Betty’s Blue is a well-balanced English lavender known for its upright habit, strong stems, and dependable performance. It forms a compact plant with silver-gray foliage that retains a soft green cast, giving it a clean look even out of bloom. In early summer, dark violet calyces hold mid-violet flowers that stand out clearly against the foliage.

This variety grows slightly taller than other dark-flowered favorites such as ‘Hidcote’ and ‘Loddon Blue,’ making it especially useful for cutting. The stems are straight and sturdy, and the flowers dry exceptionally well, which is why Betty’s Blue is widely used for potpourri, dried bundles, and craft work.

The fragrance is light and pleasant rather than intense, lending itself well to culinary uses and home projects. Plants bloom heavily in early summer and often produce a lighter second flush in autumn under good conditions.

It’s a reliable, versatile lavender and a long-standing favorite in our plantings.

Daily Staple Sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
I’ve been really impressed with this sunscreen—it’s become a daily staple for my face and hands. The SPF 70 gives great peace of mind, especially with regular sun exposure, and it feels lightweight rather than heavy or greasy. It absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave that thick white cast, which is a huge plus for everyday wear. On my face, it layers well under makeup without pilling, and on my hands, it doesn’t feel sticky or transfer onto everything I touch. I also appreciate that it holds up well throughout the day without needing constant reapplication (unless I’m outside a lot). Overall, it’s a reliable, high-protection sunscreen that’s comfortable enough to use every day.

Best sunscreen
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
My favorite sunscreen. Been buying if for 2 years and still a great product. It goes on easily and does not make your skin greasy or sweaty. It does not cause breakouts either.

Some white cast
Size: 3 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
Works well, but definitely leaves white cast. It did better for me than it did for my partner but it was hard to get this to rub in and lot look white on him. Smells decent. I will continue to use.

Your makeup won't get ruined! ❤️
Size: 0.47 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I'm new to skincare and I didn't know we were supposed to wear sunscreen! 😱 Turns out it's arguably the most important step of skincare. First, I like the texture of this sunscreen. It's not greasy, it's velvety and smooth. It feels nice on my skin. I used this for the first time yesterday, and I just want those of you to know who are considering buying this, it applies well against makeup! That was one of my main concerns. I did my skincare with this sunscreen as a final step, then put on my makeup. The sunscreen acted as a primer, honestly, so I skipped primer. When I reapplied the sunscreen hours later, my makeup didn't smear! Instead I had a nice, healthy glow to my skin. I actually think it enhanced my makeup; my makeup seemed to last longer than usual. If you find yourself to be TOO glowy after a while, just apply a bit of translucent powder and your makeup will stretch even longer. Bonus: It fits nicely in your purse! Good for people like me with a million things they insist on carrying around.
