Each batch of our soap is handcrafted from scratch using time-honored traditions and techniques. We make our soaps the old fashioned way using the cold process method. This method retains the naturally occurring glycerin, which helps to moisturize your skin.

After blending the oils, the soap is combined with a solution of Lye and water. ALL soaps are made with the use of lye. The two (oils and lye solution) are combined together to create a chemical reaction that results in soap. Although lye is used to make soap, there is no lye left after the saponification process. Saponification simply explained: Water (or milks, herbal teas) + Fat (oils/butters) + Lye (sodium hydroxide) = Soap with glycerin retained. Once the oils and lye are mixed together, we may add some additives such as clays, herbs and essential oils. We do our best to keep our soap natural by only using clays and botanicals for coloring and essential oils for fragrances. But due to many customer requests, we have also added some soaps made with phthalate-free fragrance oils. You may also find from time to time some seasonal or limited editions soaps made with FDA approved micas for coloring.

The soaps are then hand poured into wooden molds and allowed to set for a few days. Then it is hand cut, racked and allowed to cure for 4~6 weeks.

Our individually hand cut bars are unique and weigh between 3.5 and 4.5 oz., but may vary slightly. Since each bar is handcrafted and cut, they will vary from batch to batch.

To extend the shelf life of your soap, store away from UV light or place in a plastic bag and store in a freezer when not in use. We also recommend you use a draining soap dish to store your soap in between uses as extend exposure to water will decrease the shelf life of your soap.
