I have tried the soothing flowers buttercream as well and this one is by far my favorite. It compliments my skin needs in the dry high elevation of Flagstaff, AZ. I use it morning and night.
My skin doesn’t tolerate any “modern”, chemical skincare brands. Even if they claim to be “clean”. I only use Living Libations or Yay for Earth. But I have been wanting to try this cream for awhile now. And so far i love it. Smella fresh and earthy, with a hint of cucumber/lemon. Creamy. Hydrating and lovely.
This is my second purchase of this item. The blue tansy addresses redness and the cucumber is hydrating with a fresh scent. I highly recommend it.
This is a brilliant product. It seems pricey for the amount, but a little dab in the morning or after shaving leaves my face shining and my senses invigorated. It has a lovely complex cucumber scent, which is surprisingly strong, but not in a bad way. Highly recommend.
My skin was getting red spots and this cream is a miracle worker. It took away the redness and added so much needed moisture to my skin. I just love it!
I found the cucumber buttercream at the Friday Harbor Island Thymes store. The shopkeeper was so helpful. I needed a moisturizer and face protector that would keep my face from getting too dry. I use it every day over serum and my skin looks moist. I do not have the ultimate dryness. I’ve ordered this product 3x now. I live in San Francisco,
I am fairly obsessed with Island Thyme products. I was excited to try the cucumber blue tansy buttercream and found that it moisturizes my 52 year old skin beautifully in addition to giving it a lovely glow. The smell is quite unique - as the description says: wonderfully complex and herbaceous . Although the scent is different, it feels exotic in its originally, plus I know it is all natural, good stuff making it all the more yummy..
No idea why I waited so long to try this one. It's marvelous and my skin drinks it up. The fresh cucumber scent is light and refreshing and the cream erases away the puffiness under the eyes. Great for soothing just-waxed facial areas, too. I need this on subscription!
I have been using this on my feet at night, I apply a small dollop to the hand, spread onto all sides of my feet then put on cotton socks. It makes my feet very soft and normal, like its spring instead of winter. Very nice and effective product!
I bought the whole cucumber gift set a few years back, (Love all the products) I ran out of the one jar cream, thought I would try this one as it’s a newer product. It seems to do its job. I apply it at night and wash off in the morning. Seems to do its job, but want do I know……
I bought this after trying the Daily Moisturizer. It does go on heavier and almost feels oily at first, so I only use it at night. But the texture is luxurious and I wake up with softer skin than any night cream I have used before. It has not caused any breakouts either. I really love the feel of this one!
Trying out the Cucumber Blue Tansy instead of my usual night cream. Although we've had sufficient rain my skin always feels so dry. So far pretty good.
I bought this along with the lotion cleanser and they are both amazing! I will say the buttercream feels oily when I put it on at night but once I rub it in it’s ok. I never wake up with oily skin! Smells good and helps cool my face!
This is such a lovely product! I love the cucumber scent and already have some of your blue tansy oil and a face cream I use daily. This product is the best combo of both but with a thick luxurious texture. It is now a part of my night time routine to put it on before bed. Thanks Island Thyme!
Our Process
Nature's best
We start with the highest quality flowers, herbs, and medicinals. Some, like calendula, lavender, and cucumber, come from the Island Thyme farm. Others, like St. John's Wort, are wildcrafted in Montana's Bitterroot Mountains. Others are sourced from around the world.
Time-tested recipes
All of our recipes have been developed in-house over the past 25+ years. Starting from skin-nourishing base ingredients like sweet almond oil and beeswax, we fine-tune the scent and texture.
Small batches
No industrial manufacturing here! In our commercial kitchen in the village of Eastsound on Orcas Island, our crew meticulously crafts each product in small batches for freshness and quality control.
Delivered to you
After labeling, products are ready for you, our amazingly loyal customers. Our shipping team boxes up online orders, stocks our two storefronts in Eastsound and Friday Harbor, and prepares shipments to our wholesale outlets, which include natural food stores and gift shops throughout the Pacific Northwest
