I have used this product for several years. I never have to worry about additional sunscreen, and it keeps my face, neck and hands in good shape.

The hat is too big Is there a smaller one I have an average size women’s head

The shoes just felt very flimsy and I needed more support. My toes felt like they would pop through the holes when walking.

My bag arrived in reasonable time - under 2 weeks from UK to USA - as expected. The bag is beautifully understated with soft leather, a lovely smooth strap that will not snag delicate knits but wide enough to feel comfortable on the shoulder even when carrying a heavy tablet and a smooth running zipper. It is carefully finished - no loose threads or crooked stitching and was exceedingly well packaged so there are no creases or scratches. The price was exceptionally good, especially as it included shipping and tax. I will recommend and consider buying from this site in the future.

07/13/26 Seashell Handbag Hello, The bag itself is nice. However the ball of straw at the top makes it difficult to wrap the loop around it. The clasp needs to have a smooth surface or use a smooth metal clasp or a large faux pearl (like on other identical bags) or with a strong magnet or a clasp used on many top closure bags. I tried to push down the straw ball so it's easier to close. Tell your supplier about this issue.

Jelavu - Shelie Bamboo Crossbody Bag

The bag smells so horrible of toxic moth balls, I couldn’t even bring it in my house. My whole head hurt as soon as I opened it, and I had to wash my hands after touching it. It has been sitting outside for 24 hours and the smell is just as strong. I need a new one that doesn’t smell Iike this.

Jelavu - Sidney Black Medium Satchel Bag

These are well-made and very comfortable - was delighted when they arrived! The foot shape is very elegant (not too wide) which I think is not represented optimally in photo. More colors please!

Jelavu - Glimmr Dark Brown Sandal

Love this new bag. It has tons of room and a cute smaller bag inside. I love that it’s in neutral colors and compliments everything!
