I received information that the Beekman guys will be on Evine the first weekend in March. I hope if anyone else has information they will share please! Thanks.

I really did not watch much of their last shows so I did not hear a next show date. 1st weekend of Mar sounds good though. Where did you receive the info.? I don't really need anything but if the price & shipping is right I would order. On their FB page under upcoming events they don't have the show on Evine listed. They will be in Iowa the 2nd weekend & in Co the 3rd weekend.

I wish QVC would bring a comparable product line like Beekman.

I wanted to order Beekman last Dec, but didn't because I had shipping/delivery problem with Evine before, and don't need the mess again.

I'll have to checkout the dates on Facebook. Thanks, Nightowlz and butterfly123.

I like their products. Not that I need anymore, but, I am sure I will find something when they come back in March. I like their bar soaps with a pouf for the shower and their hand soaps for the kitchen and bathroom sinks. If I lived up in New York State, I would love to go their farm and shop. I have a friend in upstate New York - and she and her sister will be going there later this spring.

What a fun trip that would be, to go their farm and take a tour and shop.

@sunshine 919 I agree, it would be fun. I'd love to go to their shop- lots of goodies there. I've bought some of their food from their website and most of it has been REALLY good. yum!

The one TSV box they had at Christmas time was an unbelievable deal. The box was beautiful, and there was actually 3 different gifts inside that could have been gifts.

I opened the large box, and intantly melted my desire to give ANY of it away! All of it was so good, I kicked myself for not buying 2 of those.

Did anyone else get the Christmas TSV? It was only $59(ish) and there was so much product in that box. All different stuff thought, so I kept it all Great buy!

@gabstoomuch yes I did! It was an unbelivable deal and the packaging was beautiful! I too did not want to give any away but I did and then just bought myself more stuff,lol! Everyone I gifted Beekman stuff to LOVED their gifts. That was one of the better purchases I've made on a shopping channe- alot of great products at a very reasonable price.

All the little boxes within the big box are usable too! A steal.

@gabstoomuch That Bounty Box was incredible! I ordered one and ended up ordering a second Bounty Box because it was such a great deal. Most of my Beekman stuff is for me (and a little for DH), but I have gifted a couple bars of soap to a few family members.

Nothing about the Beekman products are exceptional when they usually include some pretty noxious stuff, like Methylisothiazolinine to name one, a strong industrial preservative and a potent allergen. Why mix natural things with poisons. Beekman is anything but natural. I also "love" their gimic, the baby goat. Makes me wonder -- they're pulling wool, rather goat hair, over everyones eyes. Yes, absolutely, I believe they milk all those animals by hand -- uh-huh. Oh wait, that's really done mechanically inflicting pain, and then they mix everything in the kitchen sink. What a farce!!!! Their business background proves they're so bogus.

@gabstoomuch @HappyDaze and @JeanLouiseFinch, I have read a number of other posts about that special purchase Bounty Box. Could you let me know what was in it.

Thanks !!!

@bebe777 Here is a pic and description:

SET INCLUDES:
Apricot & Honey Tea Face Wipes - 6 oz/30 Wipes Each
Apricot & Honey Tea Lip Balm - 0.15 oz
Apricot & Honey Tea Body Lotion - 12.5 oz
Apricot & Honey Tea Bar Soap - 9 oz
Heirloom Rose Bar Soap - 9 oz
Heirloom Rose Lip Balm - 0.15 oz
Fresh Cream Hand Cream - 2 oz
Fresh Cream Bar Soap - 9 oz

It is still available but at a little higher price: 310-832

The Apricot and Honey Tea body lotion smells alot like the Philosphy Summer grace, which I liked but it is not cruelty free so was happy to find this close dupe.

@HappyDaze, thanks so much for sharing the info about this special. I'm still enjoying that bar of Beekman soap you sent me. Thank you again for that!! I'm really surprised at how long it lasts, because it sounded as though it would only last for about a month.

@bebe777 you are welcome! I can't remember, did I send you the honeyed grapefruit or the vanilla absolute? I remember trying to decide which one you might like better but they both smell sooo good! I am not even a huge vanilla scent person, as you know, but love the vanilla absolute scent in this because it smells warm and cozy. Yes, the bars last forever. i think someone said it only lasted them a few weeks and thought that was crazy because my husband uses it at least once a day and it lasts us at least 5 weeks.

@HappyDaze, you sent me the grapefruit soap and it smells wenderful... tee hee.

I think I finally started using the Beekman bar sometime in December. I've been very frugal with my bar, but it's been 4-6 weeks and it's still only half gone (which is in line with your combined use). I just give it a quick pass over my skin and then lather up. *s*

I can understand where you are coming from with regard to vanilla. I either love Vanilla scents (as with some of my perfumes) and Chaz's 613, or I really dislike it. I tend to think that the vanilla scents I dislike are probably scents that use the much cheaper artificial vanillin. *uggg!*

Chaz actually uses both vanilla and vanillin in his 613 line (but he uses more real vanilla because it is listed higher in the ingredients deck). I have been using 613 for 3-4 years and I only realized that vanillin was an ingredient recently. lol, I'm just glad that I like the 613 scent.

I've enjoyed watching the Beekman, Skinn and Isomer shows on evine because I've learned more about the various ingredients from these shows.

I had been using what I thought were better soap brands on my skin. But while they don't have the detergent type ingredients, they all use safonified palm and/or coconut oil.

During one of the Beekman presentations, Dimitri (from Skinn) popped and mentioned that the Beekman soaps use unsafonated oils which are pH neutral and don't break down the skin's acid mantle. -- It's taken about a month (which is the amount of time it takes to grow new skin) and I can feel that my skin isn't as dry as it was before. I don't need to use as much of the Wen oils to keep my skin whole and hydrated during the winter months. Thank you again for your thoughtful gift!! I'm impressed!!!

I'm really curious about the other scents for the Beekman soaps. The grapefruit scent was so surprisingly good, that I think probably all of the scents have been crafted with care.

btw, I'd love to catch up with you. My late afternoon (after 4pm ET)/evening is pretty well open, so if you have some free time and would like to give me a ring that would be wenderful!! There's also some info that I'd like to share with you.

I have so many bars of their soaps I could open my own shop. What I have will last me at least a year... or two? lol

I don't need anything but will be watching.
