Mom’s Amazon Favorites: Oils, Herbs, Skin Care & More
At the end of 2022 Amazon’s revenue was nearly $514 billion, making it the world’s 2nd largest retailer. Like the 168 million US Amazon Prime customers, I spend a bit of time and money on this massive retailer’s website.
Fortunately, Amazon provides the opportunity for many small businesses to reach a wider customer base. Over the years I’ve discovered and researched a number of different small businesses and have become a regular customer via their Amazon storefronts. The vast majority of my Amazon favorites are from these small businesses.
