Homemade Aromaterapi Istanbul
Natural and vegan products
Homemade Aromaterapi is a small, beautiful shop in Kuzguncuk (check out the article). This is the right spot if you want to treat yourself head-to-toe with a wide variety of natural products. Their product range includes but is not limited to cold-pressed essential oils, cleansers, soaps, shampoos, moisturizers, colognes, and toothpaste. They also have DIY kits.
The interior design of Homemade Aromaterapi with a simple but impressive display of the products is quite inviting, and you get feel-good vibes when you enter the shop. The staff is also welcoming and kind. They will help you if you are not sure what the best product is for your needs. The products with good quality and packaging make them great gifts, too. I personally love their hair care set, which contains a shampoo, a hair conditioner, and a hair mask in mini sizes; it is also thoughtfully packaged in an elegant and recyclable box.
All of their products are 100% vegan and cruelty-free. Since they sell high-quality products with entirely natural ingredients, the prices are a bit higher. They have stores in Nişantaşı and Kanyon, too, and you can also buy the products online on their website.

Holy Fragrance sellers
Various perfumes
"Holy Fragrance" sellers sit just outside mosques and provide refreshing perfumes. I would recommend the ones in Istanbul's Beyazit and Yeni mosques.
