Tiki Botanicals is a locally owned bath and body shop with a few locations scattered around Columbus. They have lovely products ranging from candles to shower steamers, soaps, hair care, and more. The prices are higher than your big box stores but that should be expected and I'm happy to pay them. I've tried a handful of their products (lotion and bath bombs) but my favorite so far has to be a coffee sugar scrub I got for exfoliating in the shower. It smells good and certainly smacks me awake on a groggy morning. It also leaves my skin feeling silky smooth. Whether you're shopping for yourself or a friend/loved one, I definitely suggest giving their Upper Arlington location a visit. They are on the west end of the shopping complex that houses Whole Foods, OPH, Ulta, etc. Happy shopping!

I absolutely love this place!! The cleanest, freshest products you will ever get, smell & put on your skin. It is very easy to get to with so many other stores/restaurants around it, perfect stop for a shopping day. I loved the worker there, he was amazing & so helpful. I love how you can take the candles back you buy & get them refilled when it runs out, Reuse, Recycle baby!! I got a candle, soaps, lotion, bath bombs, you name it, I am set for a full self care night. I throw the lotion in my purse, it is a perfect smell, non greasy lotion I can put on anywhere. The store itself is super clean and I will definitely be back. They should really have some sort of rewards program for me, haha.

I had been to Tiki Botanicals at their German Village location awhile back and didn't even notice they opened their second location in Upper Arlington. As you enter the shop, all the amazing fragrance surrounding the shop is relaxing. The staff is welcoming and very patient to answer my questions.They definitely have a lot of variety of product from body care, candle and much more. I always love their candle cause each of are special not only from the fragrance perspective. Each of the candle container are unique and come with different size and shape. Also, if you bring in any finished candle, they offer refill with a 10% discount.

This place smells amazing as soon as you walk through the doors. This is such a cute place where you can buy anything handmade to pamper yourself or for a gift. They have bath bombs, hand soap, lotion, scrubs, candles and so much more. I could easily stay at the store for hours and smell every single items. The gentleman at the register was super nice and explained where things were and gave a run down on some of the items that they had. I ended up getting the rose bouquet soap. It smells just like a rose! I cant stop smelling it. I would definitely go back to purchase other items at the store!.

Super cute shop - worth stopping in and picking up some goodies to treat yourself. Multiple locations around town. There is a lot of variety - something for everyone. The lotion is creamy and smells delicious. The soap smells amazing too!Looking forward to try out the shower steamers - they have one that is supposed to help with stuffy sinuses that the sales clerk recommended.

This was my first time coming here and it was super cute! The cashier was super nice and helpful. Gave options on different shower bombs, lotions and hand soaps. I was able to walk around n sniff all the wonderful products. He also told me the sale self was additional 15% off for Yelp customers as well. A lot of products have Shea butter n them which is so wonderful for the skin. They also had a buy 4 get 1 free sale( soaps, hand soaps, & bath bombs). Must go check it out!

I had an opportunity to visit this little gem in Upper Arlington last week and I loved every minute of it. Tiki's Botanicals specializes in handmade lotions, soaps, and candles, and the best part is that they have a large collection of some unique fragrances (Bourbon caramel anyone?) which makes this place a great gift store for that hard-to-please friend/family member. As great as the products are in the store, Joey, who was working the day that I visited, was extremely friendly, patient, and knowledgeable. I learned from Joey the history of the business, the other two locations, and so much more. The shea butter and the shower steamers looked and smelled amazing, and I also purchased a soap (Rose Bouquet) which smelled fantastic. Considering that everything here is handmade and "one of its kind", the prices are reasonable.I look forward to coming back here to continue to support this awesome small business.

What an absolutely adorable little shop. When you first walk in you are greeted with the most tantalizing smells. There is just about anything you could wish for to pamper yourself. Handmade soaps, lip scrubs, body care, bath bombs, candles and what I was most excited about...shower steamers! I left with a sampler of the eucalyptus spearmint shower steamers and shea butter lotion. The staff was friendly and helpful and I left with some lip scrubs, candles, soap and a cute little soap holder/scrubber because I love bar soap and this one looks washable (fingers crossed).

First of all, the aesthetics of this little shop is EVERYTHING! I was immediately greeted by the owner and store manager! The store manager was so helpful and answered all of my questions. You can tell that he really enjoys working at Tiki Botanicals and was very excited for this event! I was able to meet the owner on his way out. He was very friendly and excited about this new location opening! They literally have everything that you need and every scent you can think of! They have an entire wall of facial care (with testers) and a line of hair care, which I will definitely be back for! The dog / cat area immediately caught my attention, which I wasn't expecting when walking in to a small bath shop! I immediately grabbed the dog treats and catnip spray. The dog bones are made by Growlers, which is a nonprofit business in Columbus that provides employment, vocational training, and volunteer opportunities to individuals with disabilities. The catnip spray is apparently a big hit! The store manager was telling me about all of the satisfied customers who purchase it - so of course, I had to! I was excited for the goats milk soaps, but ended up opting for the honey oatmeal and cherry almond premium bar soaps. They smell amazing! They also have plenty of bath bombs, hand soaps, and lotions. As I was going to checkout, the store manager working brought out some new candles and had me smell the Lavender Lemonade. I couldn't resist! The candles are made with 100% soy wax. Apparently you can bring in your own jars and they have a variety of empty ones if you decide that you want another scent! There was an adorable cat jar, but I decided to leave it for another cat lover and purchased the lavender lemonade. He said the turnaround time for candles to be made is typically a day! I am obsessed with anything and everything eucalyptus spearmint, so I cannot wait to try the shower steamers followed by the shea butter cashmere lotion.

Good vibes, good scents and good products. I first visited their original store location in German Village and am excited to see they expanded into additional locations. The store in UA is small but jam packed with goodies. They have all kinds of soaps, washes, and lotions, but my favorite items are the candles. They are soy based and smell so good. This would be a perfect stop for holiday gifts for yourself or others. Add them to your "Nice" list!

Friendly workers and a huge selection of great smelling soaps, candles and more! You'd think all of the scents would be overpowering, but they aren't! You can buy a pre-filled candle from one of their cute selections or bring your own container to have them fill it up for you! A great place for home decor and local gifts, especially during the holidays. Even better, they're dog friendly!

This is a neat shop full of locally made bath products and candles in a huge variety of scents. I stopped in having heard that they offered a shampoo bar, and the very friendly and enthusiastic staff person told me I was just in time for the last one, and brought it out to me. There are so many selections when it comes to candles and soaps, and they were great at answering questions and giving recommendations. I ended up getting the Asian Tea Blossom, and am looking forward to trying out some more in the future! This location is in the Shops on Lane Avenue, and there is parking available in the shopping center lot, both in front and around back of the center.
