly helpful trying to get me the best products for me! In addition to this, her products are all in containers that I can return for refill or compost. In addition to all of this she is completely transparent about how to make your own skin care and what goes into hers.

I have loved every Bright Body product I have tried! Their products are amazing and make my skin and hair feel so fresh and wonderful. It’s hard to find affordable clean beauty products and Bright Body makes it so easy. Their website is so informative and easy to shop, and I love how transparent Gabi is about the ingredients she uses. I love the curly hair products and the Ayurvedic face oils are my favorite! I highly recommend everything from Bright Body!

Great, handmade products! It's awesome to have someone put so much thought and care into making a skin/hair care without all the toxic junk that you find in other stuff from the store. The owner/creator is super friendly and helpful too! I love that she is honest about what she's making, helps out the local community, and you can recycle/reuse/refill the product containers!

As a brand founder myself, it’s been a challenge to find other like-minded, authentic, kind-hearted women business owners who reciprocate support, and offer products that actually work for me. Gabi, the owner of Bright Body not only makes extremely nurturing and effective products, but also has taken personal time from her busy schedule to support our new beauty business in several ways. It takes a truly kind human to help another business offering a similar category of products without blinking an eye. It’s like a business sisterhood! I’m obsessed with the Bright Body hair collection and Ayurvedic Body Oils! If you haven’t tried these yet, I highly recommend them!
