Something smells good in this Pasadena treasure chest. The aroma of freshly made soaps and beauty products--all created in-house--permeates the entire space. Everything in this beauty bar is au natural and rich in essential oils and fine herbs. And with flavors like Kahlua coffee bar, lavender oatmeal and lemongrass peppermint, you’ll have to remind yourself that these products aren’t for tasting. But this shop isn’t just for the ladies--there are a number of “man bars” that offer more ‘masculine’ scents of cleanliness.
