“Thanks for making such wonderful products - I don't know what I would do without your lovely scents; they really do make a difference in my life here in the dull suburbs! ”

“Your product is like a breath of fresh air which lasts all day. My sister first introduced me to the wonderful fragrances and my niece bought me some very nice gifts from Clear Light, which I'm so happy to be using. Carolyn, my sister has promoted your product where ever she goes, people always ask what's that wonderful smell. Interesting enough, last time she visited her Dr. and walked up to the receptionist who without looking up from her desk said "I smell Carolyn".... They love it too. Sooooo thats how I have become acquainted with Clear Light. I'm taking these products recently ordered to my niece who attendes U.C. Santa Cruz, now we all know she's gonna love it! ”

“The Cedar Breeze makes me think I've found heaven on earth - the only nicer thing would be to sleep in a cedar barn all the time. Wow. I plan to order several more for friends as "whatever" gifts. And I can't wait to burn my cedar candle. ”

“Hi guys! I've moved from Spokane to Sonoma County, CA - but am still interested in receiving your products! You have the best quality - and for a housewarming, I received your Cedar Candle - wonderful, best quality, best scent throughout life of candle and simple, lovely holder.

Keep up the good work and keep rolling out the new products....altho NOTHING can take the place of your original Cedar Mt. lotion!!”

“We lived in Albuquerque for many years and still have family there... your cedar products are great reminders of New Mexico... I wear the cedar oil when I work at the hospital... my patients enjoy the clean scent - and it doesn't bother the cancer or dialysis patients like so many other scents seem to do.. Keep up the good work !!!”

“I'm addicted to your cedar scent! There is no other smell in the entire world like your cedar. I have a few bottles of Mist on every floor of my house. It is so soothing and has such a crisp and fresh scent. My kids even ask me to spray them with the mist before bed. My little boy (6) gets a cedar mist spray on his pillow and he says, 'ahhhhhhhhhh.' Thanks.”

“I just arrived back in L. A. from Albuquerque, N.M. I stayed at the Hyatt, and when I walked in the smell was unbelieveable--I thought it was sage burning. I went into the gift store right away and purchased products...Really a wonderful scent and I enjoyed it so much, I bought the spray mist [Cedar Mountain Mist] and the 30 pack [of incense]. Thanks again for the greattttttttttt scent!!”

“Cedar Mountain Moisture Lotion is GREAT, not only for dry skin. I recently had shingles. The aftermath is horrible itching. So I thought that since the Lotion is good for dry skin I would try it for the itch. Lo and behold, it has helped--no itching! What a relief. It is working for me!”

“My package arrived yesterday and I absolutely LOVE the products. When I was a little girl, growing up in Tennessee, I had a secret hideaway in the middle of a cedar grove. Last night, I went back there with the help of your Cedar Mist on my pillow! Thank you for such wonderful, unique products. I will be ordering again soon.”

“I love the Catch the Breeze I have. It makes my sunroom fragrant at the most unexpected moments. For a while I couldn't figure out from where the marvelous fragrance was wafting! I thought it was a miracle!!!”

“I bought the original cedar-lavender bags. . . in Washington, where I have a little house, and hung a couple on tacks on the wall behind the bed. We have spiders, and I am terrified of them. I am convinced that your product helps ward them off, rather like garlic against vampires, only so heavenly-smelling. . . I put bags in my long zippered garment bags where I keep special things I seldom wear and I know they protect against clothes moths as well as contribute their scent. The last time I went to the big Renaissance Faire in the L..A. area a gorgeous fellow in costume ran his face down my shoulder and said "Zounds, sweeting, thy scent is mightily intoxicating!" It was, of course, the cedar-lavender bag hung on my costume hanger, and I enjoyed the whole scene, particularly since I'm a respectable grandma! So, thank you, cedar elf!”

“I recently visited your beautiful showroom! My home now smells exactly like your place and the Tamaya [Hyatt Resort]. I wanted to express my gratefulness for two items. One, the veterans' parking space. I have never served; however, I'm so appreciative of people who have and am so thankful when I see other people showing their thanks. . . . THANK YOU! I will be back for the festivities [at the Christmas Fair] and will be spreading the word. I love your products!”

“I LOVE YOUR SPRAY!!!!! Last year we purchased a small home on Grand Lake, near Grove, Oklahoma. The previous owners had left some of your potpourri and also the wonderful spray. I love the scent and use it each time we go. When I walk in the house, it smells like a pine/cedar forest. My childhood was spent in the Loblolly pine forests of southern Arkansas, and this reminds me of home. Thanks for putting your e-mail address on the packaging - that is how I found you.”

“ A big THANK YOU....my order arrived yesterday, and it's wonderful to have my favorite Bubbling Cedar Gel and cedar shampoo again. And thanks for the nice Lavendar lotion sample.....the ladies in my office are going nuts over it! Thanks again all for such prompt and expert service!”

“I received my order yesterday and was elated! I was resting in the evening and put the sachet on my chest so I could smell it with each breath I took! I've been diagnosed with fibromyalgia and have very little energy most days. . . I love natural fragrances and use a lot of aromatherapy. I am sharing the cedar news with everyone! Thank you for your work! God bless you.”

“I love your company and your products. I chose to give the Cedar Bubbling Bath & Shower Gel along with a natural sea sponge to my secret Santa this year. She loves it too. In fact everyone that I have given the shower gel to has really enjoyed it. I don't use it every day so I can make it last, but I use it whenever I need to feel calm and relaxed. It totally has an effect on me and my dog.
When I get the bottle of the cedar essence out to spray on my bed after I change the sheets, my dog comes running and rolls and rolls to get the scent all over his body. I wonder what it is about it that gets him so excited. It's the only product that I want to have in my life forever. . . ”

“Your products are among the finest cedar products I have ever used, applied, smelled, and enjoyed. I have always been a big fan of cedar, and your products are superior compared to others. I am a chronic pain patient, and on my worst pain days, smelling your cedar takes the edge off my pain. Anyone who has chronic pain will understand that if there is something—anything that can make getting through a pain flair-up a little easier, it is worth every penny. Thank you for making your products accessible to those of us living outside of New Mexico!”

“I must tell you how wonderful your cedar spray is. I have two young children, ages five and three. I bought your spray and after diluting it, every time I spray, my kids say "ahhhhhhhhh!!". It is the most wonderful scent and one of the cleanest and most natural smells that I have ever experienced. I will never use anything else and will be a lifelong customer of yours. Please don't ever go out of business.”

“After a lovely phone conversation with [your staffmember] Maddy, I'm putting my praise for your amazing Clear Light Cedar Shampoo in writing. After washing my hair for more than a half-century, I've found a product that I love unconditionally. My hair is baby-fine and extremely healthy; your Clear Light Cedar Shampoo enhances its natural sheen, doesn't build up, and its purity makes me very happy. Additionally, I use natural, red henna on my hair and the two products are very compatible. I get many compliments on the condition of my hair and always mention my shampoo. I thank you and Mother Earth for your co-creation.”

“I have my CEDAR. Today a teacher came into my office (I advise in a small non-traditional college program) and asked what smelled so good. I told him and he took some of the lotion without even asking me, he was so taken. (The sample bottle is my work therapy!) I have found my CEDAR, and I thank you.”

“I purchased a small bag of your Cedar with Lavender Buds probably in 1983 in New Mexico. It still has such a powerful scent/memory for me from the time I spent in the United States. I was a 19-year-old Australian camping about the U.S. I don't understand the hold this cedar-lavender has over me, but I do know that even through two separate horrendous times when I thought both my babies would die, your product was able to bring a sense of peace. I'm a registered nurse and find even 23 years after I came into contact with my cedar bag, it's still evocative and very calming. I would love to know if you still produce this wonderful blend, and even though my 23-year-old little bag still amazes me, I would love to smell a new one, if possible.”

“I am a nanny and my boss has a sachet in her dresser drawer. Whenever I went to put clothes away, I would smell the wonderful scent. I finally looked at the name on it the other day and looked you up on the Internet. Then I decided that I must buy some for my husband and myself. He grew up in Farmington, New Mexico, and we both love plants, so here we are. I figure the relaxing smell of cedar pines will help us escape the hustle and bustle of San Diego. (Whenever we get dressed, at least!) Thanks for a great product. We are spreading the word to all our friends as well.”

“For a long time I longed to travel to New Mexico. Towards the end of last year I spontaneously decided to do so. I flew to Albuquerque, spent a little time there, and then drove up to Santa Fe, Taos, and Taos Pueblo.
While in Santa Fe I needed some moisture lotion. I was at Whole Foods in Santa Fe . . . and found your Cedar Mountain Moisture Lotion. The scent and the feel on the skin felt so good and right that I indulged and bought it.
When I returned home people noticed and reacted to your Cedar Mountain scent. Some even asked me to pass by them once more because they enjoyed the scent so much. I certainly enjoy it tremendously myself, and I thank you for creating such a soothing, beautifully scented lotion.”

“...my very favorite is the cedar lotion, neither sticky or oily, and that elegant fragrance is as good as mountain air.”

“I just wanted to thank you for such wonderful products and outstanding service.
I have been using your Cedar Mountain Moisture Lotion for as long as I can remember; it has always been a staple for my family. My mother used to always have a bottle around when I was a little girl. When I was in college, my now husband, for a gift and a splurge, bought me your shampoo and conditioner one Christmas, and it was wonderful to have the smell of your cedar in my hair. When I was going to have my son in the hospital, I packed a sample bar of your cedar soap . . . It has such a soothing aroma, and I will always associate that scent with fond memories.
I shop in your showroom on occasion. . . your ladies are the most delightful ladies around. They are pleasant and helpful, and I appreciate the little sample gifts I receive with my purchases. The care and service I receive really make me feel like my business is appreciated and that is important to me. It also makes me happy to support a local New Mexico business that uses natural ingredients and that makes their products on site. . . . Thank you so much for the care you put in your products, and your new lavender lotion is wonderful!”
